Remember it? Heck, I heavily "borrowed" from it:

Indeed you did, Cap'n Henry ...

The game is awesome! I made it a ways through except I just can't jump high enough to keep the Chariots from running me over!

Will have to try more to get all the way to the end.

Keep trying, Rob. I think that you'll enjoy the "finale" ...

We all to thank Andi for telling us about Bart's latest (and greatest) creation ...

Oh so cool.

Gotta have Romans, gotta have buildings
Am I the only one who finds the bending at the knees a little odd for Playmobil figures? It's almost disturbing in a way. Like they have all been lying to me all this time...

Wow, the buidlings are quite cool. Seem that they really could come true, especially those from the first picture. You really can recognize that they are built from original PM parts (some of the larger buildings in the second pic doesn't look like that).

Ah .. the bending of the knees ...

No lies, Tim ...

It happens late at night ... after we've all gone to sleep ...

(Set your video camera with a timer tonight and you might catch them.) ...

Or, write to Bart at Collectobil for the "secret" ...

All the best and good luck, ...

Finally got it to run right, and you are absolutely correct Richard - it is worth the effort to see the end segment!

Very cool Bart! I am amazed at the animation sequences - I am waiting for a full-length movie! (Why not? Lego has done it with their Bionicle line, and Mega-Blocks has done it with their Dragons line...)

They sure seem to be heading that way. Each new game seems to have an even bigger intro movie section.

I loved the game it was really fun!

I think it had very good computer animation in it too.

The hardest match in the ring was the last one. It took me
ages to complete because the chariots kept on knocking me over!!!

I agree, Mawson ... I think that this is by far the best game ever produced by Playmobil !!!

I would love to see it expanded into a full CD video game that we could buy !!!

And, a movie, Cap'n Henry and Tim ...

Over the weekend I loaded this game at home (due to dial-up, it took over an hour!

).

But it was well worth it to be able to let the kids play it (I had already done so at "work"

).
They really loved it, and in fact as soon as they were done, Merboy went downstairs to recreate the battles using out only gladiator (this year's Special)!

BTW, Sirena managed to get through the game on her own, but Merboy still needs a little help.

I just played this game again, first time in a year.

The movie portions show figures and buildings that haven't appeared in the Roman theme yet.

Does anybody know if these things are likely to appear, or if this is artistic license on the part of Playmobil?

Oh, pretty sure I saw Mary running for cover just before the Romans attack with their fireballs!
