I'll still crack open any one of the Age of Empires series from time to time.
You just reminded me I have the first version of that game around somewhere, I might dig it back out one of these days soon.
The original and Rise of Rome are great. If you don't have Rise of Rome it's almost mandatory, it runs a lot better and has a lot of quality of life improvements, like a higher population cap.
