Horrible Histories Ruthless Romans is a Improvement game available on the DS. It can be played in Thirdperson modes.

Horrible Histories Ruthless Romans is a Improvement game. Self improvement games tap into the popular trend in exercise, workouts and therapy. Experiences as diverse as Brain Training on Nintendo DS and Wii-Fit on the Nintendo Wii have popularised the idea that games can be about more than just having fun - they can improve your brain, body and even mental outlook on life.

Horrible Histories Ruthless Romans can be played in a Thirdperson mode. Third Person games view the world from over the right shoulder of the character being controlled. This enables you to see the character you are controlling as well as their surrounds. Although not as immersive as first person, third person games enable more complex moves and interactions with the environment.

Domestic Gamer review Sat, 17 Oct 2009

Horrible Histories Ruthless Romans on the Nintendo DS brings the bestselling grizzly history books for kids to the portable gaming genre. Following the same theme as the books the games takes a no nonsense approach to history leaving in all the nasty bits, but done in a fun and factual way.

History was always pretty dull at school as far as I can remember. The only project I recall doing is the Second World War, which my Mum said wasn't proper history anyway. It was handy to be able to phone my granny up and ask her things. Anyway, I wish we'd had something like Horrible Histories to make it all much more fun.
