Good enough

User Rating: 7 | Sid Meier's Civilization V PC
Well I must admit I haven't played Civilization since the third installment. Turn based just wasn't for me, but with all the buzz and anticipation this one was creating I was looking forward to it, and unfortunately was left disappointed.

I am an Age of Empires fan, however the turn base wasn't the problem this time, it was the depth. Granted the science research and building wonders is a long list, but thats exactly what it felt like, a long list.

Credit to the unbelievable smooth running of the game! great graphics and even fun sounds. However, I would've liked to have seen more human units on the map (workers, warriors, scouts..) and I would've wanted to have seen a bigger fuss about my pyramids when they were done!

Good game, definitely worth a try. I would suggest to play the very good demo free on steam before you commit your cash
