About Sid Meier's Colonization (Classic)
The Tradition of Civilization Continues
The New World lies before you with all its peril, promise and infinite possibility. Your colonists anxiously follow you to shore. The treasures of an entire continent await you.
Finally, the much-anticipated follow-up to Civilization is here! Sid Meier's Colonization takes you into the Colonial Era to discover, explore and colonize vast territories that promise both danger and reward.
Play one of four colonial powers as you set sail to discover the New World. Explore new lands and strategically plant your first colony. Direct its growth, manage its resources and establish lucrative trade routes. Balance economics, political and military strategy to create your own powerful nation.
But beware of your enemies! Angry natives and rival powers can encroach upon your territory. You'll have to overcome your foes with superior military strategy and wily diplomacy. Only then can you launch your revolution and declare your independence.

Very fun and addicting game, even over 30 years later!
Capacity for larp is acceptable. Pretty simple/intuitive. Very addictive. Some aspects very unrealistic. 15+% tax on any given colonial import is just completely ridiculous but it's a necessary mechanic to incentivize independence so I get it. Play England if you want it to make sense. Play Dutch if you want to have fun coming up with dumb names.
Finally a game which shows respect to the great age of european exploration. And fixes the issue so many strategy games have where the end game becomes a foregone conclusion or takes too much grinding to reach. You can go to the endgame any time you want, and all you have to do is survive, then retake your cities. Brilliant design.
Great game
Amazing game. Evenb after 20 years.
A classic strategy game with a great flow.
