It's the all round favourite seeing man in the past kill each other, but hey it's highly addictive after the first go.

When ii first purchased this game i didn't reckon much to it, but after a while it grew on me, plus it's educational which is always a good excuse to sit on the computer for hours on end. The graphics for this game aren't great but are bearable, plus some of the annoying sound effects let this game down. The main advantage is that when you are stressed or angry you can count on this game to help you wind down, the humour of killing every one elses troops, Some of the storylines aren't to clever, but on a whole it is good value for money. When on the game, you can chose from a whole range of civilisations from the greeks to the mighty roman empire. The aim of the game is to build an empire either large enough or strong enough to defeat your enemies to becoming the ruling civilisation. The game can also be played online against other players from around the world. The expansion upgrades cause the original to improven to an satisfactory standard. This game is for mainly the people who like to be educated about the past and still be entertained.
