Summary

I was disappointed in this one.

The Good

Built on the excellent Civ franchise. Had an interesting diplomacy model.

The Bad

I hated the look of this game. It was too dark, and brooding. Dark and brooding made sense in Dark Reign, but this just didn't go over for me in this game. I wasn't to fond of the technology either. It didn't have the flair of the tech from Civ or Master of Orion. It was the only Sid Meier's game that I didn't like.

The Bottom Line

Get the updated version of Civ II instead.
