Author's Review
I have always wondered how it would have been living among the ancient civilizations. Their buildings, the soldiers, and their costumes. We have been watching movies about them and watching their animations on the TV but the experience isn't the same. But after playing age of empires, the age of kings, I was totally amazed!
You get to have villagers, build buildings, make your army and eliminate your enemy. Microsoft as tried to make the experience as realistic as possible. You have to collect resources and then use them to develop your civilization. To make it more close to reality, you have to conduct researches to enhance your army. There are buildings like university and black smith whose sole purpose is research.
The game has many campaigns that take you through some chapters of the history like Shanghais Khan and John of Arc. After every scenario, there is a description of what happened next, derived from actual events. This way, you get to know more of history as well as develop more and more interest as you advance through the scenarios.
Even though much attention has been paid to the game's details but there are still some glitches. Like when the villagers are building, you actually done get to see anything being built. But still, the overall experience of the game is very good.
