"Splicing history with Hollywood, Troy is an exciting new take on the Total War formula. Sega&s;s immense strategy series continues to snowball, absorbing and shedding new ideas, somehow keeping momentum despite that core gameplay remaining virtually untouched."
Read original review"A Total War Saga: Troy is a good addition to the franchise, but is not recommended for new players. However, fans of the historical setting Total War games shouldn&s;t hesitate to check this one out."
Read original review"A Total War Saga: Troy plays it safe in some slightly disappointing ways, but brings enough new to the table that I would appreciate seeing its ideas make their way over to the next mainline Total War game."
Read original review"As a first foray, it is an incredibly impressive effort from Creative Asselby Sofia, a team that has done incredible justice to one of the most important tales of the ancient world."

"Vast, beautiful, and every bit as epic as its subject matter, Troy&s;s designation as a &s;Saga&s; doesn&s;t reflect a brief spin-off, but a soaring remix of the Iliad, with just the occasional annoyance or backwards step."
