Age of Empires: The Age of Kings

LOVED Age of Empires the Rise of Rome, But this game lacks the spirit and time that makes AoE a good fun game.

I got this thinking it would be like the computer game version. First off, it doesn't go online, so no fighting other people. A tiny letdown. Then I found you can't build more than like 2 different buildings, that made me mad. Some other things wrong with it? Lack of resources, graphic problems, game is to easy to beat, what's the point of even putting it on the touch screen? But the game was ok if you like cheap knock offs of award winning computer games from like 5 years ago. Not a game I'd recomend to friends, family, or bassically anyone.
