    Awesome game for it's time, combat and managing units may be tricky but with some practice it grows on You.

    Campaign was quite challenging but the memories the game left are priceless. Basic RTS + Town micro management. For year 1998 It was quite revolutionary, building wheat farms and mills to produce bread in the bakery, ... Read Full Review

    Best Game Ever.

    IT is a classic to be remembered. It realistic in a cool way. It is also something that older people can enjoy because it's not so fast. The game is a future classic. Don't just look at the graphics, look at the quality,... Read Full Review

    It's a fun game to manage, but difficult to control your army.

    I enjoyed trying to figure out how to get a thriving community going. It's very involving. The hardest thing is the control of your army, they have minds of their own. Plus you have to feed them and anytime someone walks... Read Full Review
