ComputerGames writes: "This game got in my lap because I played all the Civ games along the years, but mostly because everybody ran for the hills from it. Yet hundreds of strategy turns later, boring at first, full in the middle and very satisfying in the end, I can give the all clear for those who ran out the back door. Civilization V is one of the friendliest games in the series and gives exactly what both veterans and beginners need."
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.
