Revolutionary Choices

Revolutionary Choices is an innovative strategy game about the American Revolution. The choices you make decide the fate of the Patriot cause and the American republic. To win the war, you must take into account not only actions on the battlefield, but also key events faced by the Revolutionary generation in both the Continental Congress and the individual states. Victory is ultimately attained by defeating the British, but you must also establish and protect the high ideals of universal liberty and natural rights while nurturing the fragile union of the states. There are soldiers to recruit, armies to supply, and money to raise to fight the war for independence. As you play, you will encounter many historical figures from diverse backgrounds who assist you in achieving victory. Fight your way to Yorktown while keeping morale strong among troops and citizens alike. Court alliances with France, Spain, and Holland. Defend your cities and utilize your scouts, spies, and agents to ensure victory against the British. Independence was attained over the course of eight long years, but with Revolutionary Choices you can learn about America’s struggle in the course of a few hours!
