0 A.D. is a free, open-source, cross-platform real-time strategy (RTS) game of ancient warfare. It's a historically-based war/economy game that allows players to relive or rewrite the history of twelve ancient civilizations, from Iberia to Mauryan India, each depicted at their peak of economic growth and military prowess. Developed using Pyrogenesis, a ground-breaking new game engine custom-built to suit this project, 0 A.D. will give players a rich and entertaining real-time gaming experience.
Greek (Hellene) colonists gain a foothold in lower Italy, but before they conquer the native peoples, they must gather enough resources to expand. Females pick berries for much needed food, while men mine nearby precious metals and lumber nearby trees. Expansion will be tricky, as the adjoining territory, along with its resources, is controlled by the enemy. The cliffs help defend against an attack by sea, but will they forge a large enough force to deal with their new environment?
