Just move the beginning of the game much closer to the end, call it Instaciv 
Do I take it "Pocket"Civ is designed to be played on a smartphone then ?

Pocket civ? :S
Anyway, a Civ game could have an actual civil war mechanic. There was a civil war in CivII, but it was too basic, and your country randomly split to others depending only on civ color (
). I think that population (particularly local majorities) could be factored in to make this interesting.

So far we have only released our version for PC and Mac, but we are starting work on an iPhone version that will be coming soon.Just move the beginning of the game much closer to the end, call it Instaciv

It's something we have considered and we have had other requests for a Linux port, but we aren't sure yet (mostly it's an issue of testing because I don't think anyone on our team is running a Linux build). Would you be more interested in trying out PocketCiv if it had a Linux port?
Absolutely!
Actually many moden games run fine on Linux, more than one would think. I've played Civ 5, Civ 6, The Witcher 1-3 and several others on Linux, without any bugs or issues.

You both still need to phrase a post to qualify for the raffle
.See reply #18 (less spying!)You both still need to phrase a post to qualify for the raffle
Making it obvious I didn't read the op :/You both still need to phrase a post to qualify for the raffle
Well, I can't think of a reason to preemptively ask for less of something. I am sure it wouldn't help to rephrase to "less of not featuring civil war mechanics", since the question is about stuff already planned to be there.

Micromanagement
Ok, thank you for this feedback! I'll pass it along to the team.
Too late to get in on this? Apparently not!
I'd like less currencies and other statistical assets to raise (actually fewer, but never mind the grammar). I counted the ones in Civ 6 and came up with *deep breath* food, population, housing, production, amenities, power, gold, science, culture, faith, tourism, diplomatic favor, governor titles, envoys, trade route capacity, spy capacity, each strategic resource, and all the separate types of great person points. And possibly a few more depending on what you think counts. Certainly worth streamlining in future games.

Less fiddly micromanaging. I should be choosing between things that have a big effect on gameplay, not +/- one yield. Civ6 districts come to mind.
Elegant design with emergent complexity is amazing, though it's very difficult in a game like civ so I don't fault the devs
