Age of Empires III is a real-time strategy video game developed by Microsoft Corporation’s Ensemble Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios. Players begin with a constructed town center or a wagon that will build into such, an armed explorer, and a modest number of villagers. Players explore the map and begin gathering resources used to build additional units and buildings and to research upgrades or technologies. Actions such as training units, constructing buildings, killing enemy units etc., earn the player experience points. At certain experience point thresholds, players earn shipments that may be turned in for cards from the player’s Home City, which can include units, upgrades, or resources. The game progresses similar to most real-time strategy games until one side resigns.
