I rather liked the game, but recently tried playing it again and couldn't get into it. The Mac version looked and felt better IMHO.

Civ 1 was class. Civ 2 was the best. Civ 3 and 4 were over-elaborate, poor imitations of the second one.

I've got it and spend the last two weeks to clonise the American continent once again and again...
No time to visite our forum anymore.
My first impressions are good. Although i usually don't play computergames, cause my free time is very limited, i think back to the early 1990s, as i played the first version of this match.
Many things are similar, better graphics and contoling.
But it's very hard to hit the mark, the revolution in 1792, even at the easiest level.
For all friends of games of strategy: to be recommended
