Age of Empires II: Gold Edition

Background

In this game, you assume the role of leader of a civilization. You must help keep your civilization strong and thriving through the Dark and Middle Ages, following the collapse of the Roman Empire. It's up to you to plot the economic, military, social and political outcome of your civilization.

Gameplay

You take control of a civilisation during missions. Each of them has different features: some can access a particular technology the others can't. You control civilians that will build, hunt, fish, cut wood, bring gold/stone, etc.. You can also order to buildings to produce a specific unity. Also, you will have to build an army for defending and conquering your enemy. You can also make trade with your allies without forgetting that you can also explore the seas with boats. Your goal is to win but for doing it, you will have to advance in age. You have four ages and each one bring new buildings, new technologies (you'll have to develop them for improving your civilisation) and new units.
