Community Insight:
It goes Historically Accurate and try To do it as Best as you can if you do Spectar mode.
How do we play it its fun but how do we play it.
Really good its kinda like the demo for the full game. We just wish it had more countries.
Idc if it crashes its a w game still.
By now you guys have seen the other reviews but we had to make one to.
Keep the good work going. If you didnt know Im a meteorologist lots of stuff about the weather and Im obsessed with tornadoes you can search up dead man walking tornado, and youll find some crazy images. You can find the Jarrell tornado in yall find it its crazy we mean tornadoes bring lots of severe stuff but theyre still important for storm chasers.
There was a glitch that canceled a game we were gunna win.
Theres one small thing about this game it doesnt have great maps we like looking at maps if we looked at this first we would be really bad at maps but still really great game.
In our opinion, when we conquer the whole world in the lite version of the game, we should be given a code. To download the original version free of charge, let us send you the code given to us via e-mail and we can download the game for free. With this method, both your games get a lot of downloads and we can download a game for free, please. Please read this and apply it. The game is $2, but this is $48 in Turkey, please do it for free.
Good game, the only problem we have is when another country offers peace they will almost always deny the offer they sent? Other than that its a good game. For those who are confused on how to take Provences, when you come to the surrender screen you will have a number of stars each Provence will also have a number of stars if you have enough stars you can tap on that Provence and it will be highlighted, once the other country agrees that provence(s) will be a part of your country.
It is a vey good game but if just the map full of empires it will be better.
We really like the game its cool like watching history and destroying enemy but, pls put more country like russia uk and you miss about the ottoman empire pls put more country like poland thats all.
So this is practically a showcase game for the full game. Let us tell you it includes almost everything that the full game gives you. It is a easy game once you start to understand everything, aka the economy, countries, and so on. We would recommend if you cant get the hang of it or you just keep getting bored playing on the same provenances then we would suggest the other free ones. Also great showcase games. Sincerely, the internet.
We would like to tell you that there is a full version where you can get all of those features for about 4 dollars. Other than that awesome game we really enjoy making new scenarios and watching the Ai battle it out.
The administrative division of cities in some parts of Asia is wrong and l want more module.
We think the game is fun, but it needs some things that could actually work so like the other two games that you need three dollars to pay you should make them free. It makes more sense and its just better like that but the game is like nine out of 10 good job.
Its good great game definitely recommend you play this Everything is amazing except that its hard to switch from 1440 to like United States or 1300.
Its good but when you want to move or recruit more men it sometimes doesnt work for us so may you fix it developer.
It really need more civs and land and changing flags over time.
But we wish they had more countries and more land to takeover.
This game is a brilliant option for beginners to this genre, and we personally love it, but once you get to higher tier games such as Hearts of Iron, it gets boring. It is fun for short periods of time and it is decently simple, however, it gets boring after a while of playing. Gets annoying when the AI begins deathstacking tons of troops, and the AI isnt good either, as we see India attacking Guyana or something sometimes. Its also funny how a lot of idiots on here dont understand this is a demo/lite version and scream about how it ONLY HAS ONE SCENARIO. To sum it up, great for beginners to the genre, not worth playing long term.
Cool but the gameplay is trash ive spent hours figuring this out we try to select map type and it just keeps putting us on the same game.
We see the full version, and we think, can there be a surrender screen? Like, if you surrender, your mainland falls under enemy occupation, Also, can the free version have just Europe. Also, turns are too long. Can each turn go from every 2 days to every year.
We love the strategy involved since you barely see that in most games nowadays.
We are nee and the game is simple but Im experiencing something, like we said Im new, when we invade a country, it doesnt let us send our troops there. Then, the menu saying Move, Recruit, More, Move To just disappears, and we dont know how to get it back. Please help.
Its great dont get us wrong its amazing for a lite game but our question is for the developer how do we change the differant countrys that fight our can we not do that.
It is a great game but it could be better like be able to switch to country to country during the game but it not fair that it call Selene to get the full version at least need to get the modern version into the free version.
We love this game. Its fun and historic. The only problem is that we dont really spend money online. Id much rather have the full game free. Its weird when someplace like France gets taken over but its only the bottom half. So please PLEASE Make the base game free. MAKE AGE OF HISTORY FREE.
Please fix the bugs and make updates :(.
It wont let us choose a scenario.
Half the time kingdoms dont even become bigger half the time.
We love this game but could you make it that you can have provinces from the wasteland and make custom nations in the wasteland.
We wish you could expand outside of the pre set game borders but we guess we gotta pay for the full version, over all good.
It is buggy and needs updates and new maps and things. But really fun after figuring things out.
We love how the actual game itself is mostly like the full version. Two problems though, we dont like the peace negotiations, its always white peace. We also want to edit maps to make it more fun. Once we can Ill get the full version though.
Our big issue with the game is that the bots always destroy the population of every region they touch, so for us to try to make a flourishing empire we need to start from the ground up in every Provence we capture, and second is disease is super annoying, especially when theres no way to prevent it or slow the spread like if we could cut trade from a diseased Provence to reduce the likelihood of it spreading. But overall its a fun game and we might be buying the full version at some point.
We really love this game and once you get the hang of it its easy to take over enemies and rebuild your economy but once you take over enemies they keep spamming you with terms of surrender to get their land back. Its every turn and if you really want to take over a lot of countries you have to press refuse terms every turn. Its really really annoying. We dont know how to make this go away and if you cant please make some way to and we suggest a feature that would be cool: when a country ask you for terms to get their land back you can see the provinces/cities that is returned to them. It would be cool if you could tap those provinces to chose which ones they get as part is the terms of surrender but please fix that part.
This game is amazing, we love the depth and the time that was put into this game to make it a great one! Our only problem was, we have this game on steam, and we were wondering since we have purchased this game once, is there a way to get it for free on mobile, like some sort of verification that we do have it.
It always does this thing where if we conquer somewhere, every two turns it just says that the conquered place wants to make a peace arrangement that gives them all their land back, and its REALLY annoying. Please make that better. P.S, Ive read other reviews, and it doesnt seem like you read these, so try and figure that out.
Game is great its just that now we can use the next turn button, so Im just stuck on the first move. Help.
This game is SO FUN! You can almost do anything there is just one thing this game is a copy of Age of civilizations 2 and needs different maps but we like how you can colonize land (sorry this is so long).
We absolutely love this game, we had it on our Computer when we were younger, and when we saw it in the App Store we decided to play some good ole age of history 2 (lite). Usually for us the game works right. But recently we have been experiencing some bugs. Lets say we are fighting a war against Switzerland, our nation is Hungary, and our allies are Bosnia, Albania, and Austria. This is still a bit early game, so nobody has armies of over 10k, so when we send in an army of 5,750 it basically spells game over for the Swiss, after multiple battles we only have 3k left, which is fine, but suddenly, when we hit next turn, the game turns those soldiers into Swiss soldiers and we lose the entire army. And this has happened more than once, and it is very frustrating because we actually want to win the war. Then, a couple turns later, we get a battle result for a battle a didnt even fight in, we didnt even control any of the nations and it wasnt even fought on our land. It was a battle fought in Spain between Genoa and Castile, and we are Hungary. Also sometimes provinces that we or our allies take during a war go to a nation that didnt own the land prior to the war and didnt even fight in the battle. Also the game sometimes skips over battles altogether, and our units just disappear from the face of the earth.
We stopped playing cause when we try to get wastelands it wont let us.
Its a very good game but you have barely any control of your country dont forget every country declares war on you before you can even start.
What way do you expect? Im just gonna go get the full version because we just we just dont really like it so Im just gonna go get the full version so yeah.
Its got issues. Other than what other people said about the strategy aspect of this game, we think an obvious issue is this: crashing during the middle of the game. This has been happening to this game more than once, and twice, also more than thrice. Thats why we stopped playing this game for a while and then we came back after playing a lot of other games on the App Store. We want to keep playing like as if its not gonna stop but when we get to a certain time period (like 1480) in the game, it STOPS, we mean, buttons stop responding and then when we press a certain button, the whole game screen goes BONKERS, meaning it lags a ton and we cant play it anymore. Otherwise, the concept is great, the tools for diplomacy and war are lucrative, the graphics are engaging, and the quirks in this game are why many people like this game. Four stars for gameplay, but MINUS a star for this bug in the system. Its got to be fixed. Please.
If you cant fight just like it doesnt listen to you ,it may you have no action points,is a blue arrow sign, if you think it is too difficult you just too little time to play,we have play it 3 years,and we always win.
Listen your game is great we love it we play it all the time but we wish we could play the full version without spending 3$ on it, now Im not saying we want you to make it free but can you make it like 2$? We just dont want to spend 3$ on a mobile game.
This game is very good but you cant play with the whole world and theres limited possibilities.
