Sid Meier's Civilization IV vs The Battle of Polytopia
Sid Meier's Civilization IV
Sid Meier's Civilization IV is the fourth installment of the incredibly-successful grand strategy franchise, Civilization. In addition to the many features that had made the previous games great, this iteration brings the series to greater heights by adding in multiple improvements and new features, including new ways to play and win, tools to manage and expand your civilization, easy-to-use and more extensive mod capabilities as well as much more exciting and intense multiplayer modes. The graphics are so much better than Civ 3 though, there are still some flaws in this version, namely the relationship between nations (AI-played nations seem to get angry at you pretty easily) and the happiness level in the regions you control. That aside, Sid Meier's Civilization IV is a pretty awesome and older game to play, especially if you enjoy a deeper gameplay. Give it a try!The Battle of Polytopia
The Battle of Polytopia is a fun turn-based strategy game that has a really unique art style and is the flagship game of the small indie game studio in Sweden, Midjiwan. Choose any of the tribes available and set off on an exciting adventure across a rich and diverse world filled with places to explore, and areas to claim for your empire. Best yet, the game generates a random map whenever you start a new game, giving you literally unlimited replayability.Since its release, The Battle of Polytopia has been really well-received, rocketing the small indie company to substantial fame, which admittedly is a pretty high feat, especially for a company's first game. So, if you are a fan of turn-based strategy games, you'll want to try this game out.
