Civ IV is another great Civ game from the mind of one of greatest game designers of all time. Civ IV presents the Civilization game with such polish and solid gameplay that it will be very interesting to see where Sid Meier's takes the franchise from here.
The graphics aren't the greatest but that's not why you play a Civ game. The mechanics are where this game truly shines. You can conquer by force or by diplomacy and you can be hands-off or you can micro-manage almost every aspect of your cities and territories. The choice is yours.
The scenarios and maps will provide hours upon hours of strategy fun and you will find yourself saying "just one more turn" at 3 a.m. before you know it.
If you like strategy games and you do not own Civ IV, you are doing yourself a disservice. Pick up the game and conquer the world.

Been playing Civ since the first edition back in the mid 90s when I bought my first puter. Love this game and Civ IV just proves that it's one of the best games ever! Sooner or later, I'll order Civ V, just haven't done it yet. Still having too much fun with IV and it's expansion.

I bought this as a birthday gift for a friend's teenage boy. He couldn't quit playing it. He says its the best one yet.

I bought the Gold edition and the Beyond the Sword expansion pack and overall I think this game is excellent when you are playing it. I really have to say it is addictive and as long as you are happy with the game right out of the box and assuming you are not the type of person to read the manual anyway you will love it.
Unfortunately it had a few shortcomings:
- documentation claimed that the full manual was on disc 3 (Gold) but at least on mine it wasn't there. I emailed support and they told me to go download it off some third party site. When I responded politely that they must be joking and they must have a pdf version of the full manual somewhere they sent me a link to a pdf of the full manual...who knows why they told me to go hunt one down myself the first time.
- when you go to download an update there is no progress bar so you sit there and wonder if it's almost done, how much longer, etc. The only way you know the update is still running is when you ... Read More
