Vissavald: Hello to all.

I'm interested in games of any genres that dedicated to Antiquity, more preferable to Ancient Greece, though Rome, Egypt and other themes are welcome too (safe Far East and Japan, sorry).
You may also be interested in Treasure's GOG MIx that deals with this very exact subject :)

Treasure: It doesn't actually deal with this very exact subject, as my aim was more to show appearances of Greece from all time periods, and I also included Greek islands that for long were not unified with their Greek brethren, and many still aren't today (e.g. Cyprus). You could consider I tried to raise awareness about the multiple faces of Greece, beyond and over just mythology.

Vissavald: Thanks, Judas, but I think I know EVERY game on GOG that use the Ancient Greece or Antiquity setting :) And I don't think that Crusader Kings, Hearts of Iron or Apache Longbow would have anything common with Ancient Greece :D (that's the nature of GOGMixes, strange and deceptive).

Treasure: Author of the mentioned gogmix here. Well, my gogmix was never meant to be about Ancient Greece, as I personally think that Ancient Greece is rather overrated. It's point is to show games that generally include Greece in all time periods, either as a playable faction (in strategy games), or include Greek locations as a cameo. Part of the aim was to show the multiple faces of Greece in gaming and/or help fellow Greek gamers who might have wanted to have Greece as a playable faction. I included the games about Ancient Greek mythology only because that's the first thing foreigners think of when they hear about Greece (though nowadays they probably think more about Greece's current condition, but I digress), and because indeed some appearances of Greek stuff are generic Greek ruins, that do reflect somewhat the historic past though (e.g. the Greek ruins under Instnbul in Indy and the Emperor's Tomb, because Constantinople was Greek before it was conquered by the Turkish).
Tl;dr -my gogmix isn't strictly about ancient Greece, as that wasn't the aim of my making it, but it might bring some awareness of the fact Greece isn't just the ancient one...
Oops sorry. Just wanted to advertise your GOG Mix regardless since it does deal with Greece :P
