Civilization V: Brave New World Review | GamingBolt
"Civilization is like a cousin to me. It has been there as long as I can remember and, for every great memory I have of us spending hours together, there are just as many where we didn't speak for lengthy periods. There was also that time I nearly failed my A levels during a particular Civ 4 addiction, something I won't forgive Sid Meier for any time soon. Civilization 5 wasn't the same though, shedding many of the series' deeper mechanics in favour of simplifying the formula."
