Age of Empires Mobile 9+

I have played this game since the start. It is enjoyable and immersive. However it is extremely frustrating that it is advertised as a free game but you cannot get immersed fully if you are not spending money, because you will continually lose to those that are spending. It makes the game feel like you are being bullied with nothing to do about it if you cant pay. I would suggest that active players be rewarded more(more and better daily rewards, better resource production so those sitting on the game can collect more, etc) so that there is an incentive to play. Otherwise it's fun for a bit until you realise you cant participate in the alliance battles. Then you will delete it and feel like you wasted your time.

Dear Governor, thank you for your suggestion. We'll submit it to our dev team and it will be taken into careful consideration. We believe that with your help, the game will become better. We also invite you to follow our official channels to get the latest game news.

Well done to the developers. Sold your souls for a quick buck on the mobile format. Completely soulless cash grab. As many other hundreds have pointed out here and no doubt many thousands more fans wanted, all you had to do was make a refurbed version of the original game. Your response to other such comments has been that it presented difficulties to make such a game. Do not lie to your fans with utter nonsense. Look at what total war achieved with their games. Just admit it was purely a cash grabbing exercise to convert the game to a format which would make a lot of money from in app purchases, all while tarnishing the name of a classic game. It’s all very well calling the game merely “inspired” by the original AOE now, that didn’t stop you advertising for months using clips which made the game look like it would be a remake of the original in order to drum up excitement.

I really hope this pitiful cash grab gets dumped quickly by the new players who have dipped into the series for the first time with this game who will soon be looking for the next fad pay to win game. Your disappointed core fans will now have now ditched you forever.

As someone who grew up with the classic game, I’m now in my 30s and busy with work and family. I was so excited to have a version of this game in my pocket which I could fit into my life. Unbelievably disappointed.

Dear Governor, thanks for your feedback! We are still working on optimizing Age of Empires Mobile. Therefore, if you have any suggestions or ideas in this regard, please send us through the customer service on the settings interface. Have a nice day!

Let me start by saying I was a huge, huge fan of Age of Empires I, II and III. Huge… I’d probably go as far as to say I talk about other PC games in terms of what the ratio of gameplay was in relation to time played on AoE (The AoE factor if you like). So that sets the tone for what follows. Now imagine you see an email to say that there is an AoE game which is new and available to iPhone users. Well you’d be pretty excited… Right up to that moment that you realise it isn’t actually AoE at all! I don’t get it. It happened to Scrabble too. It’s a great game, it has a huge fan base. It’s not asking for a revamp, but who cares about the end consumer, let’s just ruin it for the fans. And here we go again with AoE. Why change it? Why use the name to desecrate the game’s legendary and noble name? I’m going to take a punt and say there was no focus group here. No one is really going to say let’s have some more of that garbage we can already get on the market, that’d be just awesome! That doesn’t happen. Why is it so hard to take a classic game and simple format that is universally loved and totally trash it? It’s sacrilege. All the game needed was converting to an iPhone format and maybe a little modernising TLC. A one off cost of £10, £15, £20… I’d pay it dagnamit, but not for this. I’m not going to kill my commuter time playing this. Shame on you, I don’t know how you sleep at night…

Dear governor, Age of Empires Mobile incorporates many elements from Age of Empires and tries to recreate the classic gameplay. However, porting RTS game to mobile platform presents many challenges. It may not fully meet the expectations of players, but we hope to continue and innovate the Age of Empires IP. Thank you for your understanding.
