My dad was obsessed with this game while I was growing up and I was so proud to learn how to use DOSBox so that he could play it again. A very formative game for me and I get a nostalgic itch to revisit it every few years. Just seeing the title, I can hear the music playing.

This was one of the hardest Civ games for me. It&#x27;s so much harder than Civ 2 or +

The page author doesn&#x27;t seem to be a big fan of the Civ IV total conversion, but I actually had a lot of fun with it over the Christmas break (the Steam version is included in a bundle with Civ IV). I haven&#x27;t played the original though, so I&#x27;m not attached to any features that might have been dropped.

Loved that game! Fiddled around and figured out how to hack what price goods sold for and to change who (indentured servants vs. skilled trades people) was willing to cross the ocean.

Off topic but, Phantom wallet blocked this domain when I clicked on the link as being &#x27;malicious&#x27;. I also found out I still had that extension installed on this browser profile.

Hard not to like it after the enchantment of playing Civ.

Why is this flagged?<p>The original domain has been suspended, but the article was insightful and of geek&#x2F;hacker interest. The link can be replaced by the web archive, as has been done by someone else in the comments.

This link is broken for me, but here&#x27;s a different writeup on the same game.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.filfre.net&#x2F;2020&#x2F;12&#x2F;ethics-in-strategy-gaming-part-2-colonization&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.filfre.net&#x2F;2020&#x2F;12&#x2F;ethics-in-strategy-gaming-par...</a>
