If you played games like POLICE QUEST back in the day, this will feel pretty close to that classic. You do everything from mundane police work to obviously "gaming fun" police work and shoot outs. But it is a lot of fun and I can only hope for DLC in the future and maybe even a chance to play with others "real" people in the same city.

I like the game a lot. I would say the only irritating thing so far is managing the villagers. If I set up a villager to do a task, then he should go and find the items needed in the camp to complete the task. Making me fill every single thing in the camp up for each guy saying where is my **** seems counter productive. I can understand not forcing them to go forage for it. But if you need sticks,, walk over to the damn woodcutter hut and get it from the stacks for Christ sake.

It is hard for me to say I "don't like the game" as a whole. I have been playing CIV since the beginning and each time they change something, it irks me until I get used to the new method. I will say though, I wish there was a way to play a more classic mode if you wanted to. Here are things I am not overly fond of:

1) Each age (and it only seems to be 3 before a win happens) resets the world. So if you were invading, you lost almost everything you built up. If you were being invaded, they all disappear. So that just brings your momentum to a staggering halt.

2) If you start playing Roman, you have to play a different type even if you want to still play as Augustus. So you're Caesar playing as Spain. Etc.....not a huge fan of that right now but it does force you to learn new units which is a plus in a way.

3) They got rid of the game going on forever if you should want to win or lose. I want to destroy the entire planet which is not overly possible (at least for me). Also I get to unlock airplanes and nukes but the game ends before you are able to really use them. Either by you winning or if you try NOT to win they will. Either way, I don't get a chance to use that stuff really because the game ends.

4) Where is WORKSHOP so it can be modded. After playing a little bit with the games look, I want Middle Earth, Star Wars, etc feel to the game. I hope that will be released with this.

The long and short of it, is the new game play if short and with the eras make the game choppy. But still fun. Just not hours and hours of fun because it is over quick. I paid for the Founders Edition. Not to sure if I think that was overly worth it, but the basic game price you wont be horribly disappointed.

I will say the graphics are great and I still enjoy playing CIV. But until it gets a few more upgrades or add-ons put in, I will more than likely reinstall CIV 6 for now.

I hope this helps!

The game has come a long long way since 2018 for sure. There are still the bugs here and there and glitches. But honestly, it is part of the charm of being in a Post Apoc world so it is usually funny. But you will have fun and get into that CAMP building!

A lot of fun and tons of choices for you to play with

The game is a lot of fun. I am a huge fan of Squad Based games and one that is an Aliens theme had to be played. I would for sure say play this game if you like squad games. I won't bother listing pro's because the game is a lot of fun to play. I will list a few CONs though in case anyone is on the fence:

1) The graphics for the people in the game for the cut scenes and when customizing is beyond basic and hurts me to even look at. But once you are on mission the graphics are great as squad games go.

2) The inability to separate your squad members makes no sense to me. Unless I am missing something, it is really a pain in the ass. Especially for a real-time squad game.

3) Stuff goes sideways so quick, you should be allowed to save. The game only saves when you reach its objective points. So I have ran around for 45mins collecting stuff only to run into an onslaught and get murdered and loose all that time. I prefer to explore over just jetting to the objectives. And that can cost you a lot of RL time because you can get wiped easily if you make a misstep. Leave the unsaving ironman mode for a different hard level.

All in all I am enjoying the heck out of the game and loving the aliens theme and one-liners that come from the movies. I would defiantly recommend.

Great game. One of the classics of the RPG age that will stand the test of time.

I can't believe this came out! I almost took it off my list. So far the game at the test stage is a little buggy with walking and turning. But I see great things here and can't wait to see it develop more.

A lot of fun to play and so many options in game to use. I would caution anyone playing to watch a "how to start out video" though as it can be rough and if you use all your resources incorrectly or on something not as needed, it will be a short game.

Old graphics but still looks great!
