  • Recommended Posted September 15, 2025 on Steam All Civilization games are great. Each new iteration either adds to or enhances the various features of the games. I started with the original Civ game and have enjoyed playing each iteration. I've played Civ V for 20459 hours to date (according to my Steam account). That's equivalent to playing 8 hours per day every day for 2,557 days (or about 7 years). Since I will be 70 in about 2 months, you can see I usually spent more time playing video games than watching TV when I came home from work. That was all when I was a lot younger.
  • Recommended Posted March 15, 2026 on Steam Pretty cheap considering you can get over 6,000 hours of entertainment out of it.
  • Recommended Posted June 26, 2025 on Steam "Just one more turn." Oh, you thought you were gonna play for 15 minutes? Nope, you're playing for 15 hours. Man this game is amazing. There's a lot of improvements i like in Civ VI but V is just so much... cleaner? smoother? The aesthetics and gameplay is just better. The tone and graphics being more serious. Simpler game mechanics but lots of depth to them. Better pacing on standard speed. Much better policy system and worker system. If you want to experience the pinnacle of civilization games, fire up Civ V.
  • Recommended Posted December 17, 2025 on Steam Play this and never touch a later Civ game unless 8 in 2030-something is actually good.
  • Recommended Posted October 2, 2025 on Steam They should stop making Civilization games and start making Civilization V games
  • Recommended Posted January 17, 2026 on Steam I have been playing this game since I was 19 years old. I am now 32 and a mom of four. I am basically a Granny and this is the only video game that I play. I highly recommend it, if you can accept the recommendation from an internet Grandma. I tried Civ 6 once but I am a Civ 5 purist because I don't know any better.
