5★This game is great! Pricing is perfectly reasonable and one time. Only notes I would have is that I would love to have an allied victory option in online games. I enjoy team games with friends and we don't want to have to turn on each other at the end. Also an 8 to 10hr turn limit game would be a nice option, something between 24hrs and 30 seconds. Also Cymanti is not quite balanced. All in all still 5 stars. Definitely one of the best games on the app store. I recommend it all the time.

5★you will literally never find another mobile game like this one, ive tried.. it's such a good game with fun mechanics, the only thing is after you play a game or 2 you run out of motivation to play more unless you have friend willing to pay only 99cents, but some ppl won't do that, but other than that it's amazing, I have played it on and off over the years and it's very entertaining for a cool minute especially if you space your turns, I'd say it's worth at least trying if you enjoy strategy.

5★I've been playing this game for the better part of a decade apparently. Its become my go to when I need to time warp through life, especially on planes and trains. Perfect mobile, 1 hour game package of the classic Civ "1 more turn". Plenty of variety and challenge. Note to devs: I've always wanted to be able to select "random" for biome when playing a custom game. I can randomize everything else.

5★Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Good skill tree system, interesting civilizations, good randomly generated worlds, and solid multiplayer. There are only two things that I dislike; having to purchase something to unlock multiplayer, and somewhat repetitive gameplay. However, despite these minor downsides, this game has a certain charm to it that makes it stand out from other strategy games, and I'm always searching for that bit of uniqueness in games. Keep up the good work!

5★Honestly pretty interesting game. Fun! And you just play against AI. You can completely ignore the multiplayer. Completely free to play, you pay for different tribes that start with different skills but it's completely optional. I ended up buying a few cause I liked the game, wanted to support it. The special tribes add more randomness to the game, keeping it fresh, but can be disabled if you want to play classic!
