“Greek mythology nerd, so I absolutely love this game. There's some little things I'd like to see like formations, artillery, and heroes not being a single unit in mythos mode, but overall I love this game. If you're not…”
“I originally bounced off from Troy when I tried it when it was free on Epic, but after enjoying Total War: Pharaoh (Dynasties) immensely, and not finding Warhammer campaigns all that fun despite the spectacle, I decided…”

“Really big let down from CA. This game is so disappointing. Even after so many years from release, it still feels like its in Beta. If I was involved - I would demand this would not go out in its current state. The…”

“Probably one of the unexpectedly best entries into the series to date. There's a nice attention to detail when it comes to the larger story of Iliad and each member of that conquest. The ability to change between…”

“Terrible game. Every campaign is me vs the entire map. Literally, people are sailing ships across the map just to attack my cities and then run away. The ai is so poorly written. It's as if I'm the only person playing…”

“This has to be the worst total war game of all time. Its unmanageable the penalties for large armies to extreme oh and AI seems to be able to must plenty without penalty”
“the game ideas ok. but its too petty too much micro managing. not only do you have to manage 4 resources but god favour and unit up keep plus too many rebellions so you end up in too many stupid easy defences of city…”

“Buy the game on when Its on sale not worth it at all, games feels poorly done and rushed.”
“Fun? yes, but is it really worth the price? only buy it on sale (it usually is on like 80 percent)”

“I keep trying to like this game, but I just can't. Lot of my issues are minor ones due to how animations are handled in the game. Examples: If playing on any mode other than the realistic one, heroes are unable to march…”

“Wasted $10 because every time I launch the game it black screens my computer. I can hear the audio and even hear the menu sounds, but I can't see anything. Tried multiple launch options on Steam to launch in windowed…”

“As much as I want to love this game, and while the early campaign is genuinely fun, I can’t fully recommend it. This isn’t a positive review so much as a neutral one, and that mainly comes down to one major issue the endgame. It’s a slog and even by Total War standards, that’s…”

— a player, Steam review · 166 hrs played“The kind of video game you see in a TV show playing in the background. Neat visuals. Absolutely abysmal UI and campaign map”
