There's an enjoyable card system too, which lets you set up a deck between battles, then call in supplies from your Home City on a timer.Īll this makes for a fast-flowing game that condenses centuries worth of military and technological progress into battles that last between 10 minutes and an hour.
You now only have three resources to worry about rather than the four of previous games, there's a big clear button that automatically sends you to the next idle villager, and you no longer need special buildings to store resources, cutting down on menial micromanagement. Whatever your preference, the options are there, and you can resize the initially oversized UI too.įurther smoothing things out are various mechanical tweaks. For most, though, the 'Definitive' UI is probably the way to go, making those precious resource counters displayed large and clear at the top of your screen. Nostalgics can opt for a cleaner version of the original UI minus the excess of wooden veneer that boxed in the action in the 2005 version (I, for one, would like to have had the original UI in all its screen-hogging glory).
It may be demanding and intense, but Age of Empires 3 is also deceptively simple.
