I started civ when I got a free Civ Rev iphone app on the day of its release on iOS. Then proceeded to buy CiV and its expansions. Well played, Sid , you really hooked me.

 

[Autoclave]

I started with Civ 2. I still miss those advisors from it. I really liked how they changed their clothes depending on your era

 

[alex15]

Im surprised that many people who playing Civ5 never tryed Civ4

i mean Civ3 may have outdatet graphics and gameplay, but Civ4 last patch has came in 2009 and Civ4 graphics doesnt look old at all. People who playing Civ5 and never played Civ4 should try Civ4 imo even if Civ5 is their favorite, because Civ4 is good too but different

What about the original board game?

What about the original board game?

The original board game doesn't really have much of a relationship to the video game. Of course there was a board game based on the video game that was later released.

 

[Makavcio]

Damn. Can I change my vote somehow? Somehow I failed to tick Civilization I.

Edit:
I'm the only one who played FreeCiv? Well, skipping this game is not a loss.

What about the original board game?

Now that you ask: yes, actually I've played it once or twice. The one where you had to double your population markers each turn. Interesting game, although quite different to the video game...

Damn i "forgot" original Civ2 when was posting poll, horever Civ2 and Civ2 Test of Time is almost same game

Freeciv graphics and gameplay is okay (compare to Civ2 graphics), but interface is horrible

 

[Vikings Diehard]

What about the original board game?

Owned the board game as well as the computer game version of the board game.

 

[Altonity]

I have played only Civ V + expansions. I discovered Civ V like half year ago.

 

[Merciorum]

All from 1-5, with expansions, plus Freeciv, Freecol and both Cols. And Test of Time as well as Civ 2.

 

[player1 fanatic]

You've missing Civ2 (without test of time), and Civ1 for Windows, in the list.

There was also a scenario pack for Civ2, before Test of Time, but I would not consider it something worthy as separate entry in the poll.

Also, Sid Meyer's Alpha Centauri should have honorable mention.

P.S.
From this list, I've played everything, exempt Civ2:ToT (played base version of Civ2 a lot), those free knokoffs and whatever is C-evo...

 

[MKDELTA3]

Very tiny amount of Civ II and very substantial amounts of every other Civ game since then.

I played a lot of Call to Power I and II back in the day. Despite their blandness and the fast descent into utter craziness once you got past the modern era there were some cool things in them. Back when plastering every tile with roads was desirable I really missed the public works system from CtP. Now that in Civ 5 you don't have to do so much with workers I don't miss it that much.

I also played Alpha Centauri a lot. It just might be the game I've played the most. Ever.

 

[AW Arcaeca]

A few short games of vanilla CivIII, plenty of CivIV games in vanilla and BTS (plus a few C4W games), and many CivV games, all of which are G&K. Oh, and also some CivRev.

 

[Beaver79]

Civ 2 had some really cool scenarios. I t hink it was the Gold edition for the Playstation though.

One was you controlled dinosaurs instead of people. I don't think there were that many buildings to build, but you could build a bunch of different military units. You had an army of raptors and T Rexs and it was fun and different.

I always wished they had done a transformers scenario like that were you had to build 5 constructicons and then you could combine them into 1 devastator unit. As you teched up you could do the same but with the airial bots or Trypticon.

Road spam ruled too.

 

[Bad Wolf]

All of them basically except for 1, both Colonizations, CivNet, and everything below FreeCiv. I honestly don't remember if I had the Conquests expansion for Civ III, it was that long ago.

I liked all of the ones I've played, except for Revolutions. That one had some cool ideas, but it's just too streamlined and rushed.

 

[DemonMaster]

What about the original board game?

Advanced Civilization is the best boardgame ever created. I (we) have played it a lot and still does every now and then.
I even own the computer game, but don't think it will work on a 64-bit machine

 

[sendos]

I also voted other, and by that I mean alpha centauri. It's basically a future version of civ on a different planet starting from the year 2100.

I have played Civ V first, tried Civ IV and... it didn't appeal to me, nothing special nor "perfect" (as many people tend to say). Currently trying out Civ III and liking it, much more than Civ IV.
