If your looking for something to boost your brain power over the course of your life, this game is it. Better than any college for world history lessons. I literally talk about various historical concepts from this game that my wife, who is a history teacher, is surprised a dumb construction guy like me knows so much about world history.
I've played all the Civ games, including VI and VII. I keep coming back to this one. It's the best
It just goes to show sometimes newer is not always better. I have 2950 hours on this game, I have only spent maybe 15 bucks on expansions over the years and I still play it a fair amount. Great game with the expansions, the AI is tough and no 2 games are ever the same, great replay value...
