Armies of Exigo is a fantasy/strategy PC game. The game is created by Black Hole Entertainment and distributed by Electronic Arts. One unique aspect of the game is that it has an underground mode. This makes the game more challenging as the player has to work on two fronts and might have an army come from an unexpected area.
On August 4, 2006, EA announced their servers for the game will be shutting down in October 2006.
[edit] Gameplay
The gameplay is similar to Warcraft III. There are three armies in the game - The Empire (the human side), The Fallen (an insectivoid monster race), and The Beast (a group of large beast creatures). The player has to gather resources (gold, wood and gems) to produce units and buildings and to research spells and upgrades. The player can also select units and give them orders like attack, move or build. Different unit types are built at different structures.
