Ancient Empires
Lead a rising civilization through three Ages of expansion, discovery and conflict in this action-programming and area-control game. Players secretly program actions to grow their population, move armies, establish settlements, produce resources and attack rivals across a modular map. Tribes develop into civilizations with unique abilities, while technologies, events and Wonders shape each empire’s strategy. Units exert influence through their presence and special abilities, making timing and positioning central to controlling valuable regions.
