| Not bad, but not the same as the PC version |
Being a massive, huge fan of the PC version I was a little disappointed with the Nintendo DS version. Possibly I was expecting too much from a hand held game, but the game play doesn't really bare much resemblance to the PC game. Having said that, the graphics are good and the game play is enjoyable, just don't expect too much. |

| Gets boring after awhile |
In comparison to a game like Fire Emblem which is fun to the last mission and makes you want to start the whole thing over when you are done, this game gets a little boring about half way through. It is a fun game, but after awhile it gets a little repetitive. |

| Perfect turn-based strategy game for DS |
This game was well-done, and a great value for the price. If you like strategy games, esp. turn-based, this is as good any decent PC t-b strat game for the PC from the 90's. I actually never played AoE for PC, but think I will go ahead and pick up a bargain bin one and give it a whirl. This game actually reminded me a little bit of early HOMM titles (DS versions, please!), but with more freedom to move around.
The story line and scenarios were very good, as were the factions. After the nice length campaign there were plenty of additional maps to play, and the game tweaks available made it work at the level you want to rather than feeling like you're fighting it. Very enjoyable game, and due to the price a 5/5 (vs. a 4.5/5 if it had been $25 or more). |

| Not 2 Shabby... |
Well, I have been an Age of Empire player for years now. But since my kids have autism, I had to down grade to a portable system, and the DS has AOE. I have enjoyed the game definately! There have been some glitches! Well I have learned to save, especially while fighting against 3 AI. I tend to think it is the memory capabilities of the DS, or should I say uncapabilities? Anywho....so if you like these types of games, remember to save, save, save some more, and did I mention DO NOT FORGET TO SAVE AFTER EVERY BATTLE? For all of you who do not understand "after every battle", I mean after your turn is over....there was also an error message about taking out my game card and reinserting it. So, go ahead and do it. If you are patient and can save, it is not that big of a deal. |
