Half a world away, the Pharaohs' tombs lie empty. In Italy, the Roman Colosseum decays. Everywhere, you see remnants of societies that thought they would endure forever. All are dust. But yours could be different. You could be the one person in history who builds an empire that never falls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThat's the challenge of \u003cstrong\u003eCivilization\u003c\/strong\u003e, the most enthralling \"god game\" yet developed. From the creator of Railroad Tycoon —the SPA's 1990 Strategy Game of the Year — \u003cstrong\u003eCivilization\u003c\/strong\u003e lets you match wits with history's greatest leaders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eYou start at the dawn of recorded history—4000 B.C. and the founding of the first cities—then nurture your society toward the Space Age. In the beginning, you'll labor to simply survive while building your settlements, discovering new technologies and fending off barbarians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eAs your empire prospers, you'll face competing civilizations guided by history's most legendary figures: Alexander the Great, Napoleon, Gengis Khan, Julius Caesar and more. Now you'll test your capacity for expansion and domination, your ability to outwit and outmaneuver those cunning and brilliant leaders. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eJust look how \u003cstrong\u003eCivilization\u003c\/strong\u003e lets you build a brave new world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover New Technologies.\u003c\/strong\u003e You dictate how your civilization grows by controlling the technologies it discovers — mastery of one technology provides the opportunity to learn new ones. Over 70 of mankind's greatest technical achievements are available, including The Wheel, The Alphabet, Mapmaking, Navigation and even Nuclear Weapons.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuild Wonders Of The World.\u003c\/strong\u003e Earn the respect of your people—and the envy of the world—as you construct the Pyramids, the Great Wall and other wonders of antiquity, the Middle Ages or the modern era. Each Wonder you build brings special benefits to your society.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetermine The Fate Of Your People.\u003c\/strong\u003e Every crucial economic, political and military decision is yours—and yours alone. From population growth to industrial policy, scientific development to military power, the destiny of your civilization is in your hands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChoose From Flexible Starting Options.\u003c\/strong\u003e So players of all levels can have fun and be challenged, you select from five difficulty settings, while playing on Earth or on a new planet generated for each game.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnjoy The Easy To Use Interface.\u003c\/strong\u003e The point-and-click, icon-based interface makes it easy to gather information, make decisions. Virtually any game-related question or concern is addressed in the on-line \"civilopedia.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eWill archaeologists yet unborn puzzle over the decline and fall of the culture you build? Or will your culture be the one that finally achieves earthly immortality?\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eYou'll find the answer only in \u003cstrong\u003eCivilization.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCivilization has the widest scope of any strategy game of its time. You are a leader of a nation. You begin in the Stone Age, and complete the game in the XXIth century (unless your civilization gets destroyed earlier). Your eventual goal is to become the dominant civilization in the world, either by wiping out everybody else, or being the first to get a space ship to Alpha Centauri.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eAs the nation's leader, you have many responsibilities. You have to build cities, and then micromanage them, constructing various buildings. Most of the people in your cities will be working on the neighbouring lands to get food (without it, your city won't survive or grow), production (used to build military units and buildings) and trade (which can be exchanged for money, science (see below) or luxuries that make people happy. You decide how much trade you want to invest into each of these areas.) You have to make sure that your people are in a good mood; if they get too unhappy, the city will collapse into disorder, and won't produce anything until you fix the situation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eIf you're ambitious, you can build Wonders of the World - epic constructions, such as the Pyramids or the Hoover Dam. Each Wonder is a unique thing, and only one of each can exist in the world. They give you a lot of benefits if you complete them, but they take a long time to build, and many of them will eventually stop working. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThere are other nations in the world, and there are also barbarians, so you'll have to invest into the military to protect yourself and to attack. Sure, you can sign peace treaties with other nations, and even exchange scientific knowledge with them (although sometimes they'll demand tribute from you), but eventually you'll probably have to fight. You control each of your military units on the world map, attacking your opponents' units and cities (possibly taking over them). \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eNot all units are for combat though. Settlers are used to build cities, create roads (for easier travel of your units) and improve the land around cities, increasing production. Diplomats can be sent to foreign cities to negotiate with the other nations or create embassies, but they can also bribe enemy units to join you and conduct espionage and sabotage in the enemies' cities. Caravans can be sent to faraway cities to increase trade in their home city, and they can also help in building Wonders of the World. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eScientific progress is an important part of the game. The more science your cities produce, the faster you research new technologies. Initially, you'll be finding out about the wonders of Alphabet or Bronze Working, but late in the game you'll be researching Computers and Robotics. Most technologies give you some new units, buildings and other things, although some have more interesting effects - for example, after inventing the Automobile, you'll find out that your citizens started producing pollution. Pollution is a bad thing; if there's too much of it, global warming may occur. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eHow your cities prosper depends partially on the type of government that your nation has. Initially you're living in Despotism, but this can stunt growth of your civilization, so it's a good idea to switch to something else - Monarchy, Republic, Democracy or Communism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*** Data by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca
