CHARIOT WARS Released

OM Entertainment announces the release of CHARIOT WARS, an arcade racing game with a couple of twists: That it utilizes horse-drawn chariots, and that there is a single-player story mode involving a murder mystery along with single-player and multiplayer races. This opportunity to get in touch with your inner Ben Hur is available for Windows on Steam. A launch trailer shows off the game, and here's word:

In 128AD, Emperor Hadrian announces a chariot race spanning the entire empire from Rome to Helvetia. The night before the first race, one of the charioteers from Judea is found murdered in his quarters. An unknown woman’s body is also found on the floor.

The head of the emperor’s Praetorian guard, Quintus Octavian, suspects Rome’s constantly feuding noble families of masterminding the murders. Emperor Hadrian asks Quintus Octavian to take the position of the murdered Judean charioteer and represent Judea in the upcoming chariot race. As Quintus continues his investigation, he is drawn inexorably into the murky world of Roman politics.
