Age of empires is an excellent game with few if any flaws. The game play is very addictive and the depth of the game is awesome with so many civilisations to be and also many different units to buil, train and use in an all out war against your enemy. There are different simulations you can play, like regicide. In this you must kill the other teams king who is in the enemies town centre or their castle. It is loads of fun especially when you put the maximum amount of units up to 200. The idea of the game is to use settlers to search for meat, wood, gold and stone. Meat is used to make units. Wood is used to make buildings and some units. Gold is used to make some units and buildings and stone is used to make walls and buildings. After doing this you must then build up your army and defences so that you can deal with enemy attacks and also attack the enemy. There are some cheats which can be used.
