The remaster includes new 4K graphics, new improved visuals for troops and buildings, the ability to zoom in and out, and a new spectator mode.

Added four new campaigns for the new civilizations: Ivaylo, Kotyan Khan, Tamerlane, and Pachacuti, which is about the Inca civilization and replaces El Dorado from the HD Edition Lithuanians do not appear as playable civilizations in any campaign; however, they represent the Poles in the Ivaylo campaign. Bert Beeckman left and Adam Isgreen right at E3 The original AI had to cheat to be competitive, while the new AI is advanced enough not to require cheating.

When the old and new AIs faced each other in a test, the new one easily defeated the old one. Supposedly the search for unit paths has also been improved. Players can change the tasks of the villagers in the queue. So a boring stone wall becomes decorated with carvings, and primitive huts turn into full-fledged houses..

The player can choose from several different nations, each of which has its own unique units the French have ax throwers, and the British have special archers , as well as some gameplay changes, such as additional protection from buildings or accelerated resource extraction. All nations are balanced and each has both disadvantages and advantages. In addition, all unit lines are voiced in the language of the nation you are playing for.. The game supports both a normal battle mode, where you choose opponents, their number and strength, and a multiplayer mode.

And for fans of historical battles, there is a campaign mode in which you can follow the bright battles of great generals such as Jeanne d'Arc, Attila, Genghis Khan, Richard the Lionheart, William Wallace and so on.. Features of the game: Reissue of a classic game. Historical campaigns with stylized visuals revealing specific events. Wide variety of different nations with unique units and bonuses.

The ability to turn a squalid settlement into a thriving empire. There is an advanced mode and a simple map mode. If you do not have enough information use the advanced mode, if it is too complicated go to the basic display.

The screenshots just do not do this game justice. To get the full experience you need to see the graphics and animation in action. The depth and detail is great and the scale of the buildings to the people is one of the biggest improvements over the original.

There is a very nice addition to finding those lost workers on the map. If a villager gets behind a building or a natural obstruction like a tree you will see an outline glowing through the building or through the forest. The animation is crisp and quite fluid, a real treat for so much going on at the same time. The audio is up to the high standards of Age of Empires. There are unique sounds that alert you when there is something that needs your attention.

I turn off the background music in most games, but I actually like the music in Age of Kings -- it stays in the background where it should be. Too many games now center the game on the music in an attempt to make up for the lack of content.

Do not play this game without sound support; you will not be able to keep up effectively without the warnings and alert sounds. More games should learn from Age of Kings on the proper use of sound that contributes to gameplay and stop using it as filler.

I am impressed with how well this game runs on the minimum system. You will need a mouse, I did play on my old MHz PC for testing purposes and it performed quite well. A large game with large population limit would be too much for the minimum PC, but with computer prices as they are today, I do not see this as an issue. There are a lot of inferior games that require a lot more PC to play. The documentation is up to the usual high standards Age players have come to expect.

The manual is very nice and quite complete. The quick reference card is wonderful and is also available online, so now if you do not have a card handy, you can look it up in the online help.

I find the printed card and book refreshing to see provided and I would gladly pay a little extra to have these sorts of items included in all the games I buy. Thanks for not skimping, guys. The readme.

The only reason I did not give this game out of , as great as it is, is that it is a sequel. It is not a totally new idea with groundbreaking creativity and originality. Even if another game happens to get a higher score this year, Age of Kings will still get my vote because it has staying power and I cannot say that for too many games these days.

Sure, some games are fun when they first come out, but I find myself losing interest fast with most of them. Age of Kings, Age of Empires, and the Rise of Rome Expansion Pack are all timeless and they will stay through the 'Ages' installed on my computer for many years. I am already looking forward to an expansion pack for Age of Kings. It will be hard, however, to find things that they left out and can improve or expand upon, but I hope they do.

It is rare to find a sequel that is better than the original game it is based upon, especially when the original game was so good. My hat is off to Ensemble Studios and Microsoft for a job well done.

The Age Of Empires series is becoming something of a trusty old dog. You've enjoyed its company for a few years now and you've grown comfortable with it.
