I was expecting an interactive filmic experience where you explored a bit of a few ancient sites, instead I found a series of short chat with a few folks and find a few items games with graphics that sprang from the mind of a slightly mad artist. The games themselves won't blow you away, but they do give you enough immersion to be interesting. You are for a few minutes transported back in time to an artist's rendering of three important places where you are an important person. While you only interect with a few folks, they seem pretty authentic to the time.

It is the art that makes this game stand out. It is hard to describe but it feels like the game's artist decided to have fun and create a sort of customized experience for each place that fits but feels more surreal than real. Without this the app would be much less memorable so congratulations on finding ways around the technical limits of a 'phone' game with creativity.
