Civilization V is a turn based strategy game that puts the player in charge of a nation, such as China or America, leading and growing their civilization from early tribal roots to a modernized, dominant power. With near complete control over all aspects of the civilization’s growth, production, military, trade, and expansion, players can customize and strengthen their people, facing formidable barbarians and competing civilizations scattered throughout the countryside. Will war ravage the land or will there be peace between all nations?
