    I am 43 and have played every Civ game. Even Colonization and pirates. I still remember losing a battleship vs. phalanx battle and being like wth? Ah the good ole days.

      My COLONIZATION kept crashing 😢
      perhaps because I was running it on a software emulator, and it reached some cap with allocated memory

      What about the predecessor, Civilization/Advanced Civilization by Avalon Hill? I believe this was the first to come up with concepts like a tech tree etc. It was also more balanced than the later games, but played more slowly both in the board game and PC version

    I'm not a history major but I have discovered a passion for learning about history of humanity because of the game Civilization, particularly its tech tree. Looking at it is inspiring - it shows the big picture of how we grew from primitive beings to so intellectually advanced (even if lots of it were motivated by war). I even purchased a copy of The MacMillan World History Factfinder (1985) which Sid used to create the first tech tree. It makes me happy.

      It pushed me into that direction as well, though I must admit I don't like what Civ 6 does about teaching history with basically intentional misleads... It's ironic that with better budget the quality of historical narration went down the drain as it's no longer of any real focus.

    Funny how the original Civilization (1980) by Tresham is not even mentioned. It is the reason why Civ1 is called Sid Meier's, for copyright reasons. MicroProse eventually bought it in 1997 after a legal dispute. And not only that. Tresham's 18xx series is the inspiration for the same Sid Meier's Railroad Tycoon. At least Tresham was added to the UK Games Expo Hall of Fame.

    I remember being in high school when the first Civilization game was released, and had started playing the game after dinner, past when my parents went to bed, just one more turn, and then next thing I knew there was sunlight coming in the window and I had stayed up all night playing the game.
    I may have done that a few other times over the decades.

      Civ III, at least the Conquests expansion, is still available on GoG and Steam. You don't need a working disc to play it these days fortunately! If you mean the versions where you can use Military Great Leaders to rush Great Wonders, that might be a different story though.

      @@frankiethefrank At least the final version with the add-ons are fine. If I remember correctly the basic game was also tough for me. especially the basic change of the board with just one unit per tile. but you get use to it. with add-ons I think it is good. And currently the add-ons should not be to expensive I think.
      I like how religion works more in V. Especially how it is foundet. The religious war starts can be a bit annoying but not as it is in 6. The annying think is that the missionaries wandering through your land and the AI do not always care that you say you dont want them.
      I would say give it try without blaming me if it still feels bad :D

    Was a teenager when I played this on PC, learned alot about the world, history, and how things progressed. Looking back, I loved how things were not as complex in Civ 1 - I was very much overwhelmed by Civ 6 and its various game mechanics when I first bought the game (since I never played Civ 3,4,5)... took a few tries to understand how things work (building districts, policy cards etc.)
