If not, and you like turn-based simulation games, the folks at Geekzone have got a VERY detailed review that you should read.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/adrian/aeon.jpg" /><br /><br />"It's so interesting that I had to finish it - even though it meant running to 5% of the battery on my h4150 three times. Yes, it took me three days to play the full game and dominate all countries in the New World, eliminating the enemies of the crown, sending merchant ships to unknown oceans, and fighting epidemics. And that was with all AI (Artificial Inteligence) opponents set to 'weak'. I wonder how long a game would last with all opponents set to 'strong'."<br /><br />Now, THAT'S dedication to finishing the game. The Geekzone review goes on to describe the gameplay, rules and tips for enjoying the game. You have to read all the way to the end of the review to find the two most important parts. First, that's where you find the link to the Aeon support forum. Second, that's where you'll find the code for getting a 15% Handango discount.<br /><br />For anybody out there who has played Aeon, do you agree with Geekzone's assessments?

I just got my review copy of AOD. I haven't installed it yet, but it looks really cool. Getting it set up and started is my weekend job.

It won't be long before we have our own review here at PPCT. :mrgreen:
