Admirals: Caribbean Empires vs Sid Meier’s Civilization VI
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 VI
Sid Meier’s Civilization VI is what many fans have dubbed as the worst Civilization game so far. Why's that though? Well, one major concern about this game is its terrible AI system. Considering that you'll be playing with many different AIs, each controlling a different country, it can be hard to cooperate with them when they are being incredibly unreasonable when it comes to diplomacy, trade and well, basically everything really. Can you imagine an AI proposing a deal to you but ended up breaking up the deal because it didn't agree with the terms it made in the first place? Anyway, there are many other game-breaking bugs too, some of which will crash the game.However, the game does have many of the features that had made the Civilization series great as well as really appealing graphics, it's just that there are too many broken stuff that apparently won't get fixed anytime soon. If you are considering getting this game, we'd recommend you to get Civ 5 instead. It may be older but it's definitely a lot superior than this installment.
