Media contents on historical sources rising in popularity make the people have an interest in the historically themed video games. Historically themed video games are studied from practical point of view, just like edutainment, but studies as an entertainment aren't enough. Historically themed video games have lots of advantage, historical fact telling, fictitious entertainment and easy accessibility. There is a need for broad vision to merit of historically themed video games. In this study, we present new analysis tool which is consisted with three axis, time, connection and reality for historical simulation video game. Example games are investigated on entertainment, development, education side with this tool.
