The year is 180 A.D., our beloved emperor, Marcus Aurelius, mysteriously died in his sleep. His only son, Commodus, has taken the throne. Commodus rules with irrational fear, killing anyone or anything that threatens his power. The glory that once was Rome is all but lost. The Senate is too weak to challenge Commodus and Rome’s elite are too scared to show dissent. Rome’s fate lies in your hands, a mere slave. You must raise an army, develop your political power, expand the reaches of your influence and rise above the masses. There was once a dream called Rome… It is up to you to bring back the glory of Rome and crown yourself Caesar.

Treachery: The Rise to Caesar is an exciting, interactive, and addicting social networking game that lets you step into the shoes of a Roman slave who must raise an army, develop political power, and build a kingdom in order to overthrow Commodus, rise to Caesar, and restore the glory back to Rome!
