If those don't sound exciting, or if you don't even know what those are, then don't worry Cossacks also works on a purely entertainment level. So you'll get to experience things like the Thirty Years War and the Ukranian war for independence. It spans the 17th and 18th centuries (essentially picking up where AOK left off), and it focuses on events in Europe. But while AOK managed to hit every note just about right, Cossacks mixes together some harmony and cacophony (continuing the metaphor) and doesn't quite achieve the same elegance of gameplayIn case it wasn't clear from the introduction, Cossacks is a historical real-time strategy game. Now, if you're going to imitate a game, AOK is a good choice because 1) nobody else has done it yet, and 2) AOK was about as good as a real-time strategy game gets.
Yeah, Cossacks does some things differently, and it can allow you to have up to 8,000 units in the game at once, but once you play it you'll see the AOK influence all over the place, from the look and feel of the game right down to some specific buildings and units being the same. Fans of the game and even Ukrainian developer GSC Game World might disagree with the following statement, but Cossacks: European Wars is an Age of Empires 2: the Age of Kings (AOK) clone.
