 Excellent Strategy Game and Good History May 13, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Fun and entertaining as well as informative. This game keeps my attention for an hour or two every time I sit down to play it. It also made me so intrigued about the historical events surrounding the premise of the game that i bought a World History book and have been reading that as well. This is a great strategy game which explores many of the different elements of civilization(s) making for a truly interesting experience throughout.
A nice game,but could be better. May 7, 2007
Age of Empires is about empire building. It isice to take part in actual historical events that happened a long time ago and build your empire. The game play is nice but the computer always tries to overwhelm the player into loosing so quickly. If the gameplay was a little easier, that would be nice.
 Good, but I spoiled it by playing the sequel first. December 31, 2006

This is good. It probably woud have been better if I hadn't played and LOVED the sequel first, but it's still good. Pretty good graphical effort, and cool units, but I couldn't identify all the things that you could get because no civilization has everything and there isn't a technology line (meaning you can't see all technologies and units. I couldn't figure out how to get a chariot before I realized I had to research something.) It was a letdown that they didn't have a history guide because I'm really interested in that sort of history.
Overall thought:
Buy this but only if you don't have the sequel, and if you like this get the sequel. ;)

That Special Feeling December 29, 2005
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Age of Empires is for me, very special. It was the first video game I had ever played, and I must say, for a first, it was pretty damn cool. I marveled at this game for hours, and indeed, still do today. I recommend this game to anyone who is just getting used to computer games simply because it is really simple, but by no means is it easy....
Age of Empires was the first RTS (Real Time Strategy). This game took the world by storm, and infact is the best selling PC game of ALL time! The reason for this, I think, is the playablility. The random map engine allows players to have tens of thousands of maps, not to mention that the computer AI reacts differently in every game, and there for plays differently, leaving the player with nearly infinate different games.
Basically, this game is really good for the gaming newbie, and will serve as a great tutorial on how computer games work and how to beat them. Its almost like if you play these new games like Halo and Medal of Honor and such, and then you go to play Mario, and its hard as hell. In Mario, you dont have all those little things to make your life easier, its all skill. The very same can be said for this game. Its still fun for me to come back to it every now and then, and I find that as I get older, i appreciate it more and more. I strongly reccomend you give this game a try.
