Sneak peek: Age of Mythology Age of Mythology transports players to a time when heroes battled with monsters of legend and gods intervened in the affairs of mortal men. You create armies, develop civilisations through the ages and manage economics through resource gathering and trade. The mythological excitement begins when you call upon the gods to act on your behalf, or reinforce your armies with more than 25 mythological creatures. Age of Mythology features beautiful environments, buildings, units and special effects rendered in full 3D using Ensemble's revolutionary game engine. Hundreds of unit animations bring the game world to life, as you see units fighting, using a variety of attack and defence manoeuvres. In addition to beautiful cascading waves and life-like terrain, the special effects in Age of Mythology include water spouts, infernos, lava, tornadoes, earthquakes and lightening with astonishing levels of detail. Age of Mythology also offers diverse game modes and a variety of settings for novice and experienced real time strategy fans alike. In-game cinematic scenes create a seamless, story-based and character-driven campaign. In addition, Age of Mythology is easy to learn and use with an intuitive, streamlined interface. The game offers more than 15 map types, 13 game variants and five starting conditions in its multiplayer lineup. Nine highly differentiated civilisations and the inclusion of a random map generator will keep you coming back to play. Age of Mythology preserves many familiar elements from the Age
of Empires games including wonders, technology trees, ages and civilisation
bonuses.
