Age of Mythology - Fun at many levels

My son and I have played all of the iterations of Age of Empire. Age of Mythology uses a very similar game play experience as AOE 3. I have to admit, though, using the cheats makes this a real blast. Without the cheats, the computer just gets too many god powers going to let your team get strong enough to compete well (but that's the challenge, right?) I use the game on an older Windows XP with no trouble. The graphics and sound are excellent. The game features some really cool "X" factors that take this to a whole new level above the AOE games.

Inexpensive Fun

I bought this game on the recommendation of a friend and I am soooo glad I did. It was addictive. And not a cake walk to complete. (which I like)

An excellent installment for the Age of Mythology saga

First of all let me tell you that this is one of the best expansion packs I've seen and played so far.

Age of Mythology caught my attention and made me play it for months. It was fairly easy to use and the topic it covered, mythological units and human units fighting side by side, was addictive.

It dealt with only 3 civs, Norse, Greek & Egyptian, but each civ had not even their own peculiarities but also their very own gods which made the customizing level so high you could see each side with their very own units.

Now a new civilization, the Atlanteans, appears on stage and it's, IMHO, the best of all. They are slow but very very powerful.

But the title of the game derives from the new myth unit, the Titan. Each civ can summon one titan to their aid. These units are HUGE (I really mean it) and the most powerful of the whole game. They can tear building to pieces in one second and normal units are like mosquitoes for them. Be aware!

The game adds a new campaign dealing with the misfits of the son of Arkantos, the last Atlantean, trying to set up a new Atlantis.

I haven't given this game a 5 star because I consider that only 1 civilization is not enough. I know there are not many nations which had a huge pantheon of gods, but there could have been other choices also, such as Hindu mythology for instance.

Overall, if you liked Age of Mythology you're gonna love Titans. It'll give you many and many hours of fun and you won't regret buying it.

If you like the main game, you will also like this

In a lot of ways, this is just more of the same, which is a good thing. If you like the main game, then you will also like this expansion.

I did note that this expansion is quite a bit harder than the main game. I ended up playing it at a lower difficulty, because I realized I just wasn't having fun.

This expansion adds a few gameplay twists. Many scenarios require you to either hold a position or protected certain things for a specified amount of time. Personally, I like scenarios where I am on the offense rather than the defense a lot better.

There also are a number of scenarios where you are somewhat limited in what you can do. Often, you can not create settlements for instance, which means that a lot of things you could normally do (like creating new workers) you can not do here. You simply have to do with what you are given.

Overall, I liked playing this expansion, although I liked the main game better.

Welcome Addition

The elements that the Titans expansion adds are incredible. The Atlantians are great to play and the fact that you can turn them all into heroes is very helpful.
Plus the the Titans are awesome!! The Titan's ability to destroy an entire civilization by itself is unbelieveable.
The only letdown for the game is that besides the addition of the Titan, there are no changes to the other races.

Great Visit on an Old Game (Style)

Although games of this type have been made buy the dozen, Age of Mythology still manages to give a new spin on the genre. With God powers, exceptionaly unique cultures, and a vast campaign, AoM manages to be a very good game.

Colleen McEdwards and her family play "Age of Mythology: The Titans Expansion" because it's Colleen's Favorite Strategy Game. Colleen and her family have it in "Kings & Myths: The Age Collection". The Titans Expansion requires "Age of Mythology" to play.

Age of Gods & Heroes & also Monsters

This game is one of the greatest game Microsoft ever made. The great graphic makes the game fuuner and the playing moods (like campain, single player,...) makes it way different from other strategy games. It is from the creators of Age of Empires II, but believe me eventhough if you didn't like the Age of Empires, you would like this one.
The campain mood makes the game like a journey and for me... I couldn't stop playing because I really wondered what will happen next.
The multiplayer mood is kinda different from Age of Empires, you must sign up and establish a new user account.
It's also educational cause you can get a lot of information from the stories about the Greek, Egypttion, ... gds and gddsses and the myths.
I really recomend this game.

The gameplay of it is amazing. The plot is too. It is cool how they thought of using Kastor, son of Arkantos to continue as a sequel to Age of Mythology. The Titans were fun to play, so as the new myth units. But I used only 2 myth units during the whole Titans campaign! This is only 12 scenarios while the first one kept you entertained long enough as 32 scenarios! I just got this game yesterday, and I'm already finished with it! This game is easy, and if you know the cheats, it's a lot easier. It is sooooooooooooooo short! I thought I would actually use all of the myth units, but NO, i used only 2! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! SHORT!
If you want fun for maybe 2 days or 3, than I recommend you get the Titans, but if you really want to play long, than get the first Age of Mythology.
