Ever failed a history test/exam and felt, “Damn, I wish there was an easier way to learn this stuff?” Luckily for you, there is. Games, the most addictive things on the planet, can now be educational. But to what extent do they teach you about history? Not all of them are really accurate. Here’s a list of 15 historically accurate games:

7. Total War: Rome 2

The eighth title in the Total War series, Rome 2 was a massive commercial success and stretched way beyond any of the other seven Total War titles. Rome 2 gives emphasis to accurate historical detailing of the Roman campaign, which begins somewhere around 272 B.C. and lasts for over 300 years. Control on of the strongest forces in history as you demolish, destroy, divide and conquer.

6. Civilization 5

Civilization doesn’t want to give you just a snippet of history but the entire version in condensed form. Build an army from prehistoric times as you lead your army into the future on a procedurally generated map, conquering either through research, exploration, diplomacy expansion, economic development or plain ol’ military conquest. The Civilization series is highly acclaimed and one of the most fun titles you’ll ever play.
