Video Game Reviews of Age of Empires: The Rise of Rome
Customer Review: Great strategy expansion to an already great game!
Summary: 4 Stars
I seriousely think that out of all the age of empires games in the series, (not including age of mythology)the first one and its expansion, Rise of Rome are the best. The reason being is that it has the biggest number of civilizations that you can choose from, its a lot cheaper (in terms of how much it costs) then the other AOE games, and also, you can create however many units you want (in the expansion) whereas in age of kings, you are limited to the number of units that you create.
Graphics: The graphics in Rise Of Rome are extremely simplistic, just as most strategy games are now a days. They are not bad, but definetely not graphics that you would want to brag about to a friend/anyone.
Gameplay: Typical strategy game is what is found in AOE Rise of Rome. Your objective is to basically eliminate your opponent or be the first person to build a wonder, which costs a lot of resources. It requires the mouse a lot, and a lot of clicking so your hand can get tired after a while, but still, that is no reason for you not to get this game.
Audio: There isn't really much audio in this game besides the music. The music is actually pretty good, compared to most games now a days.
Online: The online aspect of Rise of Rome is amazing. Hardly any lag, and you will be up and running a game in a matter of minutes. You usually use www.zone.com in order to play online with other people.
In conclusion, i highly recommend this expansion pack to all Age of Empires fans out there!
