I was very impressed with this game and so glad that it was designed to be Windows Vista compatible. There are a few things that I liked better about Civilizations III better, for example you can battle just one country at a time. Overall Civilizations IV is much more entertaining to play with better graphics and more world leaders to choose from.
Beginner in a serious game

I bought Civ IV on recommendation from my son. He thought I would enjoy it as a time filler now that I am retired and have time to do these things! Well, time is not that free, but I do find the game a lot of fun. You can really get into it, but don't try to jump right in, like I did! I didn't even know how to begin till I went through the tutorial, it is a must for first timers. Then I spent 2 days on the first game, really intense!! LOL
Sid has done it again! Great Game!!

Wonderful, anyone who is a fan of this game will love this current version. It is as addicting as the others with even better graphics and interfaces. Be ready for hours of fun....with lots of coffee, ;-)

Great game with tons of replay value and endless components of strategy. You can never play the same game over again because of the randomness of the AI and how, with increasing difficulty, it seems as if they are ganging up against you, making it a wonderfully difficult experience.
Great game

Wow such a great turn based game. I am so happy with this game. You build your society and as you increase your level of sophistication you branch out and grow. You deal with it all economics,religion,military.You get to interact with other societies around you and can conquer them using brute strength or just being a better society they will come over. Man great game this guy is genuis. This is a really good buy

Don't like the graphics or movement of the various people, animals, etc. The tutorial is not the best. After numerous tries to understand the game I un-installed it and put it on the shelf.
Not as good as Civ 3

i loved playing civilization when i was a kid but omg all this time has passed and instead of using the technology they really moved back in time. the scenario in this game is so awfull that there is no way you can enjoy it. There are not a lot of improvements and the game is very stupid! definatly not worth the money. go buy age of empires, at least they have improved their games alittle

This game was new, in original box, and discounted from what I could find in the stores.
