DESCRIPTION

Similar to earlier Age of Empires games for portable systems, the mobile version of Age of Empires III converts the real-time strategy play found in the title's popular home computer editions for turn-based play on the go. Expansion is the focus of the third game. Players compete with rival nations to establish dominating colonies in new lands. In each scenario, players harvest resources, build and upgrade establishments, and create new working and fighting units, to overwhelm or defeat enemy forces on the map. The game's main campaign has players defending Western Europe from the Ottoman invasion, in a prequel to the campaigns found in the computer versions of the game. Scripted missions lead through interactive history, as players face famous armies and leaders from the age of colonization. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
