Down from £14.99 and said to be one of the best RTS games of all time. I'm also led to believe that the Windows Store version (which also includes achievements), where it's the same price is cross compatible with the Steam player base.
Rise of Nations is a real-time strategy game that spans all history.
Start with a single city in the Ancient Age; gather resources; build an infrastructure; research technologies; construct Wonders of the World such as the Pyramids and the Eiffel Tower; and expand your military might across the world, conquering hostile nations with bombers, battleships, and tanks—all over your lunch hour!
In Rise of Nations there are:
18 Nations—each with special abilities and unique military units.
Over a hundred military units operating on the ground, sea, and air— from Hoplites to Frigates to Helicopters.
Over two dozen buildings with upgrades and technologies that will take your nation from a small City to an Information Age society.
14 Wonders of the World—the Terra Cotta Army, the Taj Mahal, the Eiffel Tower. Each gives your nation special bonuses.
More than a dozen map types, ranging from the Amazon Rainforest to the Himalayas to the Nile Delta.
Conquer the World campaign—a linked series of dozens of scenarios.
The Extended Edition includes:
Rise of Nations
Rise of Nations: Thrones and Patriots
New in the Extended Edition:
Improved Visuals
Improved water
Improved textures
Full-screen anti-aliasing
Full Steamworks Integration

Rise of Nations was a cracking game back in the day... Now who wants to pretend they are Kim Jong Un and create Nuclear Armageddon in the Modern Age.

Went to check GPU benchmarks... Seems most modern cards achieve around 3,800 FPS. ....Okay then. Probably fine.

Do I have to be logged in as me to play this game if I buy it from the Microsoft store?
I want to buy it but install the game on PC the family use for gaming. Obviously, I don't want the children accessing my Microsoft account.
Thanks in advance.
