This is an absolutely fantastic game in many respects. It is far deeper than Advance Wars while still being accessible (and there’s a perfectly constructed tutorial with its own campaign to lead you through every aspect); you need to worry about building placement, research, two different resources, units with special abilities, heroes, and a multitude of different civilizations all with unique units and heroes. The units are perfectly balanced, each having strengths and weaknesses vs other units and buildings, and the heroes have their own special skills that can be used every turn; some boost the attack and movement of some units, some heal, some do direct damage, some reduce defense, some add gold to your treasury, some make units do more damage vs buildings, etc. There are a wide variety of maps to choose from, along with a large number of unlockable maps and units. The research is a very fun aspect; all the researches do very different things; some make a certain type of unit less expensive, some increase your sight, some increase damage or defense of a type of unit, and a variety of other neat little advantages you can research. It’s very open-ended, as there are a whole lot of research choices, and you can choose one each turn. After a certain number of completed researches, you can advance to another age (there are four total), making your units stronger and giving you a whole new realm of research to explore. It’s also cool how you can have up to 4 players per map, s.
Excellent results!
I enjoyed this game almost as much as the pc version, even though the graphics were not as good, because it was portable.I purchased my copy used. An earlier reviewer mentioned that there were known problems with a three letter character name, I had used a three letter name. It locked up a few times forcing me to restart it. Finally one day it locked up and wouldn’t restart at all. I tried several times over the next month and finally gave up. Fortunately I had finished the campaign.I have thought about buying another copy, thinking that maybe it was just the copy I had, but now I think I’ll not buy another copy, just wait for the next version.
If you like strategy games, then this is for you. I’m a huge fan of Advanced Wars and Civilization, and this title neatly slots somewhere in between. It is turn based, and as you progressed through the levels, it grows more complex and demands more attention to strategy. I’m still plowing through after 3 months of purchase, and it is a game that I return frequently. I would happily recommend it.
Arrived on time and as depicted.
My wife and I pkayed this when it first came out and we still play it. One of the BEST DS games. Lots of strategy amd so much fun to play on the go. Two thumbs up!
I have found that age of empires ds is not quite as bad as people make it out to be. I have logged 17 hours with this game and although it has frozen twice(both non-lethal to game) that creating a username four characters or longer does indeed help. All that aside it is a really great game with plenty of units and excellent battle animations (though a little repetitive). This game recieves 4 stars because of glitches, but it is an overall good game. Although I wouldn’t put this as number 1 on your must have list. It makes a good 2nd or 3rd!
Don’t listen to these other reviews griping about lockups. They don’t happen all that often, and to be safe, you can save before ending day so you don’t lose everything. The only problem with this game is that once you end day, you have to wait for everyone else to do whatever they want to do, and late in the game this could take a while. In all, this is a great game for the DS, and I highly reccomend it!
If you like to play risk, you’ll love to play this game. This is the perfect game to bring on a plane for a long trip.
Great game of this type of genre on this system.

I’m not sure if I got the only fully working copy of this game or not, but I have extensively played this game (100+ hours) and have only rarely had a lock-up – and these can be avoided if you save every few rounds when playing a large multi-player game. I’ve got no idea why some people are having such serious problems with the title.As for the game itself, it is a great adaptation of the PC game, you don’t have all of the features or whistles of the computer game, but what is here is wonderfully scaled to the DS platform. I never liked this game much on the PC, but the scale and interface work great with this iteration. The gameplay seems simple, but you really have to master the use of terrain and unit type to complete the harder campaigns.Well worth the price for anyone who likes wargames/strategy.

Timely shipping, great quality. Thanks!!

This game was made 8 years ago and it’s still better than most current gen games. Strategy, RTS or tactical/turn based is a genre that is neglected. Don’t be fooled by the low score. This game has a bug that can run the cartridge if you save and quit. So, i just don’t use that feature. The gameplay is sort of like a cross between advance wars and the other age games. There are some very serious decisions to make about what upgrades to make, where to position building construction and what units to produce. My only problem is that the computer takes very long to take its turn.

At first I didnt know what to expect but as soon as opened the box and played the tutorial things started to make sense.It took me a few times to fully understand the pace and features of the game but once you get it you can get hooked and not stop for hours. The game may seem harder at the beggining but as you evolve in the knowledge of different civilizations and their paces the game comes together ver nicely.Don get frustrated, try different strategies, be agrressive, explore, be conservative. There are misions and campaigns that will demand different a different strategy every time.A must have for strategy enthuasiats.

The most addictive DS game evah! And I mean it, as a comic in all seriousness

This is an excellent game that teach us about culture, strategy and entertainment.Best value for money!!!

Warning: The game is addictive.It is a very good game for a portable console. It might seem complicated when you just start playing, but as you play along it becomes easy to understand how to control an entire empire. Like any other strategy game as your empire progresses also your options grow and you have the power to construct bigger and more powerful armies and buildings.I like playing this game during flights as it passes time really fast and before you know it you arrive at your destination (and you can also eat your flight peanuts while playing your game, great fun!).Review from a 30 year old.With “Age of Empires: The Age of Kings” the world is mine…

This is one of 3 games I received with my DS for Christmas, and I was hooked right out of the gate. I am a veteran of PC-based RTS games, including the original Age of Empires all the way up to AoE3, as well as other publishers like Warcraft, Starcraft, C&C, etc. The one thing I really liked about this version is the change to turn-based rather than real-time. Usually in the real-time versions everything is a race, but here you have the opportunity to plan out some things and play the game a little slower-paced, which is good since I usually play my DS when my kids are around/awake and often have to sit the game down to attend to them.There are several small things about the game that I didn’t catch offhand, that started to be a frustration, like why their archers can hit my archers, but mine can’t hit theirs…. (turns out terrain plays a factor in weapon range) but once I figured it out it really opened up the game for me. Just since Christmas I’ve probably played 40+ hours so far.The game even has little historical facts (accessible from the main game menu) that tells you about various battles throughout history, how some ancient weapons of war were used, etc. The ability to save your game whenever you like (during your turn) is also a nice feature.I recommend this title to anyone who likes RTS (Real Time Strategy) games, as well as the Civilization/Sim City genre.

This game was everything that I had hoped for. I was worried about the “save game” problems that other reviewers had complained about. But the game includes instruction on how to get around that particular problem.
