Video Game Reviews of Age of Mythology
Customer Review: To battle beside lesser gods...
Summary: 4 Stars
I was hesitant to buy this game because I thought that it would be too much like the AGE OF EMPIRES games (which I owned and liked.) I found that this game differed enough to be worth the extra time and money. All the hero and mythology units really do add an entirely different feel to the play. Plus, the the story line and cut scenes for the 36 campaign scenerios was very well done. You actually begin to identify with the various characters. There are also enough minor differences in units and technology between this game and AOE to require a bit of learning- this isn't a straight clone. All-in-all I enjoyed the couple of weeks that it took me at night to fight my way through to the end. The single player custom scenarios are also quite entertaining. Actually I haven't enjoyed a game this much in years.
One small comment, I do not know where they get "nine civilizations" here. You have the Greeks, the Egyptians, and the Norse and their respective pantheons- even the Atlantians are clearly Greek.
