Alpha Centauri and the other Civ games were better. This one seems like a Civ 3.5 . It's not all it's cracked up to be. It's fun but after a while it gets repetetive. Alpha Centauri is Sid's masterpiece. It's addictive and way more fun. In Alpha Centauri you get factions breaking alliances and attacking you together. I was able to win the game without one miltary unit. It's a bit updated but all the civs are the same. The other world leaders just say the same thing over and over again. Religion isn't that great. Great People don't do anything and it's dull. Get Civ 3 or Alpha Centauri, it's cheaper and more fun.
