Our take on CHARIOT WARS
The game combines racing with a murder mystery, so its focus is split between competition and narrative investigation. That dual structure gives the campaign story context but leaves less room for a racing-only format centered solely on driving events.
What is CHARIOT WARS?
Set in 128AD, CHARIOT WARS combines arcade chariot racing with a murder mystery presented through a digital graphic novel.
In the singleplayer Championship, Quintus Octavian takes the place of a murdered Judean charioteer and investigates two killings while competing in races.
