I love this old style Civilizations Game. I tried the new style and it was too involved for me. I like this simple and fun game. These new games are too HIGH TECH for me!

You can keep these over graphicized newfangled games for my the best "take over the world" simulator will always be the first Sid Mier's Civilization build an empire to stand the test of time. For its time the graphics were top of line it was fun and totality addictive everything a good game should be.

This is the game at its basic level, which for those of us of an older generation can appreciate. No time on your hands to spend days learning from a guide how to play a game? Well, this version is great. Just start the program and your off. Unlike many of the games today, Civilization reaches back to the times when we didn't need much to be able to pick up the idea of a game. Anyone could play. Unfortunately, this is a much overlooked niche in today's market. Look beyond the graphics to the very basic game play and this is a 5 star.

Graphics are an extra frill, not the foundation of a game. I think more of todays games designers should take that little fact into account.

I tried the later versions, but none were as addictive as the original. Who needs sleep? I LOVE this game!
