Not great, but good

I know a lot of people don’t like the different civ per era, but honestly I don’t mind it. Civilizations change over time, and some nations end so new ones can begin.
I personally love the quest lines for each victory path.

Confusingg

I haven’t tried this kind of game before. I got so confused, there are just too many options and many of them comes with no instructions.

Great game to add to your Apple Arcade App List

I’ve been a fan of Sid Meier’s Civilization series and Civ VII is another great evolution. I enjoy this Apple Arcade version and it really look great on my iPad Pro. This one is a keeper!

Love it

Thanks for bringing Civ7 to Mobile so fast! I enjoy it almost as much as Civ6.
I’m sure overtime I will like even more

Volcano Eruption and Other Natural Disaster Notifications

If you have your scouts discover the whole map, the notifications are OVERWHELMING. I don’t need to know that a volcano on the other side of the big map erupted. It’s too much.
