The Game

This is a fun and time consuming game.
The key points of the game is to pick the civilization you want to be and play as that civilization till the game is over. After you start the game and have decided what country you want to be you have to make that country grow, in both military and city status. Each city that you produce you have the option to make military units, city improvements or settlers. The settlers are the ones that can make new cities. As time goes on in the game your scientists make new discoveries. Certain scientific discoveries will allow you to make more improved city improvements or military units. When you have a good economy, and a good military force, its time to take out the other countries.
There is a lot of controls for certain features in this game, so give yourself a few games to get the hang of it. When you first play it, play it in "Easy" mode. I have been playing for a long time and the difficult mode is still true to its name.
