Age of War - evolution based strategy Time Waster

Filed under: Fun, Games, Kids, Time-Wasters, Web

Age of War is a side-scrolling strategy game where the goal of the game is to destroy the other side's base. You start out in the stone age, and evolve through five distinct ages until you're doing war with futuristic hovering vehicles and super soldiers.

You earn both money and experience for destroying the other side's units, and you have to carefully decide on a balance between stationary turrets to protect your base, and units to attack with. Since both sides are continually evolving, a turret that is strong soon becomes less so, so it's often a better bet to put your resources into units early in the game.

You can only place turrets on your home base, and the same holds true for your computer opponent. This makes the game frustratingly well balanced, because as the battle moves towards either side, that side gets a boost from the turrets coming into play. You pretty much have to evolve to the final age before you can mount an attack that is sufficiently overwhelming to claim victory, or at least I did.

How quickly can you beat Age of War? How'd you do it?
