After two games and their expansions, they focused on their visual style. In the exhibition, hundreds and thousands of 2D Sprite-based units, the third game in this franchise was completely transferred to 3D images, which the studio first introduced in its popular 2002 Age of Mythology release. Immediately after launch, Age of Empires 3 macOS managed to become one of the best-selling Mac games of its time, reaching more than 2 million players in its first three market years. In the age of American exploration, the central offering of this game focuses on eight civilizations (British, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Russian, Dutch, German and Ottoman), moving through five distinct ages and all opening up access to more capable support buildings and military units. In this game, ages include Discovery Age, Colonial Age, Fortress Age, Industrial Age and finally Imperial Age, which opens up access to all buildings, upgrades and defense/attack military units. The game also featured a number of advances that were not in previous releases of this franchise, not least the addition of Local City and the political system, which can award bonuses when certain goals are met. In addition to eight playable civilizations, the game also supports other non-playable civilizations (mercenaries and pirates) as enemies in campaigns and as a playable force in the scenario editor.

  • Mythology Teachers' Guide
    Teachers’ Guide Mythology: The Gods, Heroes, and Monsters of Ancient Greece by Lady Hestia Evans • edited by Dugald A. Steer • illustrated by Nick Harris, Nicki Palin, and David Wyatt • decorative friezes by Helen Ward Age 8 and up • Grade 3 and up ISBN: 978-0-7636-3403-2 $19.99 ($25.00 CAN) ABOUT THE BOOK Mythology purports to be an early nineteenth-century primer on Greek myths written by Lady Hestia Evans. This particular edition is inscribed to Lady Hestia’s friend John Oro, who was embarking on a tour of the sites of ancient Greece. Along his journey, Oro has added his own notes, comments, and drawings in the margins — including mention of his growing obsession with the story of King Midas and a visit to Olympus to make a daring request of Zeus himself. This guide to Mythology is designed to support a creative curriculum and provide opportunities to make links across subjects. The suggested activities help students make connections with and build on their existing knowledge, which may draw from film, computer games, and other popular media as well as books and more traditional sources. We hope that the menu of possibilities presented here will serve as a creative springboard and inspiration for you in your classroom. For your ease of use, the guide is structured to follow the book in a chapter-by-chapter order. However, many of the activities allow teachers to draw on material from several chapters. For instance, the storytelling performance activity outlined in the section “An Introduction to Mythology” could also be used with stories from other chapters.

  • Ancient Greece and Rome in Videogames: Representation, Player Processes, and Transmedial Connections
    Ancient Greece and Rome in Videogames: Representation, Player Processes, and Transmedial Connections Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Ross Clare September 2018 Abstract Videogames are a hugely popular entertainment medium that plays host to hundreds of different ancient world representations. They provide very distinctive versions of recreated historical and mythological spaces, places, and peoples. The processes that go into their development, and the interactive procedures that accompany these games, must therefore be equally unique. This provides an impetus to both study the new ways in which ancient worlds are being reconfigured for gameplayers who actively work upon and alter them, and to revisit our conception of popular antiquity, a continuum within popular culture wherein ancient worlds are repeatedly received and changed in a variety of media contexts. This project begins by locating antiquity within a transmedial framework, permitting us to witness the free movement of representational strategies, themes, subtexts and ideas across media and into ancient world videogames. An original approach to the gameplay process, informed by cognitive and memory theory, characterises interaction with virtual antiquity as a procedure in which the receiver draws on preconceived notions and ideas of the ancient past to facilitate play. This notion of “ancient gameplay” as a reception process fed by general knowledges, previous pop-cultural engagements, and dim resonances of antiquity garnered from broad, informal past encounters allows for a wide, all-encompassing study of “ancient games”, the variety of sources they (and the player) draw upon, and the many experiences these games offer.

  • Command and Conquer in the Development of Real-Time Strategy
    Command and Conquer in the Development of Real-Time Strategy Alex Devkar 3/18/2003 STS145 Professor Henry Lowood 2 Introduction By all accounts, Command & Conquer (C&C) was an immediate and unmitigated success when it was released in late 1995. It spawned one of the most lucrative series in videogame history, and its title has become synonymous with real-time strategy (RTS). Yet, the basis of the game was not original. Dune II, from the same developer, had previously established the RTS genre, and C&C was almost identical in many respects. What made C&C such a sensation was its refinement of Dune II’s gameplay ideas with the addition of several key innovations, which set the standard for all games of the genre to come. Internet play and varied styles of play between the different armies in the game were some of the important advances that are now fundamental to RTS. Furthermore, C&C’s flaws clearly showed some areas in which improvement was possible. The AI was far from perfect, and the idea of devoting more resources to AI became a topic of discussion in the industry. In essence, by both its strengths and weaknesses, the game provided a roadmap for the further development of RTS. History of Westwood The history of Westwood Studios, the developer of C&C, is vital to the RTS genre; without C&C, RTS might be very different today, and without Westwood Studios, RTS might not even exist. It was the company’s commitment to risk-taking and creative freedom that allowed C&C and RTS to bloom.
