Age of Mythology
Age of Mythology transports players to a time when heroes did battle with
monsters of legend and the gods intervened in the affairs of mortal men. Players
wage war using human armies and diplomacy, progress through development ages,
enhance military and economic performance with improvements, and manage
economics through resource gathering and trade. Mythology enters the mix when
players call upon the gods to act on their behalf or reinforce their armies with
more than 35 mythological creatures. Ensemble Studios' new 3-D engine adds a
deep richness of graphical detail and creates a unique new title based on the
ancient cultural history of the Greek, Norse, and Egyptian mythologies, which
are divided into nine detailed civilizations.
Features:
- Simply stated, the game is gorgeous – Age
of Mythology features beautiful environments, buildings, units and
special effects rendered in full 3-D using Ensemble's
revolutionary new engine.
- A compelling and immersive world –
Players can now heed the wishes of the gods and petition them for
favors throughout gameplay. Persuade Isis to strike the center of
an enemy's city with a meteor, enlist Thor to trap opponents in a
snow squall or have Ra unleash a devastating tornado upon an
opponent's village.
- Powerful single-player capability - Epic
single-player campaign takes players through all three mythologies
over the course of 35 scenarios seamlessly integrated with in-game
cinematics.
- A game for everyone – Age of Mythology's
diverse game modes offer a variety of settings and options for
novice and experienced real time strategy fans alike.
- Preserving the fun of "Age" while adding
new gameplay – Age of Mythology preserves many familiar elements
from the Age of Empires games, including wonders, technology
trees, ages, and civilization bonuses.
- Age of Mythology features nine highly
differentiated civilizations from three distinct cultures
(Egyptian, Greek, and Norse).
- Age of Mythology's dynamic lighting creates dramatically different-looking
environments.
Age of Mythology: The Titans Expansion
Age of Mythology: The Titans adds a fourth mythology, the Atlanteans, to the
existing Greek, Egyptian and Norse mythologies in Age of Mythology. A new
single-player campaign will add yet another chapter to the expansive panoply of
ancient folklore along with the addition of new scenarios. Atlantean players
will be able to call upon the might of the Titan gods (such as Atlas and Cronus)
multiple times throughout the game, and may also upgrade human units to heroes.
The expansion pack will introduce 12 new god powers, 15 new human units and 12
formidable myth units to the game.
Features:
- Epic Campaigns. Age of Mythology: Gold Edition features two
single-player campaigns: a 35-scenario campaign that allows
players to take part in an epic mythological tale, inspired by a
number of popular myths, and the Age of Mythology: The Titans
single-player campaign.
- Twelve Legendary Civilizations. Players guide their
people to greatness by commanding all aspects of their empire: gathering
resources, raising massive armies and waging war with enemies, establishing
profitable trade routes, building new settlements, improving production or
military might, as they advance through four distinct ages and experience
the unique cultures of Norse, Greek, Egyptian and Atlantean civilizations.
- Incredible God Powers. Age of Mythology: Gold Edition
brings the ancient world to life in more detail than ever before with
exciting gameplay elements and characters. It will unveil the incredible
powers of the gods – these include forest fires, frosts, meteors,

of ways.
