Roman Mysteries
Roman Mysteries is a new series of Roman themed (who would have guessed?) point'n'click games from The BBC. Only part one is available right now, with another 4 levels being released/unlocked over the coming month. The game looks and sounds great, as you might expect from The BBC, and whilst there's quite a lot of text to read through, which their games frequently suffer from, this time it's not too intrusive (imho) and actually adds to, rather than detracts from, the game play. The goal in this episode is to find a ring, good luck [subbed by Biggs].

Ahem, it is intended for children of primary/elementary school age - click on the green blob with the purple C on it at the top of the page to see what I mean...

If you have more than one digit in your age, you're way too old for the game.

a lovely game, I hope the other episodes are as well done. It is very simple but for those who might need some help here you go

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
First look on the desk see anything? A piece of paper perhaps? click use item keep it it's a hint who made those markings? that's right a bird yay!!!. next you need to go to the garden. Talk to the slave ask where else to look for the ring. Big dog guarding the necropolis? no problem pick up the bone. not telling where it is, find it it's there. look at the soup yuck. can't pick up the rope? no problem we'll ge tit in a bit. click your screen over and see the big dog. click use item then click on the bone you picked up. a cute little screen will pop up showing the dog getting the bone close it. go through to the necropolis. On the first screen are some olives get them. click your screen to the left do you see the nest in the tree? good too high though to look in. a rope would be useful. there are some figs there but you don't need them collect them anyway might come in handy in another episode. Now back to the garden. put the olives in the soup (click pot use item then click olives and use item) mm soup looks better now so talk to the slave. ask since you fixed his soup can you borrow the rope. Of course you can so pick it up. go back to the necropolis and use the nest with the rope. another little screen will pop up showing the ring in the nest. Close that and you're done after you get thanked of course and receive a curious object. really that was so simple did you really need the walkthrough? oh well enjoy the game

Good starter game, I'm going to let my stepdaughter play it. She loves doing the pnc games with me, but a lot of them are above her 8yo limit or too violent. Thanks for adding it!
