Sid Meier's Civilization III Gold Edition

by  mcmaster ,  Jan 7, 2004
61 out of 61 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Civilization III is a very smart and challenging game!
Cons: It takes a weekend to play a game.
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this game to any strategy war gamer!
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: What a pleasant surprise. I have tried some of Sid Meier s games in the past and was not that impressed. Most of his games are 80% city building and 20% military. Civilization III Gold is a nice balance of the two and then some. Not only do...

Don't Get Hooked...

by  mcheesecake ,  Oct 30, 2007
15 out of 15 people found this review helpful.
Pros: enormously expansive, ridiculously replayable
Cons: goodbye, productivity...
The Bottom Line: A fantastic strategy game (or history primer) if you have a few days to throw away.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: I m morally obligated to tell you right off the bat: Don t buy Civilization III unless you have hours upon hours of your life to throw away. But if you do, you won t be disappointed.

The premise, of course, is that you are the ruler of a...

Get ready to Rule

by  raiderrus ,  Feb 12, 2009
13 out of 13 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Always different, simple but complex
Cons: graphics could be better, not much action
The Bottom Line: Very good game, enjoyable for years
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Sid Meier's Civ III is a great strategy game for those able to devote hours to one campaign. You will need to set aside ample time as the gameplay for this can be quite consuming, unless you wipe out all of your rivals early on in the game. It's a...

Another Pointless Add-On

by  duke101 ,  Jun 25, 2005
13 out of 13 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Better AI, new world wonders, tribes, and civilization attributes
Cons: Still the same basic game, in-game scenarios are restrictive and uninteresting
The Bottom Line: Unless you can't get enough of Civ 3 and mods that alter the rules of the game, don't bother
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
Review: I am a self-professed Civ 3 addict, perhaps not as much as the good folks on www.civfanatics.com, who appear to have a bit too much free time on their hands, but enough so, that I've become familiar with many of the game's subtle points. And...

Different, but the same

by  MrBulldogg ,  Apr 13, 2004
13 out of 13 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Lots of new goodies, interesting twists in the gameplay
Cons: Stupid AI
The Bottom Line: This is a top-notch expansion pack for newbies and hardcore Civvers alike.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Civ III is pretty close to the ultimate open-ended strategy game (at least by today's standards), so how do you improve on perfection? You don't - you add bells and whistles, but discriminatingly so to avoid going over the top.

The most...

Great Game with Hours of Entertainment

by  hawesa ,  Mar 10, 2008
11 out of 11 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Long game time- won't get bored Good graphics
Cons: Not being able to ignore opponents moving through your own territory
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this game because it has many hours of game time, is very entertaining, and has many different outcomes.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Civilization III is an awesome game. It never gets boring because every game is very different. You can choose which civilization to be, and whether you want to focus on science, military, economy, or culture (I almost always focus on advancing...

Interesting game, but can get repetitive

by  millikm1 ,  Apr 28, 2004
10 out of 10 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Interesting concept, build empires, rule the world. Very stable game.
Cons: Repetitive once you have conquered the world a few times. Not enough technology options.
The Bottom Line: Recommended, will keep you interested and playing till you have won a few times.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: I bought Civilization III Gold Edition at Best Buy for 30 bucks. I have played it for several months and have begun to tire of it a bit. However, I did enjoy learning it and it is a novel approach to this type of game. Civ III never crashed and...

The Game

by  sentra ,  Sep 18, 2006
7 out of 7 people found this review helpful.
Pros: A fun and effective way to spend your time if you are a gamer.
Cons: Get the update patch. Did have problems once due to not having it.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: This is a fun and time consuming game.
The key points of the game is to pick the civilization you want to be and play as that civilization till the game is over. After you start the game and have decided what country you want to be you have to...
