Age of Inventors is a real time strategy game that is set in sort of an in-between time, where ancient figures battle with futuristic technology.

There are five different civilizations, each one taking after a different inventor or discoverer: Darwin, DaVinci, Galileo, Edison, and Archimedes. each civilization has a few unique units, a special hero, a unique tech, a special "power", and a few bonuses.

The resources in Age of Inventors are Electricity, Metal, Wood, Food and Gold. Gold and Metal are mined from mines. Food is hunted from animals or grown on farms. Electricity is produced by Power Plants and shipped out through Power Lines.
