Pros Extremely addictive. I just can't stop playing it!
Cons Population limit.
Recommended it? Yes

I just can?t stop playing this game. Am I addicted? Possibly. Microsoft?s AOE happens to be one of the few games out there that?s capable of keeping me busy way past the 8 hour mark. Showing no signs of defeat at 10 hours, I pressed on, determined to crush the evil empires I had fought so long... Read full review »

Pros great learning experience
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

Microsoft's Age of Empires has to be one of the greatest games ever. My sister recently let me borrow this game, and I haven't stopped playing it since! Age of Empires has good graphics, and good sound effects. It's easy to play, and is quite addictive. One of the things I really like about this... Read full review »

Pros Exciting, nice graphics, nice interface
Cons Pathetic AI, Little real technological development
Recommended it? Yes

Age of Empires considers iteself to be a cross between tech-tree turn-based games like Civilization and real-time strategy (RTS) games like Command and Conquer. It is much closer to the latter genre than the former. As with most games in this genre, the emphasis is on attaining the fastest possible... Read full review »

I have been playing the first version on several different computers for a few years now. In my opinion it is a better game in a lot of ways than Age of Empires 2.

Here is how you play:

Select multiplayer or single player.
Then select your... Read full review »

Pros new twist
Cons sound
Recommended it? No

This game is really a new twist to those other real time strategy games. Its like a combination of warcraft, with command and conquer. It sounds really good and in some ways it is but it needs some help. You harvest food, stone, wood, and gold. And its you evolve from the stone age to the bronze... Read full review »

I remember playing this game with my cousin when I was really too young to understand the mechanics of it.

Strategy for the ages, AI for the birds...

15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great graphics, great strategy
Cons AI sucks
Recommended it? Yes

Age of Empires is probably one of the most addicting games I have ever played. You start in the Tool Age of civilization, working your way up to the bronze age. To do this, you must struggle to harvest enough resources to keep advancing and building units and buildings and you must also fight off... Read full review »

Pros Mini history lesson after each scenario and great graphics.
Cons Takes patience to complete a scenario. Some children may get bored.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this a year or so ago. We played it tirelessly for the first few months, then it was put away and Diablo was the game that every one wanted to play.

We got it back out the other day, and guess what? Everyone wants to play it again. We're having to take turns again waiting for... Read full review »
