Age of Empires: Mythologies 2008

Is it still worth playing?

A turn based strategy game for the Nintendo DS based on Age of Mythology and the sequel to Age of Empires: The Age of Kings. Unlike the PC game, it is not in real time: in the manner of Advance Wars, each player takes a turn in which units make single actions, such as moving, attacking, capturing or building. When two units attack each other, a short animation of the fight plays on the top screen. You collect food, gold and favor to build structures and train units, and you advance through Ages, starting with the Archaic Age. There are three civilizations, Greek, Egyptian and Norse, each with its own units, buildings and powers, and three major gods to choose from before each game, such as Zeus, Ra or Odin. Minor gods are chosen each time you advance an Age, granting technologies, myth units and god powers. Choosing a god before each game makes each army different.
