About this game

Build a civilization from a single settlement to a sprawling empire on a modular hex map. Explore unknown terrain, found cities, research 48 distinct advances along a branching tech tree, and build wonders of the world. Cities develop individually with four upgradeable sectors, making each one feel like a unique achievement. Combat is decisive but not dominant; cultural and economic development win games as often as military conquest. A civilization game that manages to be epic in scope while staying playable in an afternoon.
