Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not as good as the PC versions
I bought this in high hope it would be as good as the PC versions of the game. Of course it couldnt be the same because of the different format but i was disappointed that it didnt live up to my expectations. I found the graphics werent great and the gameplay didnt hold my interest. I dont think it translated over to DS as well as it could of which is a shame.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Damn Good
I can't begin (bothered), so read T.Dungate review, sums it up and is spot on.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for the money :D
I bought this game a while ago for around £15 and pound-for-pound it is one of the best portable games I have ever played! Gameplay is brilliant: the single player campaigns can be very challenging (especially the Saladin/Richard campaigns) and the multiplayer is extremely fun, although I would recommend playing against other players (via WiFi or Hotseat mode) rather than the CPU as tactically the computer has very limited strategies in skirmish maps. While this game is by no means better/equal than the massive PC title of the same name, it is a worthy portable companion to one of gaming's best RTS franchises.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The World Is Yours
This is the first installment on a handheld console for Age of Empires and my God it's brilliant! Why? U ask. Well it's so damn addictive! Although it isn't as good as Advance Wars (due to no map designer and edit mode as well as some other things), it is still fantastic to have even if you have Advance Wars. If you didn't already know Age of Empires is a stratigical turn based game in which you control an ancient army and try to dominate the land by conquering the other armies. To this you need to build up towns, buildings, mines for money, mills for food and of course your army which can contain many different types of units which are unique in their own way. It can be very difficult at first but after you get the idea and get into the game ... Read More:



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good game - bad software glitches
A great strategy game which will occupy you for weeks, however if the game has gone on for a while, it tends to freeze after you try and save it with a message, "cannot write/save to card". You can't get back to the game after this so your last playing session will be lost.
Because of this it only gets 3 stars when it should be higher.
