Civilization 2 – A Gaming Classic by Jacob Malewitz The best strategy game ever Civilization is a computer game that deserves to be respected. This article tells you the basics to the biggest sequel to any game ever created. Want to control the world? Want to be able to dictate traffic? Want Sim City but with constant war? Do you want to be treated to your own royal court? Or, do you want peace in all lands? Civilization 2 is the game for you if any of this applies to you. Take an empire from the stone age to the time of space travel. Experience world wars, discrete alliances, and control all the facets that makes civilization itself such a interesting part of world history. What makes Civilization 2 work so much better than the games made after it are the small details. You can control everything, but, unless you’re playing in the later stages of the game, you are never overwhelmed with all the intricacies of making an empire work.
