I need help from fellow patricians in possibly finding games in latin.

I was surprised to find that there is actually a commercial game available with full latin voiceovers and subtitles: Nicholas Eymerich: Inquisitor episode 1. Sadly the game isn't very good and the studio released part 2 without the latin feature.

I have later found that there was a guy translating snes roms into latin. The madman actually finished Zelda and FFI, but gave up on his big project midway(FFVI, a pity it wasn't finished). I also found a thread about a project translating CK2 into latin but it seems to have been abandoned before getting anywhere.

Is there anything else? I assume there are some fan translations around, but google is hard on such niche things.

I found out that the FFVI translation was finished afterall! Silly me, I had no idea the game was called "FFIII" in the US originally. It seems to be quite good, I have downloaded and will replay the game in latin after all these years. Hopefully I can still enjoy it, I have abandoned jrpgs in my late teens.

If anyone knows of anything else please let me know. I am studying latin and always found that games were excellent means to learn a new language.

Hipsters don't know latin, you faggot. If they did I would be able to find more games in the language.

There are already effective methods to teach classical languages and a lifetime's worth of material to utilize it not to mention its quality. I suppose having FFVI in latin is προς χαριν....

Glory of the Roman Empire.
I don't know if the other Ancient Rome themed games from HaemimontGames also have a Latin mode.
