Really good RTS game, set the stage for many others to come, like Age of Empires II, which is one of my favorites.
Played this game for hours on my grandfather's computer as a kid. I still remember all the cheats.
lo siento tio pero no me gustan estos juegos :(
The beginning of the (two game long) legend.

This will date me a bit but I got my first PC in high school and this game was bundled up with it.
Full disclosure: I'm not sure if this is a fair score to give it because I've hardly played any other RTS games due to being utterly hopeless at them. Nevertheless, I know I enjoyed my time playing the game; the campaign mode was great, featuring interesting maps and varied objectives, and the core gameplay was quite easy to get into even for an RTS novice like myself. Some minus points would be the lack of anything really distinctive that sets the civilizations apart from each other, and some instances of 'cheating' AI (enemy archers are able to shoot at you while walking away from you, something that a human player doesn't seem to be able to do!)

All Hail to the rts KING
I played this game only as a child for 3 years straight. The random skirmish mode just had so much gameplay in it.
wololooooo
Lost the CD :(
This game literally changed my life and for that I'll always love it, despite knowing its sequel is more famous and a better game.

Meu segundo RTS, e um dos jogos q mais joguei qnd mlk.
The first Age of Empires holds up better than people give it credit for... it's just overshadowed by its sequel.
