Call to Power 2 is the latest of the Civilisation series, and although it does not bear the famous name due to some legal problems, it does have the same great gameplay that made all the previous games so good. I actually got Call to Power 1 and Call to Power 2 from Amazon for only £25, which was good considering that everywhere else was charging that much just for the second one on its own. Even better though, is that opinion is divided on which is best so I could try them both out for myself. What was clear was that a lot of people thought the original game was flawed, and the second was an attempt to put right the mistakes they made in the first game. ...  Read the complete review

For me the Civilisation series is what a strategy game should contain. In both Civilisation and Civilisation 2 have it all and for me are classics. In Civilisation 2: Call to Power follows the same aims as the original Civilisation, you build your original city, extract the local resources to build a home base, then go off explore and take new land, by force in necessary.

On each turn you can move ...  Read the complete review

I'm a sucker for strategy simulation games and this one hasn't let me down. I had not played its predecessor, Civilisation:Call to Power, but I'm told that this is a vast improvement in every way. Taking it as I find it, however, it's got all the elements that a good game of this type needs and I can see myself playing it (on and off) for months ahead. You start off in the year 4000BC with only a sim settler for company. Before you is a huge, unexplored map. You choose what looks like a good place to start and get building. Every time you take a turn, you can build, explore, grow, trade, fight and expand. Every so often, as the time ...  Read the complete review
