i love this game. at first when u play it seems so simple and uneventful. yet to play is a whole different story. this is a great way for adults to just relax and play, an even better way for families to hang out and have some fun. i recommend this game to any one.
the game offers basic math; counting adding and so forth. i love the fact that the game jump started my 8 son into strategic thinking and reasoning. its also combined with social interation, comprehension,& logic. my kids have so much fun with this game, they love to teach their friends that don't know how to play.

Talk about dissapointment...
I went for this game hoping it would be kind a streamlined version, with better design and pieces, of the old and out-of-print Avalon Hill "Circus Maximus", a great but very disjointed game, but that captured the flavour of the races like no game before or after.
Nope. Ave Caesar is an old style "roll the dice and move" game. Nothing more than that. Yes, the dice are replaced by cards and, since the players have a limited amount of cards and three of them at each time in their hands, it sure makes room for some decision making. But, at its core, it's still a "roll the dice and move" game. And, after playing games like Speed Circuit and even Formula D (which has dice, but a whole other concept), I simply cannot find Ave Caesar a good game.
I understand, however, how it can be a good introcutory game for kids, since the cards use will get them to planing their moves more thant the usual games children play at 7, 8 , 9 years of age, I guess. It's a shame that such luxurious and beattiful box comes with such a weak game inside.
Do yourself a favor: get an used copy of CIRCUS MAXIMUS and have one hell of a funny time.

Racing the Old-Fashioned Way

Racing board games are exciting but in them players usually have little or no interaction with each other. Hence the many racing games that involve guns on cars or car battles in some way so that players will have to interact with each other. Back in the day, the Romans had popular racing events with chariots and horses in which they tried to beat each other by getting in front of each other or trying to force each other into walls.
Ave Caesar is a game that tries to re-create this race formula. And it succeeds marvelously! Players pick out their color of chariot that they will race and then they have just enough cards in their race deck to make it around the track three times. Sometimes you have to decide to take the inner lane or the outer lane depending on where your opponents are racing at. And if that weren't enough, each racer must either, on the first or second lap, drive by Caesar's box and shout "Ave Caesar!".
The game is easy to learn and fun to play. It is playable solo or with two players but as the number of players increases so too does the strategy. My only negative about this game is that, although there are two tracks provided, I would have like to have had another two tracks on another board come with the game. But leaving that aside this is a marvelously designed game. It is easy to learn, easy to play, strategically deep, and re-creates the Romans chariot races very well.
This IS racing..... the old-fashioned way!
