"ROMAN TOWN does a fantastic job of presenting world history in a fun and entertaining context for kids. Part simulation game, part puzzle game, part mystery -- and with a great variety of mini-game material thrown in -- this is an educational game that shouldn't bore kids for even a second" Full Review

"By creating a game based around simulating an archaeological dig, adding in a mystery to solve about what happened to this town and then magically adding children who lived back in 79 A.D. as characters in the story, "Roman Town" has found a winning combination. This is educational software kids will want to play. As they play to unearth rare finds, their parents can celebrate too for finding this hidden treasure of uncommonly good learning software."

Who isn’t fascinated by the past? Treasures emerging from the ground, remnants of past civilizations, exotic cultures that are alien and yet so similar to our own...

Archaeology captures our imaginations.  Unfortunately, for most of us, archaeology is a fantasy. We watch digs on TV, visit museums and try to imagine what it would have been like to live so far in the past; we fantasize about finding, or even just touching the exotic treasures behind the glass. Archaeology is engaging, but inaccessible: it takes years of study of ancient history, culture and language to be an archaeologist.  But what if it were possible to package the archaeological experience in a fun, easy to use, interactive product?  That question is what led me to create Roman Town.
