When the teacher asked him how he knew that, he said that his dad had taken him to the King Tut Exhibit a year earlier and that he had this cool new game. The asked a question about the Egyptians in his school last spring (2007) and he whi pped off the answer in nothing flat. One big added benefit of this game is that my 10-year-old son is already picking up on how these various cultures operate. Each culture has their own little nuances, tricks and tactics, but you can pick those up as you go along. But start with the Greeks, worship Zeus and get your feet wet there. If I have a grip its that early on, you can get beat very badly and it can be a little discouraging. The graphics are outstanding and watching the battle scenes unfold are captivating. You build the society, you create the armies and you choose the gods to be worshiped in this detailed game. Age of Mythology (Gold Edition) is an excellent strategy-based game. I gave this game a good, but it borders on excellent. All Atlantean human units can be converted to heroes, for a price, which can be invaluable in beating back attacks from mythological units.Ĭonquer the realms of history and mythology The Atlantean civilization offers some gameplay twists players are able to use god powers multiple times, as opposed to the one-time powers of the Greeks, Norse, and Egyptians. With Age of Mythology: The Titans, a fourth culture - the Atlanteans - becomes available, and the original three cultures are modified with new god powers, human units, and mythological units. Sturdy and resilient, the Egyptians defend themselves well and are difficult to overcome. The Norse are aggressive, driven by conquest and expansion. The Greeks offer a balance of good offensive and defensive capabilities.

Players choose to lead the Egyptians, the Greeks, or the Norse, each quite different in terms of available units, special powers, and methods of resource collection. Three of the world's most celebrated ancient mythologies come alive for real-time warfare in Age of Mythology.
