A true classic flash game. It's still fun, but the second one is still better in my opinion. It's too bad the second one isn't on Kongregate.

I think about this game a lot.
It just really shows up the tragedy of war in a way no other game does. Just you and an identical enemy, throwing waves of waves of minions that are perfectly even matched. No strategy or advancement breaks the stalemate- you never get close to taking the enemy's base, they never get close to taking yours. Millennia of uncountable, pointless deaths. And when it's finally over? There's nothing but a meaningless victory screen. Nothing's accomplished.
I genuinely don't know if this is genius or not.

I actually beat this game a couple of months ago and well I kind of forgot to log. I don't want to sound like a hater, but this just isn't my type of flash game, I think. doesn't mean it's bad though.

Age of War is still playable on silvergames. com. Full screen and without supernova player. On the downside, I had an advertisement that interrupted the game each single time I took the special weapon. Maybe this gets better if you choose out the cookies very carefully.

For those curious about how to play Age of War post-Flash with the SuperNova SWF Enabler plug-in, use this address provided below by copying the entirety of it and pasting it onto the address bar at the top of your browser to ensure that it bypasses the ‘GameShell’ issue that have plagued many earlier games of Kongregate: supernova://play/?swfurl=https://chat.kongregate.com/gamez/0001/8028/live/ageofwar_kongregate.swf?kongregate_game_version=1217529793 Make sure that your latest installation of SuperNova works correctly, as it will not function if it cannot load games that can work fine without this bypassing of the SWF files here. As a tip for this game, it is a good idea to balance the melee units with the ranged units by having one ranged unit behind the melee and two in the later ages whilst throwing in the heavy units near the end, also to make use of turrets near the end when they are at their most useful.

this game doesn't work and i can't find a supernova version to get the badge anywhere, does anyone have a link to the working supernova version? the agame version wont work for the badge and if it does the badge should be changed from medium to easy

you can still play it at other sites, it's not gone yet. Supernova is annoying though, it doesn't run that many games, and one game that I really like, don't want to install; it won't let me sign in in.

You can play Age of War at Newgrounds, here's the link https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/408209 I don't know about you guys but supernova works fine for me with most things in Newgrounds. Hope this helps.

Supernova is useless anyway. I can't maximize the window or make it larger. I have to play games in a small window. Useless, fing useless.

And there goes one of the most memorable gems of my childhood. I hope the game gets fixed cuz... well, besides Minecraft that is nearly the last one of the names I used to play as a little kid

Winning impossible is all about cost effectiveness and overkill. Turrets have infinite rates of return because they don't deteriorate at all. Many of the inexpensive units do far better in terms of cost effectiveness because they do some amount of damage and are overkilled by a gargantuan amount. Because there's no benefit of gaining ground if you don't actually destroy the enemy tower, you can indefinitely use your turrets to stave off the enemy until you can overrun them with your own siege. Also, you can pause and unpause to stop enemies (and allies) from completing their attacks, while turrets and quicker enemies have already completed theirs. You don't need this to win as meat shields are virtually free, but it can be helpful to end the game with your fast-attacking super soldiers. 5/5, still enjoyed it 12 years after release!

My childhood... and even now, the graphics and gameplay are just fine and can be seen as "up to date". Musik is also just great, although that might be nostalgia. and, oddly enough, I feel like the double turrets are the best defensive weapon for the endgame. I can just leave for half an hour with them and the AI can't even reach me, even with flying tanks!

Was winning the ages with just cavemen (dino, sling, repeat) before I realized I had to manually upgrade (grr). Then spammed musketeer gunners and won.

I lost with 1 unit left to train for the easy badge. Age 4 suddenly made prices so high that I could only train a single guy and when he was killed I didn't have enough money for another guy. *Start new game. Train one guy. Exit game.*
