It's a good game... I won't go into much detail, because I am assuming you have played previous Civ games before. That being, you will find the game fun and entertaining, to a point. There is very little in the way of diplomatic engagement between certain civilizations, and as you close in on a victory of any type, all beats are off and the civilizations begin to attack, trying to prevent your victory. I found this cheap... There should have been more detail in this game. I realize it was made for a different audience, but, that doesn't excuse the level of engagement between player and CPU.
Other than my above mentioned complaints, it's not a bad game, in fact in can be fun and engaging on some levels. I would recommend this for children or people who don't play strategy games often and want a bright colorful entry into the genre. Hardcore fans of Civ though, may not need apply.
