Thanks guys! :) Getting some errors when I try to edit my first post (probably getting too big with too many links lol) so I can't update all the figures in there sorry, but anyway it's been another year and sadly there's still no Civ1/Civ2/ToT in digital stores. I can't go into more detail but last anniversary a little bird told me that some progress had been made with the licence holder 2K but that these things take time and nothing was certain. Well considering another year has gone by it looks like more work is needed to get the message through that the classic Civ fans want this fixed! So the work to raise awareness continues and I'm pleased to say over the last 2 years we've accumulated roughly 6,650 more votes than when we started this so thank you to everyone who's voted! :) I should also mention that GoG did some spring cleaning and merged a couple of the vote threads together so people voting on a couple of those links may find themselves redirected to another thread they've already voted in!

Any progress since 2024? I am so looking forward to playing again Civ2. That was my favorite game by far in the series.

The Games section of the Community wishlist is now archived (read-only), having been replaced by the Dreamlist. If you find the time, you might want to update your links (bearing in mind that some titles in the Dreamlist have multiple entries corresponding to different releases of the game -- similar to the old Community Wishlist's problem with duplicate entries).
Also, GOG did (semi-manually?) transfer votes from the old Games Wishlist to the Dreamlist, but only for titles which had a certain minimum vote total (which was definitely no lower than 1,000). Of course, since it's merely archived, not gone, one can still check the "final" totals in the old Wishlist for comparison, or out of curiosity.
Hey guys,

Yeah sorry I keep my CivFanatics thread on this updated but not this one as I was having troubles editing the Original Post. However I've removed all the old links out of there and that seems to have stopped the errors so I've finally been able to update the OP to all the latest stuff from my CivFanatics thread ie the Dreamlist links and the latest workarounds and tricks to get the games working even better.

Sadly no big news sorry guys. The GoG contact has gone silent so I presume their efforts with 2K have still gone nowhere. I spoke to some people at Atari who were sympathetic and confirmed that while they have colonization they do not have Civ1 & 2. I dunno how deeply they looked though. But it certainly seems like 2K are the ones who are sitting on this. So all we can do is keep voting and keep sharing the campaign around the socials!

Around the time they turned off the old voting system it was our 3 year anniversary so I did a final tally and we'd accumulated Roughly 8,600 more votes from when this all started which is great.

Most of them appear to be transferred over to the Dreamlist system which is good but as pointed out above plenty got lost due to being in smaller vote threads. I've put the Dreamlist links for Civ1 & Civ2 in the OP and I'll stick them below as well. However annoyingly Test of time was not transferred over and all attempts by myself and others to have it added to the Dreamlist have been ignored. Meanwhile GoG staff let other stupid stuff through as there's been all these other variants of Civ2 let in (gold, ultimate, the addon packs etc), and my personal favourite, multiple variants of Civ3 and Civ4 that are ALREADY ON GOG.. yet they will not approve our requests for Test of Time.. what the..

So if you guys have any ideas for setting up a Test of time dreamlist I'm all ears as the current application system is clearly not working.

NEW DREAMLIST VOTING LINKS:
Civilization 1 - https://www.gog.com/dreamlist/game/sid-meier-s-civilization
Civilization 2 - https://www.gog.com/dreamlist/game/sid-meier-s-civilization-ii
Civ 2 Test of Time - MISSING (We keep applying but GoG ignores us grr)

OLD VOTING LINKS:
Removed as they were too hard to update here. These have now been disabled and transferred over to the new Dreamlist system by GoG anyway. However you can still find them all in the expandable "Old Voting Links" section here:

I am not convinced the ownership of Civ 1 and 2 is quite as clear cut as several people here would have it. If it were, the games would have been on GOG and steam a long time ago,
My own gut feeling is they are in the same legal limbo as NOLF and several other games.

Speaking of Firaxis games, I would really like to see Sid Miere's Civil War here.
