After playing the game, Rivers and Ladders:Roman disaster edition I have some reviews for the game. I would first like to say that this game is very educational and great for kids. It teaches us about the disasters that happened in Rome in the early centuries. I learned about the mount Vesuvius eruption and how it killed many people and few escaped. I also learned about the central Asian drought and how it affect the Roman Empire. I also learned about the two plagues that effects much of Europe. The Antonine plague and Athens plague which killed lots of people. I di some of my own research and found that the plague was believed to be caused by smallpox or measles. I did my own research on these topic and found much information that the game includes. One detail I thought was smart that the game included was how fast the volcano erupted. It tells us the details we need to know to have an image of what happened on these tragic days. Another thing I learned in my research was about the fire in rome. I learned that the blaze spread quickly through the town because of the wind that was going on that day. This game is very good and I recommend it for classrooms and kids.
I tried to post the picture and i do not know if it will come up because it is not showing right now.
