-Game Nation
Empires: Dawn of the Modern World delivers great strategic gaming that's based on great historical civilizations.
-daytrum Review
Games can be truly epic. Resources are plentiful, maps are huge, and battles are insane.
-Armchair Review
Fans of Age of Empires will want this title. Three story-based modes, another 5 eras and 7 civilizations, random map generator, and both single and multiplayer game modes. Enough to keep you busy for hours and hours.
-Elited
Make no mistake, the single-player campaigns are great, but the multiplayer gives you and your friends more freedom to create the RTS atmosphere of your dreams.
-ActionTrip
The 3D engine delivers very beautiful images and when you zoom in, you really get the feeling of being right in the action.
-FragLand Review
The three campaigns are long enough that this really is almost like three games in one.
-GameRaider’s review
Create your own games with the robust scenario editor. You can actually construct complete campaign for play.
-Gamer’s Pulse
As each chapter of history unfolds, you find yourself dealing with new technologies and unlocking more complex examples of advanced warfare. In the final campaign, airplanes and armored vehicles roll into gameplay, as well as flamethrowers, rocket launchers, and atomic weapons.
-InTheMix
The campaigns feature engrossing storylines, like Richard the Lionheart's ascension to the throne. There are points in the campaigns where players will have to make difficult choices.
-Gigex
Empires: Dawn of the Modern World has done something that not many titles have done too recently, drawn me into a world and not let me to till the wee small hours.
-Gamer Archive
With a full time line of epochs, theres a lot to keep track of. All the civilizations have different bonuses and that can turn the tide of war. Russia has weak but cheap infantry in WW2, and gets 7 workers for free. Chinese get two free town-centers, and are very versatile in their economic needs.

Great nostalgia trip BUT BE WARNED
I love this old game. Played it so much as a kid. Got it off the shelf at big lots for $5 back in the early 2000s.Great level of detail for how old it is. You can zoom in so much. amazing story and voice acting, straight forward mechnaics you can just guess. I really like this RTS as a kid but.... I forgot HOW SLOW THIS GAME IS. there is no speed control either. I remember while playing lionhearts first mission, why i would chat online with people as I played this game. its brutally slow. Also the pathing of troops as you click them to move is god awful. Multiple times on the first mission alone i had units struggling to move or attack after I gave them an order. They just kind of paced back and forth or would go super far away then come back. Its just worse than I remember. Also I wish it would zoom out more. I like a birds eye view of things. This game is a bit too close for my RTS prefrence. Idk if it was design limitations of the day or if it was intentional since combat was the main focus of this game. Keeps you in on the action and focused. If it wasnt for that it would be 5 stars. I just dont see how people can give it 4 or even 5 stars with these issues. I get the game is old but still you are paying for it.

Worse than the original
Takes every problem the original had and runs with it, but also removes half the buildings, most of the units, custom civs, and all but 4 or 5 ages that are really not substantially different. Disappointing.
