The units roaming these environments are incredibly detailed, move naturally over the terrain, and come to life through hundreds of fluid animations. Amazing special effects change the look of this beautiful world when the gods get involved: all grows dark as an eclipse takes effect, funnel clouds twist and grow as a tornado sends buildings spinning toward the heavens, and meteors streak in from the heavens to send people and armies at the point of impact flying.

- HISTORY MADE LARGER THAN LIFE
- Age of Mythology was created by Ensemble Studios, the makers of Age of Empires and Age of Kings, which together have sold over 11 million units and garnered praise around the globe as two of the best computer games ever created. Age of Mythology preserves the familiar elements popular in previous Age of Empires games. Wonders, civilization bonuses, technology trees, empire building, and large armies clashing on fields of battle are all at the heart of the game. Age of Mythology refines even more what Age of Kings nearly perfected and adds Mythology, creating an entirely new experience.

Batz! Screensaver 2.1 is a new screensaver which helps you decorate your desktop with bats. One of the most misunderstood mammals, bats are actually very beneficial to mankind and the environment. They help control harmful insect populations, as well as rain forest regeneration, among other benefits. Although much of western culture fear or loath bats, many cultures view bats as symbols of happiness, and good luck.

The only mammal truly able to fly, there are hundreds of species of bats. Most are insect eaters, but there are species that feed on small animals and fish, fruit, and even nectar. Some bats are responsible for cross-pollinating night blooming trees, shrubs, and cacti. There are only three species of Vampire bats, all found in Mexico, and throughout South America. They prefer to feed on the blood of birds and cattle, and very rarely that of humans.

With Batz on your Macs, Balin and his bat buddies fly around your screen hunting for food. A full moon shines, and the gentle sound of crickets can be heard in the background. Mesmerizing, and very relaxing.

You may use Batz for FREE, but if you register for $5.00, you also get three additional bats, including Balins' girlfriend, Bella, and a realistic Little Brown Bat. Other benefits of registration include background customization features.
