0 A.D. Is A Free, Open-Source, Historical Real Time Strategy (RTS) Game.

“Macedonia or Macedon was an ancient kingdom on the periphery of Archaic and Classical Greece, and later the dominant state of Hellenistic ...”

Imagine this kind of introduction in a history lesson...would you be cut off? Would you sleep in class? Would you start fiddling around?

Well, today we’re presenting 0 A.D. is a Free, Open-Source, Historical Real Time Strategy (RTS) Game. It’s a game which students (why not parents too?!) play to learn historical facts by having some time understanding how past generations dealt with life challenges! The students would go back in time in encounter these generations and understand better their challenges in a given historical time! What an excellent way to bring history so near our life today!

Students would not be passive listeners but feel empowered to see things from a different point of view. It will surely help them to see today’s life from a different perspective and be more prepared to face challenges!

It’s an open source game which means that it could be played on mac, windows and linux OS.
