The gameplay is also rather smooth, though it can take some time between turns. This makes possible some great gameplay diversity. You can end up developing your civilization in strange and lopsided ways. Despite the marketing which seemed to take itself seriously, this game is all about cartoony fun in a historical setting. You will interact with them, trade with them and go to war with them using the military units you produce in your cities.Ĭivilization VI is not a historical reenactment, more closely resembling “Peabody’s Improbable History” from a Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon. You will also meet other civilizations who are trying to expand and develop their empires. Assuming you are successful, you will take a simple nomadic tribe and turn it into a post-industrial empire with aircraft carriers, nuclear bombs and the ability to reach another planet (though that is where the game ends). As the game progresses, you build more cities, more soldiers and develop technologies that will take you to our current level of technological development. For those unfamiliar with the Civilization franchise, the game begins with a settler who can build a city and a guy with a club.
It draws on the best aspects of the Civilization franchise, refines and explores them in new, frankly superior, ways and produces a complete, well-tested and incredibly fun experience on launch.Ĭivilization VI is, of course, a turn-based 4X (explore, expand, exploit and exterminate) game in a historical setting.
CIVILIZATION VI PLATFORMS SERIES
This game seeks to give new players a jumping on point in the series while providing fans with a new experience and succeeds on both fronts.
The new concepts introduced work extremely well and the twists on classic elements are so well done they make one wonder why things weren’t always done in this fashion. The game begins with almost all of the features in Civilization V and adds new concepts and twists on classic elements of the game. What are your thoughts on Civilization VI? Let us know in the comments.Sid Meier’s Civilization VI, from Firaxis, is the latest installment in the storied Civilization franchise.
But in order to keep things fresh there are also some non-historical traits that will be randomly assigned at the start of each game.Īll-in-all this is a worthy successor to the excellent Civ V and will satisfy both experienced players and those new to the franchise. The AI leaders behave in a more varied ways too, which are appropriate to their historical personalities.
Your empire learns by doing – for example if you want to research masonry then it’ll be learnt twice as quickly if you have a quarry. There are changes to research itself too: it’s become more active. However, unlike Endless Legend‘s districts, Civilization VI ones have specific purposes – for example all your research buildings will be built on a campus tile. Workers themselves are gone altogether, replaced by Builders, who now have a set number of uses before they disappear.Īnother major change is that cities now have districts – a concept we saw in the excellent 4x game Endless Legend. Trade routes, for example, are now used to establish roads between settlements rather than using Workers to build roads for you. Like all good sequels, Civ VI is both similar and different to 2010’s Civ V. All the core mechanics and gameplay systems that we saw in Civ V and its expansions, such as trade routes, religion and espionage are present but with subtle differences. Sid Meier’s Civilization VI is the sixth instalment in the popular strategy game series.
