Civilization 7 review

Civilization 7 is a 4X turn-based strategy game developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K Games, priced at approximately £60. It features a streamlined approach for accessibility and pacing, particularly in multiplayer settings, diverging from the complexity of Civilization 6. The game introduces Age transitions, allowing players to maintain a single leader while evolving through three Ages: Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern, with each transition involving a civilization crisis that leads to selecting a new civilization. New systems are introduced in each Age, such as religion in the Exploration Age and ideologies in the Modern Age. The citizen management system has been replaced with slottable resources, and diplomacy has been simplified, feeling more transactional. The game retains a captivating flow and builds on the art style of Civilization 5, but the simplification of complex systems raises concerns about the depth of the gameplay experience.
