Reviews from

in the past


My first RTS. Actually got this game out of a cereal packet... those were the days.

WOLOLOOO, el mejor juego de estrategia para mi, me encantaba este juego, mis dieces, recomendado.

It may be the bias of a 'game played every day of my childhood', but this is one of the best strategy games I have ever played!
Amazing RTS game, amazing AOE entry.

Fantastic game for its time. Though not my literal first game, I consider it to be. It was the first game I was really into, rather than just filling time at grandma's.

I got this game in a packet of Nutrigrain in 2002! Unfortunately, I could never figure this one out. It's not necessarily a bad game, just one I could never vibe with. As a result, I think it would be disingenuous for me to give it a positive review.


Playing this game with friends was just amazing for weekends.

During my Bionicle script writer era I'd, on the sides, do scrip writing on this game. I love it for that

Strong 8

Age of Empires (1997): Tiene problemas de balanceo, los combates no pasan de simples escaramuzas y los menús de tecnología son poco intuitivos, pero sigue siendo un juegazo que sentó las bases de la obra maestra que vendría después. La estrategia le debe mucho a este juego (8,40)

Good start to the franchise, but as soon as AoE2 dropped it immediately became irrelevant.

Eu nao entendia nada mas era daora

Me lo grabó pirata un compañero de colegio, que le llamaba "agin conpains", o algo así.

Really good RTS game, set the stage for many others to come, like Age of Empires II, which is one of my favorites.

Meu eu criança achava que esse jogo era um city builder.

9/10. One of my first PC games, easily the best thing I ever got from a cereal box.

Never got good at the game and the genre is not for me, but I liked progressing my civilisation, and even playing around in custom mode, using the game almost as a city builder. Sometimes I’d stay Stone Age and have an expansive army of clubmen and axemen, trying to take on armoured phalanxes and siege weapons. And of course the cheats were classics.

i love this game only has men but you can still create new borns from the gay factory

De retomarlo, lo haría en la Definitive Edition.

Excellent game mechanics for the era it was released. Plus the cheats were always fun.
Campaign was a little boring.

One of the first Strategy Games I played still like it today.

Technically, I invented MOBAs when I played this game as a kid for I marked one of the villagers as being the unaging mortal witness to all the events in history and so every game in the campaign was kind of about conquering or whatever, but also mostly about protecting that one guy because he had to see the history but he couldn't like be in the fight because that's too risky and stuff. So, you're welcome, icefrog.

Sinceramente, esperava bem mais. Queria um jogo que eu me sentisse livre pra evoluir até o talo, enquanto também presenciava a história acontecendo no meu reino. Só que essas duas coisas não foram possíveis ao mesmo tempo.

O jogo tem as campanhas, mas sempre que eu cumpria as tarefas que ele me passava, simplesmente, toda a minha vila era jogada no lixo. Ai eu passava pra outra fase que tinha outros objetivos, com outra parte da história e sem a vila que tinha criado.

Até tem o modo personalizado que me deixou evoluir da forma como eu queria, mas isso só até virem os inimigos, que me trucidaram, destruíram tudo e ainda comeram as nossas mulheres. Isso aconteceu na dificuldade normal, então eu abaixei pra "moderado" e mais uma vez nossos corpos acordaram com formigas.

O inimigos evoluem com uma velocidade incrível, quando você começa a construir seu cafofo, eles já aparecem com ak47 e cavalos blindados.

Já o multiplayer, se for com os amigos pode ser legal.


Played this as a kid. Beautiful music and fun to build up your civilization. The sound of an enemy priest will strike the fear of god in you, literally. My dad also used to enjoy the game as a history buff. There were a few cheat codes that would give you a missile launching sports car and things like that - fun times.

Clasicazo de estrategia super divertido.

My great-grandmother got me Age of Empires: Gold Edition for PC as a gift when I was about five or six. What a legendary, based, god-tier gift for a grandma to buy.

I was always too scared to play the actual campaigns and just stuck to the foraging ones. My little buff and tanned, blue-pants builder men would always get steam-rolled by some red iron age guy on a horse whenever I tried to get out of my comfort zone. Nothing spamming the words "Big Daddy", "Photon Man", or "E=MC2 Trooper" into the chat couldn't solve though.

The best part of this game was the Scenario Builder. Me and my friend enjoyed just filling the map with an obscene amount of units and making our own sound effects as the two digital armies marched in to their meat-grinder.

WOLOLOOOOOO

I played this game only as a child for 3 years straight. The random skirmish mode just had so much gameplay in it.
