Age Of War

How to Play Age of War

You start in simple times. Cavemen with bats and rock catapult times. Each age brings entirely new units and weapons, from cave dwellers riding dinosaurs to the futuristic hover tanks of the future age. 

To stay in the game, you need to create enough units and turrets to hold back pressure from your opponent, all while developing enough force to reach their base. To defend your headquarters, you can set up turrets and develop further spots for more defensive weapons.

You have a special attack, too. Artillery strikes and gods raining rocks, to name two. Special attacks are ideally used when you’re in trouble and there are lots of enemy units advancing toward you.

Five Ages

There are five stages of evolution in Age of War. You can advance to a new age when you’ve earned enough XP from killing your enemy’s troops! The five ages are:

• Stone age
• Castle age
• Renaissance age
• Modern age
• Future age

The Age of War Legacy

Age of War was originally released as a Flash game by Louissi in 2007. It was one of the first base defense games and helped popularize the genre. The game has certainly stood the test of time; it’s still hugely popular today. Nowadays, you can play Age of War in HTML5 for free!
