Fans can jump in and get started or see how their friends did on the quiz. Each question challenges the user to answer either multiple choice questions or make visual choices to decide what kind of ruler they could become. Fans are first asked to choose between a slab of Egyptian marble or a Greek vase to begin their journey and then challenged to describe what they see in the drawing of a man in a cart being carried along by a horse. Is this a warrior eager to spill blood or a missionary eager to pacify the pagans? With each question, fans will become rulers and their vision becomes keener. Screenshots and gameplay capture are populated throughout the quiz to solidify the user’s choices and final choice as a ruler which may help influence their in-game choice once they download and register to play Age of Empires Online.
