Age of Empires: The Age of Kings is a turn-based strategy

game for the Nintendo DS. It was produced by Majesco and released February 14, 2006. The game allows the player to take command of one of five different historical civilizations: the Britons, the Franks, the Mongols, the Saracens and the Japanese. The game has a single-player campaign and a scenario mode; it also has multiplayer wireless and hotseat modes. The gameplay is turn-based and similar to Advance Wars in movement and combat, but as a derivative of a real-time strategy (RTS) series, it incorporates several features more commonly associated with RTS games (particularly technology trees and resource/building management). The playing field is divided into a grid. Units can only move and attack in the four cardinal directions. Ranged units are exceptions, as they can attack diagonally if the target is in range.
