Age Of Empires Promotional Sample

Post by NUDDER »

Hello

I have a quick and easy question what is this game worth I have done some searching and I can not find anything about how much this game is. It is sealed and does say promotional sample not for resale. i only payed $2.80 for the game at a thrift store near my house.

Thanks

It was a demo of the Age of Empires game (I think produced by Microsoft at first?) which came out in maybe late 90's. It is a historical real time stratgey game similar to Command & Conquer. On the disk you were allowed to play and advance your civilization up to a certain point if I remember correctly.

I too had this disc and then went on to buy the full game. It was superseded by AOE 2 and then 3...both pretty fun. As for the price, cant say it is worth very much especially if it is a time or limited demo.

You can also install that demo from an original game CD so friends could try it out without having the CD.
Thanks everyone...

Sadly the value is very little. PC demos dont go for a whole lot since the full games go for fairly cheap most of the time. Ive never seen a PC game demo go for more than a couple dollars.
