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.

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.

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!
