    Thanks OP :) Steam library growing every week on here.

    • g12345567 on 12/07/2019 - 09:38

      Same. My steam library is growing all the time. although it probably contains alot of terrible games I've gotten free in the past that i'll never play.

        I have 1600. Some shite. If I retired right now I still wouldn't be able to finish them

      Interestingly, the medium number of game sonw on Steam accounts is 1 for newer accouts, and 2 for older. Maybe they are burner accounts for cheating at CSGO, PUBG, etc.

    I was all excited until i realized it was in my library already, unplayed of course!

    • Zazer on 12/07/2019 - 10:11

      same! :(

  • warclone on 12/07/2019 - 12:21

    Another one for the library of possibly unplayed games

  • axlfan on 12/07/2019 - 12:23

    Nice game and thanks OP! I wish I could find time to play this one as well. :(

  • lostn on 12/07/2019 - 13:45

    This is a good game. I paid $20 USD for it and more for all the DLCs.

    It's a shame none of you will play it and you're just claiming it because you can.

    I'm a fantasy 4X connoisseur and Age of Wonders series is still my favorite, although AOW3 is not my favorite in the series (that would be Shadow Magic).

  • love2buy on 12/07/2019 - 14:23

    What age group is this game for?

    • lostn on 12/07/2019 - 15:15
      +1

      all ages

      But young kids aren't going to be into this kind of games. I'd say a lot of adults aren't going to be either. It's a slow paced game. Battles are turn based. A map will take hours.

        It's a slow paced game. Battles are turn based. A map will take hours.

        Can you imagine playing the first mission/quest campaign and takes more than a day to finish….? And then find out that there's like 50 more of these campaign missions/quests….

        • lostn on 13/07/2019 - 18:11

          Pretty much yeah.

          But if you have a preference for value for money, you're well served.

    any relation to AOE?

    • daydream on 12/07/2019 - 22:27

      No

    • UFO on 13/07/2019 - 07:42
      -1

      Yes- well that's what AOW originally hoped for when people were shopping in store and looking at the box.

      Similar looking game cashing in on the "Age of Empires" name.

      AOE released 1997. Real time strategy. Publisher: Microsoft, huge success and millions of copies sold.
      AOW released 1999. Turn based strategy, but looks very similar to AOE on screenshots and cashed in on AOE juggernaut. A fraction in comparable sales. Publisher: I can't remember.

      The more recent releases are different and AOW now has a very strong following and IS a different game to AOE (I enjoy both).
      But its initial sales was I reckon in part to riding the coat tails of AOE.

      • lostn on 13/07/2019 - 18:19

        The games cannot be any more different. They don't look alike, and they don't play alike.

        Totally different genre.

        If you think the screenshots look alike, every car game looks alike, GTA looks like a driving game, any game with shooting in it is cashing in on some other game's success. Even Civilization looks "very similar" to AoE.

        This argument is bunk. That they put "Age of" in their title so therefore they were riding the coattails of AoE. Anyone buying AoW thinking it's going to be an AOE clone is going to be extremely disappointed. And you know what? Those people didn't buy the game. The game's sales came from fans of the 4X genre who are a niche audience and knew what they were getting.

        A TBS is never going to sell as good as an RTS. The audience for it is smaller. That you are comparing sales of games in totally different genres is a very pointless thing to do. It would be like comparing AoE's sales to League of Legends player base because if you look at their screenshots, it's very similar, except League has more than 100 million players and generates more revenue in a month than the entire AOE series lifetime.

        The more recent releases are different and AOW now has a very strong following and IS a different game to AOE (I enjoy both).

        They have always been different, not only recently, but since the first game. When a game takes turns and combat goes into a different screen, and you can't tell the difference between that and a real time strategy game, you must be the kind that looks at a screenshot of GTA and think it's a racing game because it looks like Forza.

        Are you seriously telling me the first AoW is an AoE clone? That it's the same game and the series only diverged recently?

  • Proudydude on 12/07/2019 - 19:28

    Nice. awesome game I have read a lot of reviews and I am willing to try this for free. I hope I will like it and I will buy full version after the trial expires

      This is not a trial. This is the full game you get to keep for free.

  • frewer on 13/07/2019 - 12:31
