Flawed, but fun...
Colonization was a fun deviation from the Civilization series - the game was more focused on settlement, trade, exploration. Less on pure military expansion and combat. The game mechanics have many flaws - the combat system was rather broken especially with Naval combat. The diplomacy with European powers was flawed, but the one with Indians was really well made. The trading options is what made the game really interesting. The main problem with the game was how it ends - there's only one way of winning it and that is through military might. A darn shame. There are other flaws - some facts in Colonipedia are wrong, dragons weren't that widely used in the new world, galeons were war ships etc. etc. and... the game tends to be very silent about the issues of slavery and either tries to use 'more PC terms' when describing them (Indian converts, Servants) or tends to plain not include it (Black slavery). But Colonization deserves its 5 stars - because it was an interesting trip and the original (there was a remake on Civ4 engine which was very bad) is still unmatched today.
