Colonization review

Electronic Games (1995): "Colonization is a worthy follow-up to Civilization, and Sid Meier and Micro- Prose have once again done a great job. Players will find each new level more challenging than the last and will experience hours of fascinating game play. And who knows? That history grade may get a boost, too."

Retro gamer collector's corner:

The 2008 release Civilization IV: Colonization is a Firaxis remake of the original Colonization for Microsoft Windows. It uses the upgraded Civilization IV engine and features the original gameplay, 3D graphics, an updated AI, and multiplayer support.

Great game but has lots of bugs and cheating computer players. Still I prefer it more then new games, that has graphic only and no soul.

As long as you are aware that this game has nothing to do with the actual history (slavery...), this is the best "civilization" game of all time. it's even better than its civ4-based remake, the wagon train/ship trade system is massively powerful, and you can move your pops to different cities. therefore, specialized cities are king in this game, to a much larger extent than in any civilzation out there.
