We came up with a Game Master mode for Community Month | June is Mod Month

June 01, 2023 10:00 - 33 minutes - 76.4 MB

We had an entire month of community games, and we came up with a fun way to have more control on the competitiveness of the game. After the first week, we saw a runaway victory and had to rethink how we can ensure everyone has fun. We introduced a "Game Master" that spectates the game, asks trivia questions, and creates rewards to the winner of the trivia. --- Advertise with TheCivShow!

Retro Civ Month: Civilization 5 - Hexagons are the bestagons || Predicting the abilities of the Rulers of England

March 28, 2023 10:00 - 55 minutes - 126 MB

This March, we'll be playing through all the old Civilization games that are available on steam. Civilization 5 was another big turning point in the series that introduced HEXAGONS! They also introduced social policies into governments allowing players to mix and match how they pleased, and they took away the infamous unit stack.

This March, we'll be playing through all the old Civilization games that are available on steam. Civilization 4 was a big turning point in the series that properly integrated multiplayer. It was nominated as PC Gamer US's "Best Multiplayer Game 2005" and overall game of the year, but lost in these categories to Battlefield 2. IGN chose it as the PC Game of the Year of 2005 over competing titles such as F.E.A.R. and Guild Wars, the Best Strategy Game (both for PC and overall) and as the Best ...

Retro Civ Month: Civilization 3 - What do you mean there are no hexagons?

March 09, 2023 11:00 - 38 minutes - 89.2 MB

This March, we'll be playing through all the old Civilization games that are available on steam. The oldest game available is Civilization 3. There are a lot of mechanics in this game that have carried over to other Civilization games, but there are also some not so good mechanics that didn't make it to Civilization 4.

January 19, 2023 11:00 - 49 minutes - 112 MB

Tokugawa has to be the most talked about leader since the new Leader Pass released a couple months ago. We never realized how incredible domestic trade routes can really be when you pair Magnus promotions with government plaza's in the capital. We finally get to play the new leaders from the Great Commanders pack, and we agree that this pack added 3 very good leaders to Civ 6.

Civilization Beyond Earth, Creating a custom Civilization with Peppermint_Butler, and TheCivGive2021

Civilization Beyond Earth was released back in 2014 as an "in-between" game between Civilization V and Civilization VI. When it first came out, people were thrown off about the game not being a historical 4x despite it having the "Civilization" branding; with many agreeing that it, "Just didn't feel like Civ."  Last Sunday, Zo and Moy recently tried Beyond Earth and were genuinely surprised at how much fun they had with the game.

September 25, 2021 12:00 - 35 minutes - 80.7 MB

Ever wondered how crazy it would be if you received the same bonuses as a Deity AI? 5 warriors, 3 settlers, 3 builders on turn 1, +100% bonus production and gold, +40% bonus Culture, Science, and Faith yields, and +50% combat XP. These bonuses allowed us to produce a lot of units and get to high tech units very quickly. Everyone easily had over 1000 military strength, and at the end of the game, almost 2000 military strength.
