Civilization IV

Kinggames · 08-18-2006

This is one of the best strategy games I've ever played. You start out with a settler, and you build a city, and make it grow and make people. Eventually, as you explore the land more and more, you can interact with other civilizations, and trade with them, and be nice, or destroy them. The best feature of this game is, it's online! Post here if you have the game, it'd be cool if we can get like 10+ people in a game.

EDIT: Ugh... wrong section. If a moderator could move this topic into the Computer Gaming section, that'd be great...

This game is fantabulous! I'm spanking Kinggames really hard right now in the game that we're playing (you can save games that you play online and resume them later).

I've played the Civilization series since the beginning but I havent played the 4th one yet. From what I've seen it looks like it might revive it. Civilization II was the best one so far but the third was pretty bad because it made some changes to the gameplay. If you like the 4th one you should try and get the second one. Although you can't go online with it it is still one of my favorite PC games ever.

Is online basically a set deathmatch where everyone kills eachother, a 2v2 type of thing, or is it just explore and do whatever you want? Cause that would be cool if you could just have 10 people exploring and trading and then team up to destroy everyone.

You can set teams and have up to sixteen people if you want. You can also have AI players among those 16. I think that you can turn wars off, but I haven't tried.

WOW 16 that's a big number. Is it hectic?

No, because you can have astronomically huge maps. I like smaller maps with just a handful of nations so that it's easier to move around the whole world.
