IB writes, "Strategy fanatics have the date marked on their calendar for many years. The day Firaxis releases its eagerly anticipated fifth instalment in the Civilization series. Like previous Civilization games, you begin by selecting the leader of a people, creating a city, and expanding it and your empire in a multitude of ways. Though unlike previous Civilization games, there are many differences here, making the gameplay unique."
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.
