I used to watch a buddy play this game when I was younger. I saw it available on the play store and decided to snag it. Woah is this game hard. I remember it being very detailed in how you manage everything. Loving the game but trying hard to learn how to not get attacked […]

It’s everything I remember and super fun to play! Only reason it isn’t 5 stars is because the commands don’t register right sometimes. The units you select wont always do what you want them to do and the game also has a habit of selecting random units/cities instead of the ones you are tapping on […]

It’s the full Rome Total War experience. Just like on PC. but the controls are standing in the way of a great experience. Some simple tweaks would fix it. Tapping on a unit on the map should only select them, the next tap should be move/attack. NOT ‘add another unit to selection’. Every battle I’ll […]

The Android version of Rome Total War does not disappoint. However, there are some caveats to the experience. Rome Total War was designed to be played with keyboard and mouse, and thus trying to actually play battles is incredibly difficult and frustrating due to limited input via touch controls. I was wishing I had a […]

This game is almost exactly the same as the PC version I spent countless hours playing. The only notable exception is the touch controls, which can be frustrating during battles. I can get past this though, bc naturally a keyboard and mouse is going to be superior for this type of game. Overall I would […]

I don’t even know where to begin. This game is ported PERFECTLY from PC. The controls are amazing, the touch screen enhances the fun. All of the battles are in depth, controlling every unit in the game. I like that I can still use the original amount of units, rather than the reduced amounts, just […]

I am a HUGE fan of the Total War series and I never had the opportunity to play Rome. I fell in love with Empire though, so I really enjoy this game. I do wish that putting troops into formation was a lot smoother, but what can I expect for a mobile game? Might i […]

Total War is one of my all time fav PC games. It has been ported to mobile very well. Battle controls are too difficult in small screen though. But worse than that and infuriating is that the save doesn’t always save. At first I thought it was me..maybe clicking x instead of check. But I […]

Initially rated 1 Star because after initial time launching it, the game continually crashed. Customer support commented a solution for me in my first review and it seems to be working. apparently, you shouldn’t sync your Google account for saving gameplay or you could encounter issues. I didn’t quite understand the instructions but I went […]

this is pretty amazing how well this works on my Note9 and I’m a busy guy so it’s great how at the end of my break time at work I could just close the game and when I open it the game picks up right where I left off. genius. My only issue with the […]

I can’t even explain how many hours I put into this game as a teen on PC. This was always one of my absolute favorite games and here it is 20 years later, and it’s still one of my absolute favorite games, only now on mobile. Plus, I love it even more now since all […]

It’s actually pretty good strategy game for 10 bucks. I’ve played all PC versions and love them. But this is great on my phone so far. Runs smooth. Very similar to PC version. Some differences but mainly the same. Yall did a good job. All total wars are totally awesome. Any of them. Highly recommended […]

Everything works fine, any other review will tell you that. But the single biggest issue I have is that the game needs to validate a license. This requires an internet connection after some time which seems to be a couple days. I would not have purchased the game had that been clearly stated. Instead this […]

This is one of the best ports I’ve ever seen! Well done! No BS, just Total War: Rome; on your phone. The interface could do with some refining(because it’s almost exactly like the PC version, and you can’t really hover the mouse to get info, and things like that, etc[just minor tweaks or maybe just […]

Only logged a couple of hours so far, but what i have played has been extremely close to the PC version. it is refreshing to have such a solid game on Android that isn’t milking us for cash with IAPs. Instead a fair up-front price for a full game experience is what I’ll spend my […]

After trying to unsuccessfully install a 10 yr old copy onto my PC, I installed this version onto my Pixel 7 Pro. Well done! Given the processing speed of the Pixel, the load times are considerably less than the PC. Gameplay is identical. Controls are fairly intuitive after only a few gaming sessions. Live battles […]

I didn’t grow up playing this game on PC or its franchise and I’ve never been to happy with typical war/strategy game on mobile devices. It seems like they mostly focus on base building and not really into war and strategy tactics. This game fixes that and has so many ins and outs that I […]

While I had been aware of the Total war games for sometime, this is my first actual experience with it and I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys strategy games. It runs smoothly on my Pixel 2, the graphics are good, considering when it was released, and the gameplay itself is in depth and […]

(4/5)February 10, 2025

It’s amazing to play this classic game on android, but the controls for battles are lacking. You don’t have the level of control of the PC version, and it’s more cumbersome to do anything but basic commands. A big battle would get out of hand. I recommend setting combat difficulty to easy and autoresolving most […]

This new update is great! The game is way more intuitive and far more enjoyable now. 12/10, I’ve already recommended it to people lol. If you guys can pull it off, Rome 2 ported like this would be unfathomably based… I hate Gauls… Edit: I noticed maybe a memory issue where after being open a […]
