The current franchise is up to its fourth PC installment and most recently was redesigned for console and handheld systems. Civilization Revolution takes the strategy games its fans know and love and bring it to the DS in a way that makes it easy to pick up for beginners and a satisfying experience for fans of the series who want to bring the game on the road.
Civilization Revolution is a turn-based strategy game that allows you to pick a world leader and develop your civilization from the stone age to the space age. The leaders are recognizable figures from world history, such as Abraham Lincoln, Gandhi, and Napoleon. There are 16 civilizations to choose from, each with its own advantages. The goal is to expand your civilization and win in one of four ways: Domination victory is won through conquering all other capitals, Economic victory is won through accumulation of gold, Cultural victory is won through amassing 20 great people, converted cities and wonders, and Scientific victory is won by building a space ship and blasting off."
Dorkly: "History is written by the winners, and that applies to games, too. While we hold up our post-apocalyptic wasteland adventures, period piece assassinations and Liberty City crime sprees on a pedestal, we would do well to remember the little guys. These underseen, criminally underplayed games didn't do well critically or commercially, but they were still wonderful experiences. Here's a small list of recommendations of unsung heroes of the PS3/Xbox 360/Wii era."

XMNR: 2K Games and Firaxis Games officially unveiled “Civilization: Beyond Earth” at a PAX East, which ended Sunday. The storied franchise heads for the stars for the second time in its twenty-three year history but the history of Sid Meier’s just-one-more-turn creation is as interesting as the games themselves.
