Despite its age the graphics and animations are actually simple but good, for the time this game was made it was a challenge to do what they did in it and they did it actually decent!
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Game is very fun for its time, it drops some really good combat game play that rivals total war.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I prefer 'Imperial Glory' to 'Empire: Total War', due to the superior tutorial, the overall feel, the shorter waiting time between turns (mainly thanks to the omission of visual gimmickry), and the nicer interface design, voice-overs and music.
