### 1/5 — Peggio di prima!

*2026-06-30, version 5.5.0*

Con l’ultimo aggiornamento non è più possibile neanche valutare l’app consultando le informazioni dell’epoca antica di Civilization VII gratuitamente, ma l’intera civilopedia del 7º capitolo va acquistata “sulla fiducia” senza poterla testare.
E, visto che quando era ancora gratuita comunque mancava di varie informazioni, non penso proprio valga la pena di spenderci soldi.

### 5/5 — 素晴らしい手触り

*2026-06-12*

civ7の最新アップデートの内容、追加指導者、文明の内容も取り込まれていて、他言語にも対応。civ7に触れない時でもこのアプリでciv7の世界に飛び込めます。各種アイコン画像も最新化されて見た目もいい。

### 5/5 — ICON

*2026-06-05, version 5.2.2*

Thanks for adding all icons in Civ 6

### 2/5 — No descriptions civ 7

*2026-06-04*

Unfortunately this app is not much help for civ 7 as there’s no descriptions for anything for civ 7 bar historical context

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2026-03-01*

Amazing, lovely and detailed! Just one, thing, please could you make a setting for anthology in general so I don’t have to search through rising fall and gathering storm separately? It doesn’t affect the rating though. Just a recommendation. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Fantastic App for Civilization 5…except I cannot find information about Public School

*2026-02-11*

The title says it all. This app has provided the most accurate information that I found.

### 5/5 — Imprescindible

*2026-01-29, version 5.0.1*

Impresionante recopilación de información del juego, para 5 estrellas falta actualizar cosas del CIV VII, aun así vale su peso en oro

### 3/5 — Update still needed

*2025-12-26, version 5.0.1*

Needs an update for Civ vii!!! Please please PLEASEE finish updating this app for the new game.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2025-12-06*

Honestly my only beef with it is that it’s still missing icons/images from the latest Civ6 stuff that was released. Can be a bit frustrating to city plan with question marks for wonders or districts. On that note, also not being able to add buildings within the districts feels like a no brainer. Similar to the tactical view in game

### 5/5 — Useful and informative

*2025-10-09*

Super useful to play Civilization games and learn more about our civilisations.
Would be amazing to include Civ Beyond Earth and Rising Tide !
