Since its arrival on the PC in the early 1990s, the reputation of Sid Meier and his successful Civilization series has presented our inner-megalomaniac with an outlet to build a great civilisation to stand the test of time. Civilization: Revolution is the latest progeny of the long-running series, serving up a dose of turn-based strategy. Revolution allows players to take control of a notable civilisation from the annals of history, giving players the opportunity to lead it from its humble beginnings through to conquering the globe with your own brand of world domination. Squeezing the strategic scope of a Civilization on to a wee Nintendo DS cartridge is a challenging feat, but developer Firaxis Games has done an commendable job at tweaking the series to suit the portable console.
Dorkly: "History is written by the winners, and that applies to games, too. While we hold up our post-apocalyptic wasteland adventures, period piece assassinations and Liberty City crime sprees on a pedestal, we would do well to remember the little guys. These underseen, criminally underplayed games didn't do well critically or commercially, but they were still wonderful experiences. Here's a small list of recommendations of unsung heroes of the PS3/Xbox 360/Wii era."
