Salammbô: Battle for Carthage

Set against the backdrop of the tumultuous 3rd century BC, Salammbô: Battle for Carthage immerses you in a world scarred by war, as the once-mighty city of Carthage succumbs to its arch-enemy, Rome, during the first Punic War. Amidst the chaos, you follow the gripping tale of Salammbo, the daughter of the Carthaginian commander, who finds herself torn between love and loyalty when she becomes infatuated with Matho, the leader of the mercenaries laying siege to her city.

Inspired by Gustave Flaubert's novel and the artistic vision of Philippe Druillet, this game places players in the heart of one of antiquity's greatest conflicts. Navigate through perilous gardens filled with toxic fumes and engage in strategic battles on the treacherous Mount Solitude. With a captivating 360° panorama showcasing a dark and dangerous world, players are treated to a unique experience.

Accompanied by the powerful score of Dvorak's "New World Symphony," Salammbô: Battle for Carthage also features a series of 3D frescoes, creating a player's journal that not only chronicles your adventures but also offers insights into ancient history.
