Civilization IV (PC)

Civilization 4 happens to be one of my all-time favourite strategy games. This game seems to be the closest to realistic city building and related activities. The game also have two pretty good expansions - Warlords and Beyond the Sword. There has already been lots of games related to empire building, like Caesar, Zeus, Pharaoh and Cleopatra, but none of them were as addictive as Civilization 4. This game seems to give the same importance to the combat aspects unlike the other games mentioned. This turn-based game can be termed as an all-round strategy game which has covered lots of aspects of various civilizations. MINIMUM SYSTEM ...  Read the complete review

I brought this game from apple store two months ago, I like strategy games and before played ceesar 3 and loved it . I brought this game because I thought it is similarti cesar 3 but it wasnt. the civilization game has very complicated features and its not very enjoyable to play , the reason for this is when you are trying to build a city you dont see real houses building , it only says city and workers and worriors comes out of it but nothing moves unles you tell them to and you have tokeep telling them. The good thing about this game is you can build different civilizations for example, roman empire, german empire, americans, ottoman and so onn but the ...  Read the complete review

Way back in the mists of time… well 1991 a long time in PC game terms, there was a game called Civilization. This was the new offering from Sid Meyer who had had great success with a previous strategy game called ‘Railroad Tycoon’. Civilisation was one of the most ambitious strategy game ever produced, its premise was for the player from very humble beginnings to create a civilisation and through conflict, co-operation and skill build it up to reach out to the stars. The game was a huge hit and it quickly became acknowledged as the best turn based strategy game ever made. Since then ‘improved’ versions Civ 2 and Civ 3 have been produced, which have on the ...  Read the complete review

I have always enjoyed this game series ever since I was little and played Sid Meiers civilization on my first PC. When you first start the game you are given loads of choices as to the design of the world including, the size of the globe, the layout (islands, one giant land mass, continents, and loads more), the terrain and the climate. So basically you never play the same game twice, as one little change in these settings changes the whole game. You also choose which civilisation you want to play as, this includes a huge selection of both modern and ancient civilisations, each with a leader who has two traits, which gives you an advantage in the areas they are ...  Read the complete review

Well I don't even know where to start! I can honestly say, in my opinion this is the best game in the best series ever made! Incredibly entertaining, fun and don't expect brain rot as you do have to do some tactical thinking! I mean who hasn't wanted to run their own country? Essentially it's even better than that as you even get to choose where your nation is. Grow, expand and conquer. The game follows well from the previous installments and improves onto a whole new level. The ability to listen to your own Mp3's during game play is a welcome change. This game is however not for you if you are not into turn based games, it is not the ...  Read the complete review
