Admirals: Caribbean Empires vs Sid Meier's Civilization V
Admirals: Caribbean Empires
Admirals: Caribbean Empires is a brand-new, browser-based strategy/tycoon game developed by Travian. Set in the 17th century, during the Age of Exploration, you’ll need to live up to your new role as a captain and earn Glory for your King and country by building a trading empire, expanding your fleet, and taking on the enemies of the King.So, basically, what you’ll be doing is to buy certain profitable goods from one port and then shipping the goods to another port to sell them off for a much more lucrative price. You can set up multiple trade routes and the ships will automatically run the routes until you put a stop to it. You can also explore the Caribbean with your scoutships to discover new cities and floating loot. However, you'll need to be careful of the pirates and rival players that roam the seas. Unless you're well-equipped, your ship may not survive the encounter!
Interestingly, the game has a political aspect to it as well. You can be appointed as a governor of a city and launch attacks on other cities in an attempt to bring those cities into the fold.
In short, Admirals: Caribbean Empires is a pretty fun and entertaining game that lets you build your trading empire in the Caribbean in the 17th century, battle pirates and navigate the political intrigue of the era if you so wish to. It’s definitely not the sort of game that you can play for hours at a stretch but instead, you can check in now and then to modify your trade routes and explore new areas on the map using your scoutships.
Sid Meier's Civilization V
Sid Meier's Civilization V may just be every Civilization games before it, but it does it so well that many fans have touted this game as possibly the best Civilization game ever. The gameplay has been greatly improved mainly because the game has a lot more new game modes, a better variety of leaders, fun scenarios and a wide range of units that are balanced surprisingly well. The AI in this game is still as badly-predictable as before though, but its multiplayer aspect is as epic as ever, especially if you can find a group of players who knows how to play the game well enough to play with you. Aside from the breathtaking graphics and musical scores, there are plenty of mods you can use or you can easily make some of your own too.Sid Meier's Civilization V provides you with all the best features from its previous games while adding in some fun improvements of its own. It may not be perfect, but it's possibly the best Civ game so far.
