Age of Mythology (sometimes abbreviated AoM) is a real-time strategy computer game in theAge of Empires series by Ensemble Studios. It was first published in November 2002 by Microsoft. Unlike its predecessors, Age of Empires and Age of Kings, Age of Mythology has less of a focus on historical accuracy. Instead, the game centers on the myths and legends of the Ancient Greeks, the Ancient Egyptians, and the Norse, allowing players to not only control the historical aspects of these three great civilizations (such as Hoplites, Pharaohs, and Longboats, respectively) but also mythological creatures such as Minotaurs, Centaurs, Phoenixes, and Valkyries in order to crush opponents.
