Civilization IV Review - PCs

By Andrew Park, GameSpot.com (cnet.com.au)

Award: Editor's Choice!

If you have even a passing interest in strategy games, world history, or getting less sleep at night, you owe it to yourself to give Civilization IV a try.

Intriguing new gameplay options plus even more-refined core gameplay, Great presentation with powerful new 3d engine and great new soundtrack, Much easier to fit into your schedule, but also offers many more strategic options, Voice work by Leonard...

Endgames can sometimes still bog down, even though games are much faster to finish overall, Faster pace seems to de-emphasise historical context somewhat, Warning: the highly addictive gameplay will make you lose sleep

Civilization IV Review

By William Abner (gameshark.com)

Civilization IV is one of the best strategy games ever made, and it proves that turn-based gaming isn't quite dead yet.

Civilization IV proves that not only is turn-based strategy gaming not dead, but when it's done right, it provides the type of rewarding, evenly paced gameplay that made the genre so popular back in the days when games like Master of Magic and the...

This really is strategy gaming at its very best and you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you skipped it. It's that good. - William Abner

Civilization IV

By Tyler Sager (gamingnexus.com)

The Civilization series is arguably the best empire-building franchise ever to grace the PC. So when a new sequel comes along, there are some very high expectations to meet. Civilization IV meets each and every one of those expectations, giving us...

An incredibly fun and addictive addition to the Civilization franchise. Civilization IV brings back everything that makes this series great, and adds enough innovation to keep things fresh and approachable for both veteran and newcomer. Easily one of...

Civilization veterans should find a lot of familiar ground in Civilization IV, but there is enough new and innovative content to keep everyone happy. As in previous Civilization incarnations, players get to choose from one of 18 available Civilizations.

Civilization IV Review

By Steven Wong (gamedaily.com)

Civilization IV is just as awesome and epic as it's name implies.

For the first time, religion is being introduced to the Civilization franchise. There are several different religions to choose from, but they all do the same thing: Generate morale and culture. Having a Holy City will generate significant culture...

Constructing missionaries to spread religion to other cities will make acquiring them easier. Cities will always be happier and produce more culture when their religion matches the state's religion.

Civilization IV - Game Review (PC)

By (armchairgeneral.com)

It's hard to think of a gaming franchise that carries with it the prestige and power of the name Civilization. I suppose more specifically, Sid Meier's Civilization. Maybe there are some franchises out there with more clout and influence, but I doubt...

There were fantastic promises made with Civilization IV, enough that some gamers probably contacted their lawyers ahead of time and asked for the divorce papers to be drawn up - requesting only that they be left with the family's computer. So how does...
