Brainstorming an Idea

Whilst discussing my options for this project with Alan at the start of the summer we decided that I should create a piece work which is more personal to me, something which I take an interest in outside of university. 

After discussing it for a while I came to the conclusion that I should create an environment for a video game which was based in an Ancient Roman setting. 

I have chosen the Romans as a base for this project because History and the Romans in general really interest me. 

Questions I will need to answer in order to come up with an idea for a game;

- What Genre of game will it be?(I.E, Puzzle, Adventure, Role Playing etc)

- Why is it set in this particular time period?(Roman time period)

- Who will play the game?(What Age and Gender will the game be aimed at)

- What art style will the game be?

- Is there an objective to the game? and if so what is it?

These are a few of the main things that I will need to look at in order to establish how the game will pan out over the remainder of the project.
