Quite the relaxing game, graphics aren't wonderful on the DS compared to the other consoles or PC versions of them but actually do compare quite favorably to the PC Civ 1/2 games. Quite good all in all. The extra 'cut' scenes of the fights are amusing but are usually skipped and fortunately can be skipped. All in all it's a good game for Civ lovers. For me though I find that all in all the game itself reminds me more of Civ 2 than 1, not a good thing in some ways good in others. The graphics are better then 1, there is more subtlety of the barbarian hordes. But the random stuff just isn't that good to keep things different.
There's more planning here in some ways but it's a Civ game so I was expecting to need to plan a bit more. The different eras bonuses are a new twist but hardly unbalancing.
I enjoy it but it's not the PC version.
