Overview

History is a cable TV channel owned by A+E Networks, along with sister channels H2 and Military History. Video games that use the History branding are generally budget titles, and few are well-received by critics. Most History-branded games are based on a period of actual history rather than a particular show, with the exception of those that tie in with History's less historical programming, such as Ice Road Truckers and Pawn Stars.
