[Sid Meier]? game in which the player is the ruler of a civilization of her choice, starting the game with nothing but an explorer and building an empire according to her wishes. The game requires a fair amount of micromanagement (though less than any of the Sim games), requiring the player to choose which improvements or units to put in each city, as well as where to build new cities, and allowing transformation of the landscape in later years. The player's towns are harassed periodically by "barbarians"; the game can be won either by destroying all other civilizations or by being the first civilization to colonize space.

This game has been one of the most popular strategy games of all time. With a loyal following of fans. This high level of interest has even spawned a 'free' version of the game available on linux system called freeciv.
