![]() ![]() If you believe in laissez-faire gameplay, where you give the direction and everything else falls into place flawlessly and without manual input, then there are plenty of options accommodating your attitude, such as automating your workers or planning your science eons before you’ll reach the era. The gameplay of Civ V is expansive to say the least however, it does adapt to your playing style. Even still, the scenario selection isn’t the only effective way to switch up Civilization V’sgameplay.Įvery building you create in Civ V appears onscreen. This allows for the game to seem unpredictable (which it often is), keeping the player’s interest for many hours at a time. For example, the Confederates could squash the Union front or the Native American tribes could combine their power to resist the attack from the seas. All of the scenarios are based off of a historical event however, the outcome isn’t always constant. The game mode selection, also known as the scenario selection, is simply brilliant – two notable examples are the American Civil War, where you can be either Lincoln’s forces or the Confederates, and the race for the new world, where you can choose to invade or defend the Americas as either Spain or the Incas. For a full understanding of the characters and their roles, you must experience Civ V for yourself.Īdding to Civilization V’s long list of ways to play is the game mode and world selection. By selecting Bismarck of Germany, your rapid production and brute military force can cause you to rise to triumph in a deadly war while selecting Brazil’s Pedro II can allow you to glide to glory through countless cultural revolutions. These are, of course, a very limited representation of the character selection and its effect on gameplay. Instead, it creates an entirely new way to play. But choosing a character does not minutely affect your “speed” or “weight” as it does in Mario Kart. This sets the platform for a highly addictive game, much in the same way that Mario Kart DS‘s large selection of characters forms the basis of that game’s cocaine-like properties. If I were to list every single character with the description that is offered in the game, then I’d still be here writing this review – as in, right now, as you’re processing these words that I have typed and posted onto Nerd Bacon. ![]() Those components are the vast bank of playable characters, the world/game mode selection, and the overall gameplay. Even still, like most games, this game can be broken down into a few key components. The addictive nature of this game comes mainly from the sheer amount of game modes and options offered as well as the flawless hot seat multiplayer. And even the gigantic number of hours that I logged on Civilization Revolution appears miniscule in comparison to the nearly 50 hours I’ve logged on Civilization V (or Civ V) in the 3 or 4 months that I’ve owned the game. My prior experiences with Sid Meier games are fairly limited in comparison to the long list of classics by Meier however, I did play the Xbox 360 edition of Civilization Revolution, a game that I had logged countless hours on despite the fact that there was really only one game mode. This is from my playthrough as England, close to victory.
