Lord of Ages is somewhat like any other war-based browser game you can basically find in the internet, almost similar to Call of Gods hosted by Aeria Games as well, save instead of a mythical setting, Lord of Ages runs along the lines of the Middle Ages where it was then common to come across power-hungry lords bent on expanding their reign over the land as far and wide as any power-hungry lord could actually afford.
