In 264 BC, Hannibal’s proud city has just been overrun by its rival, Rome in the first punic war. Tired of waiting to be paid, the mercenaries who fought for Cathage against Rome revolted and laid siege to the city. At the very heart of the massacres and disruption, Salammbo the daughter of the Shophet Hamilcar, commander of the Carthagian forces, falls in love with the chief of the rebels, Matho, who is leading the war against the city.

You play as Spendius, escaped slave and close friend of Matho, exploring the intriguing history of the mercenaries who thought against Carthage. Spendius is a survivor and an opportunist, rather than a conqueror. He is a man who stays in the shadows, more suited to slipping away in the night into an enemy city than confronting an enemy face to face...
