Abstract: There are few games one can invest so much time in, win multiple matches of, and surprisingly, still not grasp all it has to offer – yet Civilization VI successfully does just that. After almost 50 hours with the latest 4X strategy game from developer Fir...
It's a promising start to the Civilization VI era. Not a perfect start, and I think longtime fans could be perfectly content playing a full-bodied Civilization V for the next two years, giving Firaxis time to get the kinks out, expand on its better ideas...
Civilization VI is a gem. I love it's homage to history, it's pliability that allows me to recreate my own version of civilization and it is I, as Queen Victoria, who places the Pyramids, Stonehenge and the Hanging Gardens in a semi-circle around my Londo...

Abstract: As the famous saying goes, history is written by the victors.But one game is giving you the chance to change all that, taking your choice of favored country or empire from humble beginnings to dominating the world - and giving you full reign in how you do...
Abstract: When Civilization 5 unstacked units, forcing each onto its own hexagonal tile, and doing away with the dreaded 'stack of doom' in the process, it was a huge relief. In that one neat edit Civ 5 became a clearer and more nuanced game of strategy. In Civ 6...
Which is probably why it's canned unhappiness, or at least unhappiness as it used to exist. Your people can still get sad, and frequently do, but they'll get annoyed now because you haven't provided enough amenities for them to use, often whining about sa...
Keeps the best parts of Civ V, New systems integrate beautifully, The layout of the map matters more than ever, Exciting modding and expansion prospects, AI intentions much clearer
AI still needs to cheat at higher levels
Civilization VI is a triumph of design and gameplay. It takes the best of what worked in its predecessors and making smart additions that seamlessly interlock with and enhance all areas of the game. Civilization V is still one of the best strategy games o...
Deep, engrossing strategy from start to finish, Fantastic presentation and personality, Great new additions to the fundamental mechanics, Refinements and improvements make all of its existing mechanics even better
Religion can be a little spammy
Strategy games live and die on the complexity and satisfaction of the countless decisions made within them, and it's here that Civilization VI stands tall. Where its predecessors laid the foundations and systems of play, this is a game that refines and pe...
With reimagined cities, diplomacy and research progression, Civilization feels familiar enough for veterans while making a lot more sense for newcomers. By far the best Civilization experience we've seen in years, only slightly tarnished by slow load time...
