SUPER FUN GAME THAT YOU SHOULD TRY

This game is one of my favorites. Although is a slow game it's a fun game. the music is the most beautiful music in a game, and it gives a good challenge for good players and a easy mode for new players. It has many ways to win and (for more experienced players) can choose the way you can win and is super customizable to the point were you can do what ever want with each game,like if you want to be a global super power or the smartest people on the planet it's all your choice, solike a slow game with a fun historical twist this game is for YOU!

Great Game.

Civilization VI is one of the greatest grand strategy games out there. The Game was a massive leap from Civ 5 introducing new mechanics. Although this game does have a steep learning curve.

one more turn

Amazing game, I have spent a lot of time on it. No real violence, some of the female leaders are a bit fan-servicey(Jadwiga). Each leader and civ have different bonuses, but the game is very complicated and the expansions have pretty steep prices. Overall, great game.

AWESOME.

Once you learn how to play it, you will think that this is the best game on earth. You get to control a whole empire, from the Ancient era with wooden sticks and dirt houses, to the information era, with skyscrapers and tanks. You get to choose what you research, control what cities make, and do diplomacy in a bunch of other ways. If I described every single good thing in Civilization VI, this would be a mile long. The game does not advertise or have any consumerism at least in game, the game is worth its price. Civilization VI allows you to have better strategy, because it isn't a "Grand Strategy Game" for no reason. You have to plan your districts, and plan how you will win! Speaking of winning, there are a variety of win conditions, and how you win will dictate what you want, whether a big military, strong culture, science, or missionaries to spread religion. Whenever you play, you will want to take Just...One...More...Turn.

Very entertaining and educational

This game is not only fun to play but it's also highly educational as you learn about different world leaders and other famous people. It also includes lots of in depth strategy. Civilisations/characters-There are are plenty of civilisations/characters to play as including: Queen Victoria of the English, Teddy Roosevelt of America, Catherine de Merci of France, Harald Hadrada of Norway and lots more. Each civilisation as their own unique unit or building for example: the English have Redcoats from the British empire, the Norwegians have berserkers and huscarls both warrior units ext. All the characters have different personalities, the French are money stubbers which means they dislike civilisations that are poor and Norway dislike people with a weak navy. Scenarios- There are a few different scenarios in the game which have a specific storyline. They portray historical events like the conquest of Alexander the great or when Harald Hadrada invaded England. Violence- There is a bit of violence in this game but nothing too bad. Small units go into battle where some of them may die but no blood is seen. Occasionally, the units perform a different move from normal for example a spearman might impale an enemy and shake around there body. Later in the game when you reach the more recent eras you can create nuclear bombs. When it hits the city or location you send it to destroy a huge mushroom cloud explosion destroys all nearby places. The red death mode- This mode is an online multiplayer game that's set at the end of the world. This game mode play is pure violence. It's set in a wasteland where the last one standing wins.

Amazing game

This game is so amazing. I played civ 5 on the mac for a while than i wanted to bring it with me. The fraphics are so much better and the gameplay is amazing. You can choose from many different leaders and there doesnt even need to be violence.

One of the best strategy games out there

This game is among Hearts of Iron 4 and Stellaris on the great strategy games board. It is very unique and while difficult at first, it is easy to learn and master. I love the full freedom it gives to make your own empire, giving you unlimited choice. Some people complain that you can do horrible things, but let's face it, it is a historical based game, OF COURSE YOU NEED THOSE OPTIONS! History isn't rainbows and sunshine. But I digress, very good game and would totally recommend.
