Can it be SPQR: The Empire's Darkest Hour?

Well SPQR doesn't look old enough, but could be.

@Eagle - oh yeah - I forgot (your loss you don't play them, but it's all a matter of personal taste really - no point arugeeing there :cheers: ).

Screenshots for SPQR

no it was a really old graphics based game, we ran it on the windows 3.1 386's at school when i was 8... so about 8 years ago..

Avarisius? I don't think you were actually transported to ancient times there though... that Avarisius actually already lived there.

This strangely enough sounds like Settlers 2... :whistle:

Avarisius's an adventure game in the same style as the very first Sierra adventure games... Kings Quest, Space Quest, etc. Another one in the series that I know of, is Avaracus or something like that... 's been ages, so could be that I got the names a bit off. I'll see if I can get more info on it.

it was roman times and ou treked around the city. grr ths is bugging me now.

I was just about to post a topic about The Dig. PLEEESE post it on this site!

Nope, sorry, still for sale and far too big.
