I've logged more hours playing this game than any other.

by grimjack2 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 21 '01
Pros: Still fun after hundreds of hours. Challenges the mind, not the reflexes. Endless replay value.
Cons: 'Just one more turn' feeling will rob you of all your free time.
The author of this game is Sid Meier, who is to video games what Steven Spielberg & Orson Wells rolled together are to film. I cannot imagine what sort of mental overload I would have had if I had not played the first Civilization before this sequel....

It Lives Up To The Original That Says A Lot

by Abraxmed , Nov 19 '00
Pros: Best Game of its Type
Cons: A little old
Where to start this game is just so wonderful. There are very few games that all the annoying parts you can turn off and they aren't annoying anymore. This is one of them. This has to be the most solid, greatest game of all time. The only game the ...

Pure gold

by betelguese , Nov 09 '00
Pros: Scenarios, ease of play
Cons: Multiplayer is over several computers, not the same one
I've been a Civilization player for a long time. I first got hooked on the Macintosh version a friend of mine had graciously allowed me to play. When I finally managed to buy a computer of my own, Civilization was first on my wish list.

THE definitive strategy game

by majorowl , Dec 06 '00
Pros: replay value, gameplay
Cons: aging graphics and sound; so-so AI
I'm not even sure where to begin. This is perhaps the most engaging game I've ever played. It may not be perfect (what game is?), but it's sooooooo good!

This is a game for fans of strategy-gaming and perhaps for history buffs, as you...

Hours of Fun

by meman , Nov 23 '03
Pros: Extremely fun, possibly the best
Cons: Days spent at your computer, trying to crush the Aztecs.
Civilization 2: Multiplayer Gold Edition. One of, if not, the best strategy games for PC. What gives this game it's spark? The endless amount of gameplay. Play normally, play a scenario, play multiplayer, customize play, and MAKING your own scenario all ...

When the original Civilization came out I remember spending months playing the game, hours every day, it was addictive, one of the most addictive games that I had ever played. I did not think that it would be possible for any game to come even close, but...
