From Strategyinformer.com: "Civilization V has long been a leading name in strategy games, especially turn based. Deep, complex, addictive, this franchise has been at the fore-front of the genre for the past twenty years. Now the fifth iteration, is nearly upon us and with it will come some major changes to an area that doesn't traditionally take change well.
Strategy Informer sat down with game designer Jon Shafer and talked to him about all things Civ in the run up to V-day."

Civilization V continues to be one of the most popular grand-strategy games you can play on Steam, for about three years.

Philip Boyes:
When I was a kid, I played a lot of Civilization 2. I played a lot of strategy games in general, but having a deep love of both history and sci-fi, the epic sweep of Civ 2 from prehistory to the stars held a particular appeal. I loved taking my little people from their huts and ziggurats to the world of science and advanced space-flight.
