Civilization Card Game ... Quirky but Good
Message:
Plays well two player.
Toughen up your skin because history is cruel.
A number of expansions of mixed review. Trying to grok the main chaos before adding more.
It is a tough game to learn in that the terms are a bit odd. Your brain will resist because it has been trained to do so.
Odd things happen which makes you think, this must be broken but somehow it's not.
Took us a few games to figure it out and now, it's a keeper.
I was playing the third edition because that's what I had. A friend bought 4th edition after learning.

It's much prettier and has a little more chaos. I would get that because it's prettier. (There is a purity in the old ways but I wasn't there for them when they were not old.)
(I had it in my bag at Richmond but thought the games I pulled more suitable for the moment.)
Yours,
