    Call to Power II (CTP2) is the latest game in the long and illustrious line descended from Sid Meier's classic game, Civilization. You lead a civilization from the dawn of time, through the modern age, and into the far future, competing with other civilizations for land resources, and even your very survival. Read more

    Not a ground-breaker, but still the best Civ clone Read more

    Call To Power II is a turn-based strategy game where you take control of a certain civilization and lead them from the 4000 BC to 2300 AD, a time period that is much longer then previous Civilization games (it's 6,300 years of history!). In the game you are able to command your people by military, economic, scientific and cultural decisions and manage the growth of your cities, explore new land, and exploit the world's resources as you contend for power.

    A good turn based game based upon a classic. Read more

    • Attractive presentation; slick interface; editor extends replayability; the majority of problems have been corrected from the first game.
    • Diplomacy needs some work; no revolutionary gameplay changes.

    This game is an odd one for me. I owned it for years and years, never really getting into it or understanding what the heck I was supposed to do in it. I was one of those players who would have a quick dabble before bed time, and not really get anywhere. However, one day I decided to sit down and read the rather comprehensive (original) instruction manual. Read more
