I enjoyed this game so much as a teen. The empire-building, the rolle-playing elements, exploring, crawling, finding items. This was just so much fun. Keep in mind the game is almost 20 years old, so don't expect fireworks. AoW 3 is also a good game for those who want a better graphics, but it doesn't have that slight touch of awesomnes that the first one had. PS. The animation of dying goblins always made me laught.
