If you adore being forced to spend hours tinkering with tiny menus and sliders, then Revolution probably isn’t the kind of epic that will keep you hooked.īut for the console world, there’s little doubt that this is the strategy game of the moment. With so much cut away to encourage a new set of fans, Revolution is certainly not the kind of game that the series has consistently offered up. It’s safe to say that long time fans of the series might find all these changes off-putting. Here it’s all chunky buildings and colourful characters, whereas the PC version is all menus and zoomed out world views. The visuals feel much more, for want of a better word, gamey than the PC-based versions of the series. While the latter forces you to spend an hour flicking through turns to simply explore your immediate surroundings and develop a few warriors, here it’ll be a half hour before you’re firmly to grips with the game mechanics and making bloody battle with your huge empire. The world map too is much smaller, and can be traversed in a tiny slither of the time of the PC version. Religion has consistently played a huge part in all aspects of the series, but here it’s little more than a token boost to your cities’ culture. ![]() That’s not the only trim of the Civilization fat that Revolution is lumbered with. The diplomatic and economic options that could be micromanaged to an astonishing level in the PC version have been stripped away, leaving a much more streamlined, and dare I say, simplistic set of options. Though the ultimate goal of world conquest remains, combat is certainly the avenue that you’re prodded down at almost all times. This console reworking is a different beast. Single player games of Civilization could last dozens of hours, with no achievement points or trophies to satisfy your need for recognition.
