About this product

Product Information

Gamers employ new technology boosts and watch as their cities expand across the map in Sid Meier's Civilization VI. The turn-based strategy series finds players using a mix of technological research, cultural advancement, diplomacy, and military might to grow a small settlement into a mighty empire. The biggest changes in Civ VI involve the management of cities, with buildings expanding into new districts in adjacent tiles. Districts become available at certain population milestones, and they open new terrain-based development opportunities, while also posing new strategic challenges.<br><br>Players who pursue military victories can now embed support units within other divisions, and similar units can be placed together to form powerful Corps units. A new active research system lets gamers unlock technology boosts in pursuit of science victories, while a new civics tech tree has been added to make cultural victories more attainable. Single-player action finds gamers interacting with famous historical leaders like Gilgamesh and Peter the Great, with each leader having a hidden agenda that gamers must discover, while multiplayer fans can join friends for a variety of cooperative and competitive scenarios.

    Not as good as Civ 4 but it does have great graphics

    as I said in the header it isn't quite civ 4 (Nothing will ever meet my expectations from that game, though) but it does have all the prerequisites for a civilization game featuring as such multiple nations and even multiple leaders per nation which you can go to war or be in peace with large maps technology branches diplomacy spies (a feature which was sold as DLC in the civ 5) and much more, so while this game isn't exactly the next Civilization IV it is still solid in its current state.

    A once great game falls like the Roman Empire

    I think I've finally had it with the Civilization series. I haven't enjoyed one of the games since Civ 3 (which I loved). Ever since they took away the ability to stack troops, the gameplay has become very slow. Civ 6 is tedious to play, and I found myself not enjoying it the slightest bit. Here are the issues I see: 1) Still no stacking of troops means units take a very long route to someplace to avoid your own troops! This has been going on since Civ 4. 2) Too many barbarians to start. I want the barbarians, but not to be overwhelmed by them, and certainly not for them to have advanced technology I don't have. 3) The opposing player AI is still lousy. From the start it's been lousy. You almost never know why someone dislikes you or denounces you. Others can declare war without provocation and be forgiven very easily. If I attack someone who declared war on me or surprise attacked me several times then somehow I am considered a warmonger. The warmongering thing needs to be forgotten over time, just like in real life. 4) The pace of building units is painfully slow, and the pace of research is too fast. I would say building needs to be two to three times faster and research needs to be 1/2 to 1/3 the speed. It shouldn't be the case that I discover 15 technologies before I can build 10 units. That's what happens. 5) Roads take forever to build. You can't automate works to build roads and you have to trade with every city to get a road. Late in the game you're still short on roads. 6) The graphics are a huge step backwards. There is an old style hand-drawn map that overlays areas you've seen but don't have any units it. It is super hard to read that map even though you've been there, and it stays that way throughout the game! Trees and terrain look cheap. Everything except the wonders look cheap, and too much time was spent on showing wonders being built instead of making units and terrain look good. I'm saying goodbye to the Civilization franchise. I wanted so much for the games after Civ 3 to be even better, but they got worse. I wanted to waste my time on these games, but instead I wasted my money. They had three chances to make it good and they failed on all three of them. Sorry Sid, I'm out.

  • 4 complete playthroughs with one crash.

    I have really enjoyed this game. Every CIV is better than the one before it. I didn't like the artillery change (less distance). The graphics are really cute. I like the new city builds. One thing I don't like is the ability of barbarians to destroy things that take a long time to fix(Districts, harbors, aqueducts, etc.). Perhaps it would be OK if the fixes could be done by builders as done for farms, etc. but with more turns. This way a complete set of 3 builders could repair a district, district building, harbor, etc. Another problem is that all barbarian attacks are not brought to your attention. If you fail to look around the map, barbarians can be tearing up districts, etc. before you know it. In civ V, you knew when barbarians were at your cities. In civ VI you have to search around to make sure you aren't getting your lunch eaten. Other than those few things, and overall, I like the game.

  • I love the game, have had all versions

    It is not working on my laptop. I can't get it to download and operate. I love the game, but I feel like the process of downloading and using it is not functioning. I have 8 GB ram, 500 GB HDD, I have a Core i7 processor, and am running windows 11. Not sure why I am having the problem.

  • Fun

    I've played this game and variation of it for years with complete satisfaction. I can just go on and on about how it is both educational as well as an entertaining pastime. Once again well done and ooking forward to next year's new upgraded game(s).

  • Stream screws up a great game

    I love the game alone. Once Steam got involved it really su KS. I bought it years ago and quit playing it. I wanted to play again and boy do I regret buying it. Stream is a ram hog and really slows the game down

  • An excellent upgrade from its predecessors

    Civ 6 has a very compelling city building feature by moving many of the buildings out of the main city hex with the introduction of the districts. Cities feel more varied; wonder stacking and mass building purchasing done away with. There is a compelling choice to be made now between how far apart to spread you cities. Clustering can lead to overlapping city bonuses, whereas as spreading out gives more tile improvements per city to work. Overall, loving the experience so far.

  • Not what I expected.

    I've been playing the Civ franchise for years. This is by far the worst of the series. Graphics are just OK. Game play is boring with too many options. I don't find it as enjoyable as Civ4 or Civ 5. Just my opinion.

  • Worst version of Civilization to date!

    Horrible graphics. Very immature and cartoonish. Game play was laborious. Worst Civ game yet. Except for a few tweaks here and there, the entire series has gone downhill since Civ III.

  • AMD Issues

    The game is great and the code works, but don't expect to be able to install it right away. AMD requires a 24 registration, unless you provide a real phone number, and then I had to contact their customer services to activate the code.
