Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings

1st when I saw my friend playing this game I thought was does he find interesting in this game. I thought it was boring and dull. Then a year later when I got my 1st PC my friend let my younger brother borrow it. And I seen my younger brother play this game. Then i got hooked on this game and this game is heavy proper fun to play I'll give it 10/10.

this game is definitely worth getting but not any more because part 3 is out.

This is sort of one of those god games. Your civilisation goes to war with another civilisation. Plus you have civilians making weapons. defense barriers, researching how to make new weapons, advancing to the future and for those things you need to collect a lot of gold, stone, wood. This is one of the best strategy games ever made

... As long as you don't cheat

I got a demo version of AGE OF EMPIRES: THE AGE OF KINGS with a computer magazine and was so impressed with this that I purchased the full game . I certainly recommend this game for strategy fans in general and real time strategy addicts in particular

As with so many of these games you start of with villagers chopping down trees , collecting gold and tilling the fields in order to build up the economy , technology and military might but you've also got the choice of choosing different races , terrain , landscapes etc which unlike several other strategy games are in fact different . Not only that you can also choose several missions like embarking on a crusade against the mighty Saladin or unifying the Germanic lands .

I have to confess that not long after starting the game I surfed the net for cheats which spoiled much of the challenge . I awarded myself unlimited amounts of food , stone , gold and wood . I also managed to find a cheat which meant I could arm myself with cars that fired machine guns which while being fun in an anachronistic way ( The game is set round about the 12th century and never progresses beyond this time frame ) of machine gunning massive amounts of enemy means the game instantly stops being much of a challenge . Having said that I still sat in front of my computer for countless days wreaking carnage on my enemies knowing that there would be no chance of me losing a game which speaks well of its playability

I've been playing this game since age 9, and it still finds ways to surprise and challenge me.

"Rome has fallen, and land is up for grabs." Beginning with a ramshackle town center and a few peasants, you rebuild a civilization in the medieval world. From collecting resources to annihilating enemy armies, you'll always have something to do.

Each civilization has their own unique unit and abilities. For example, the Mongolians have great cavalry archers and horsemen, but are not so hot on collecting food. In comparison, the Goths collect hunted meat very quickly, but their cavalry is not much.

No matter what your playing style, you'll have a civilization to play as. I heartily recommend this modern classic game to any player.

Ive played this game since it was released, I loved the details and in a way, it was educative. The campaigns were amazing

Age of Empires II it's a construct empire game,about combat and conquest,you will beginning in a loyal position in the height mild age" These are the principal guidelines of the game.
