"It is recognition of the hard work and dedication from everyone at Glu, and a vote of confidence in our continued commitment to creating original and innovative mobile entertainment."

The AIAS award comes on the heels of a number of accolades for Ancient Empires II and several other Glu titles. Marc Ecko's Getting Up, the mobile game based on the console and PC game born from a collaboration with Atari Inc. and fashion pioneer Marc Ecko, recently won Spike TV's award for Best Wireless Game of 2005. Last month, Ancient Empires II was crowned Game of the Year by UK website Mobile Game FAQs.

Ancient Empires II is the epic sequel to the award-winning Ancient Empires.

The game challenges players to battle alongside King Galamar and control fire-breathing dragons, lethal archers and fearsome wolves as they fight to defend their kingdom. Players can choose different kinds of troops as they decide on their own battle strategies, and can even challenge up to four friends with the pass-and-play skirmish mode.
