    This game perfectly has all of the mechanics that AoE 2 has.
    The way the armys get ordered and the tactis are amazing.
    You dont need to
    This game perfectly has all of the mechanics that AoE 2 has.
    The way the armys get ordered and the tactis are amazing.
    You dont need to destroy each single building to win a match, you capture cities until you raid the main city and win the game.
    The villagers has a perfect idle managment system which the almost never get doing nothing so you can focus mostly in the strategies.
    Also there is inflation, as your economy grows your army is gonna be expensive.
    Excellent and super fun game.

    Very fun game. Games can last up to hours but it starts to get a bit stale near the end. The different classes and upgrade system is wellVery fun game. Games can last up to hours but it starts to get a bit stale near the end. The different classes and upgrade system is well implemented and the different Nations with all their own unique traits is a clever addition too. Expand

    Enjoyable real-time strategy game. I never played this before when it first came out, so it was really enjoyable!

IDK if there are newer, better RTS games with a similar premise, (and I admit that their probably are) but if you're looking for something that's sure to run on a low performance PC and you don't like new things, than this could very well be the game for you.

When a tutorial is that stupid, I don't expect much from the game itself. Expand
