Imperator: Rome is now available DRM-free.

With the death of Alexander the Great, his four successors are squabbling over his once sprawling empire. Make your own legacy as you navigate the politics, enforce your rule, or exploit the trade routes of a land in turmoil. Will you go with democracy or monarchy? Quash a rebellion or try to avoid it? Keep your citizens happy or subdued? History is waiting your move. Make it grand.

Grab the Deluxe Edition for the Art book, wallpapers, and the Hellenistic Flavor Pack.
Hello everyone!

We'll have an Imperator: Rome multiplayer stream on the GOG Twitch channel twitch.tv/gogcom today at 6pm UTC/8pm CEST/2pm EDT/11am PDT.

The participants all come with lots of different skill levels and approaches. It should be really fun! :)

skirtish: Seriously, why isn't it? It says "multiplayer" and doesn't mention a third-party account. This kind of limitation needs to be disclosed before purchase.

It's also worth noting this game doesn't have GOG cloud saves, but Paradox account/3rd party cloud saves -- so it should probably be removed from the game card. (Please, GOG, just make it work with Galaxy for cloud saving rather than this bullshit of a Paradox account?)

And why TF is a Paradox account required for MP if the MP is only between GOG users?

a Paradox account is needed because that allows Paradox to know you without needing you to have a steam account... also Mp is not only between GOG users because the Paradox launcher works as well

Paradox doesn't NEED to know about me. GOG should just implement Galaxy cloud saves for this game on their own (like they do for most games).

As for multiplayer: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/status-and-future-of-paradox-multiplayer.1168127/ GOG and Steam are isolated. If they'dve just implemented Galaxy, they could be together already.

Paradox controls this game... that is the deal gog made to be allowed to sell it & they are not going to change it

as for multiplayer... read it again mate, you missed the bit that says paradox versions of the game work i.e, you can use your key to download the paradox game or you can just wait until Paradox finish building their new back end server
