I have played this for many years and still find myself coming back to it time after time. It's simply awesome. Civilization 2 is a turn based strategy game. You start with 2 units that can modify the terrain or build a city. After building a city you need to build granaries, temples, Markets etc while also building military units to defend your city and explore the rest of the world. Building a city allows you to research various things, providing better units, facilities and Wonders of the World. Can you defeat the rest, conquer their cities or win the race to space? Your choice.. or maybe someone else decides your choices. Either way, it will be a challenge. To make matters more difficult, the rest of the world isn't waiting for you to send flowers. It has the same agenda, so it's units are out there trying to build a civilization as well. Sorry to say but you're probably in their way. Diplomacy, aggression, bribery.. you decide. There are many ways to play the game. It really does depend on the lie of the land and who you are dealing with. Some just won't take "No" for an answer. Attack or defend? Form an alliance? If you toss a coin you'll probably get beaten. Learn how to "play the game" and you have a fair chance. The map is always different, the game is always different but always fun, challenging and absorbing. In my opinion it is by far the best of the Civilization series and probably one of the best games of all time. If you like turn based strategy this is the game for you.Read full review
