Age of Empires Age of Empires (often abbreviated to AoE or AofE), is a history-based real-time strategy computer game developed by Ensemble Studios and released by Microsoft in 1997. The game allows the player to act as the leader of an ancient civilization by advancing them through four ages: the Stone, Tool, Bronze, and Iron Age. Actions are performed by units that represent formations of people, and the player gains access to new and improved units with each advance. An expansion, Age of Empires: The Rise of Rome, was released the next year. The design team at Ensemble Studios focused on resolving significant issues in the original Age of Empires, but noted on release that some problems remained, such as difficulties with the artificial intelligence.
