Swing Low: Race To Rome


Chariot-racing in the era of Imperial Rome has never really been a hot topic for game design, but that's all changes now with Race To Rome, a chariot racing game from Shockwave. You can literally select some horses, club other drivers, and potentially win the day... Okay, okay, it's actually pretty primitive, but I'm can say that it's okay for a browser game. And I can't help thinking of chariot racing with affection after a youth spent reading Asterix comics. I never did watch that Asterix At The Olympic Games live-action film, however. And I probably won't. I'm rambling. Sorry. Look over there!
