Like Civ it allows advanced customization and tweaking options with geography and gameplay to create new and interesting maps to conquer. The long-term replayability and real meat of the gameplay stems from the Random Map Generator. Additionally, over half a dozen Scenarios exist as pre-made maps with special built-in conditions such as 3v1, or 5 player free-for-all on a large island map. There are three main ways to play Age of Wonders III: a long, dual-sided campaign tells the story of the technology-focused and militaristic Commonwealth (those pesky humans) versus the nature-loving Elves and friends. Read my initial thoughts on Age of Wonders in my First Impressions, and check out our Chamber of Game gameplay video below. Age of Wonders III knows its audience very well, combining all the best parts of Heroes of Might and Magic and Civilization to create a tactical experience that’s as fun to oversee on the macro level as it is to wage board game miniatures-like war on the micro battlefield. The turn-based genre has gone through its ups and downs in the last few years (mostly downs, though recent higher-profile games suggest a sharp and exciting increase) but thanks to some major successes from the likes of Civilization V and XCOM: Enemy Unknown, the genre is regaining its viability and successfully finding its audience. The long-awaited sequel to the fantasy turn-based franchise has been resurrected and proves that, with a little Notch magic, dreams do come true.Īge of Wonders III plays out similarity to its previous iterations, back in a time when PC strategy games (both real time and turn-based) were a dime a dozen. Strategically planning each tactical move in a world that makes Chess look like Checkers, perfectly managing my resources and empire, and carefully skirting the subtle art of diplomacy to tip in my favor are all staples of the genre that Age of Wonders III excels at.

I’ve found I enjoy a myriad of genres and types, but something about the turn-based, 4X strategy game gets me excited in all the right places.

While many of us claim to be gamers, there are such a wide variety of genres and tastes that it often comes down to just what kind of games and mechanics you enjoy: 2D platformers, first person shooters, sports simulations.
