Good (sort of) graphics, fun concept I embarrisingly enough am just now trying to upgrade from my civ: I (the original game) Nobody liked the newer versions, but this one is awsome! (atleast compared to the original) Best of all for me, tis for mac. If you want a good, solid, empire-building game for mac, this one is a great choice

Great!

It's good. Especially the multiplayer part. My friends and I help each other fight opponents while researching and building an army. After we're all powerful we fight each other. It's a great game!

this game has moderetly good graphics, but its exxelent gameplay makes up for that. it provides days of fun. the diplomacy options are amzing. The combat is plain and unorigianl, but it has a ton of Wonders that allow tons of advancements. This is my favorite game.

While playing the utterly confusing at first game of civilization, I became slightly atrracted to it and noticing tiny flaws and betterings from the original version. Fr instance, they have created many new units and changed faces of land, added new civs etc. I found the game well worth the buy and the cheat menu extraordinary. I hope you enjoy this product as much as I. -CJK

Awsome

Ever since the game was made, I have been addicted to it. Last year I played it for at least three hours every week night. And every weekend, I would play for the whole day. I know everything that there is to know about this game. If you have time, BUY THIS GAME! But, if you don't, you shouldn't buy it because you WILL become addicted.

As a HUGE fan of Civ II (I've spent more time with that game than I spent in High School), I was pretty excited when this came out. Sure, it looked different, but it had lots of really cool additions. Now, a week has passed, and I must say that this game kinda sucks. It lacks the primary component that Civ II has. PLAYABILITY. It's so freaking slow as far as game play goes, and the battle scences are simply horrid. Civ was like a nice little chess game on the nth scale. This is Might & Magic with four billion rules. There's a difference. Wait for Alpha Centauri. Sid Meyer actually had a part in that.

INCREDIBLE

Well, Civ 2 was just great! It was a great game. When Civ 2 Gold came out, I thought, "Great. Another upgrade." I thought it wouldn't be worth the money. I changed my mind real quick when I played it! It has all the great things from the oiginal Civ 2, and TONS more. Most noticable change: MULTIPLAYER! Great multiplayer mode, where you can play your own map, a scenario, or a regular game. There is even a "hot-seat" option for two or more human players! However, in my opinion, the best thing about this game is the incredible amount of scenarios. It comes with two scenario packages: Fantastic Worlds and Conflicts in Civilization. Fantastic worlds is great fun! It has 15 scenarios, with things like being able to play dinosaurs! Conflicts is great too, with battles like Desert Storm to act out with your friends or by yourself. Just like Civ 2 regular, it comes with a map editor to make your own worlds. However, in Civ 2 Gold, you can also make your own SCENARIOS. It is used like the still-present cheat mode, allowing you to edit units, towns, science, turns, everything! Put this together with cheat mode, and you can make your own scenario masterpieces! As for the gameplay, its great! the controls for multiplayer negotiating are perfect! This game is very challenging, for the newbies and the unexperienced. It features alliances, scientific progress, strategic military warfare, negotiating, building cities, trading, keeping track of supply and demand, and building wonders of the world! It also comes with a large fold- out poster of Advances and Unit stats! The well-written 275-page manual should leave all your questions answered, as it even gives you scenario descriptions. My conclusion: buy this game. Great game, two scenario packages, a map editor scenario editor, and MULTIPLAYER gaming up to 7 people. Get this game, it's one of the best games ever!
