Must have game!

Didn't even realize GoG had added Civ 4 until I just saw the bundle in the Holiday Sale......wow.....I used to think Civ II was the game of all time, until Civ IV came along. I still play it to this day! And, after over a decade, that's saying something. If you have not played Civ IV, do not hesitate any longer! The one thing I'd recommend is getting the Buffy mod at CivFantics.com. It is a huge improvement to the interface, and you will not want to play the vanilla game again, once you play with this mod. Now if GoG adds the Diablo games, they would have the two most replayable game series' ever. Civilization and Diablo games have caused me to have a humongous backlog of other computer and video games! I still cannot stop playing them, to this day, 15 to 20 years after they were created!

Best Civ

My most favourite Civ! I still play it, particularly with one of the billion of mods out there. The gameplay flow, the different game mechanics and how they interact with each other is just really addictive and interesting; these mechanics become particularly interesting with mods who go in different directions and often deeper than the base game. The graphics aged definitely, but since when was Civ about graphics?

Leonard Nimoy! And what a soundtrack!

Plenty of reviews talk about what's really great here, but I just wanna add that EACH technology (among other things) is narrated by Leonard Nimoy (Mr Spock), and it has a fantastic soundtrack. That is all, good luck in Civ IV :)

The Best Civilization Ever Because of the Mods

The best Civilization version ever, because of the mods. If you are into fantasy the entire Fall From Heaven series, inspired by Master of Magic, is the best turn based fantasy strategy in the history of computer gaming—in my ever-so-humble opinion. The best of that series is Ashes of Erebus. Even though AoE isn't finished, and still has some issues, it's depth of game play and variety is unparalleled. What sets the Fall from Heaven series apart is the depth of game play and the quality of the user generated art. Civilization IV seemed to hit that sweet spot where the game was beautiful, but the art wasn't so complex that it was inaccessible to modders. I think for a lot of newer games, where they aren't trying to nickle and dime you to death, the artwork is so complex to produce that it is far less accessible to hobbyists and casual modders. Having said that, there is nothing casual about the quality of many of the mods available for this version of Civilization.cc

Best time waster I know

This game is the best way to waste your time. I mean that in a good way. I spent days and weeks and months with this game. It's beautifullly thought out, highly challenging, educative in parts and a lot of fun. It's also relaxing and despite it's flaws the best strategy game I ever came across. The expansion packs add some more fun, especially in the later parts of the game and some more variety in the earlier parts: They integrate corporate structures in your empire or state, emphasize religion and culture a bit more and add new leaders and civilizations to play. Despite all this praise, years of playing this gem allow for some critique. There are some rather annoying flaws in the game. First of all, balance is an issue. You can tweak your random szenarios a bit to make the game more fair. But some civilizations still tend to be more powerful that others. And all will fail when confronted with a bad starting location or bad luck with random events. These - like everything else in the game that's based on chance - tend to affect the game greatly in the beginning and to become mere trifles towards the end. Also, the game becomes almost impossible to win on higher difficulty levels. While it will still be fun to play, you will end up on the loosing end more often than not. Also, combat can become weird with units stacked on top of each other. Often, you will do fine until one of your friends decides to wipe you out with the majority of his units stacked into one army. That will also be your best chance of winning, making other strategies obsolete at times. Other flaws are in the science tree and in diplomacy: The science tree is ludicrous if you look at it closely. Diplomacy is very underdeveloped, with threats or advances for help from rivaling civilizations becoming repetative and annoying. Nonetheless, the game was better than anything on the market when it came out and still shines today. With the following titles of the series not adding much to the concept, it is probably the best title in the whole series - and one that still runs smoothly on older machines.
