About the game
Civilization VI is a turn-based strategy game, in which the players compete against the computer to grow a civilisation from a small tribe to taking control of a whole planet. The game is based on four gameplay elements “eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate.” Basically you have to find cities, expand them, build military, develop technology, make governments and more.
It uses the hex-based grid, which was brought in with Civilization V. This game requires players to focus on city unstacking, rather than city consolidation inside of walls. This helps in reducing the congestion on the map.
The end goal of the game is to develop a civilization and become a world power. It also recreates a lot of historic events that took place in the actual past of the civilization that you are trying to develop.
The game is currently available on Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
