Video Game Reviews of Civilization II: Multiplayer (Gold Edition)
Customer Review: Simple, Works Well, Mod-able
Summary: 4 Stars
Civ II contains most if not all of the crucial elements in building a civlization, if such things can be "built". Thus, its simplicity is not much of a drawback for me, although today's games can be more realistic because of their more powerful game engines.
One of the winning attributes of Civ II is the extent to which it can be modified. By making changes to the existence of certain political ideologies, the connectivity and contents of the technology tree, the distribution of various natural resources (food vs industrial vs trade), and the general & special attributes of different units, the game can be made both more historic and less tedious. You can consequently influence how well different strategies would work out, or introduce new dynamics into play. Even the game's looks can be altered, so don't forget to try out some of the more extensive mods made by fans.
I recommend Civ II to players who enjoy customizability and casual fun.
