Is it still worth playing?
Firaxis Games' 2016 4X turn based strategy game. It came out for Windows and Mac in October 2016, with other platforms later. You grow a civilization from a small tribe into a world power across several periods, from ancient times to the near future, by achieving one of several victory conditions, against computer opponents or other players. You found cities, grow them with mines, farms and other improvements, explore a randomly generated world and either trade and keep the peace or go to war. Each civilization has a unique ability, at least one unique unit and unique infrastructure such as a district, and each leader has a unique ability too. A random world and several ways to win still make each campaign take a different path, so one more game is easy to start.
