Civilization for me... I don't mind the newer versions but I'm old enough that I've played it since Civ I and I do sort of feel like it's lost something as the graphics have improved and animations were introduced. Still, irrespective of the version, every game is a little different and eats hours like nothing else.
I have many versions of the game but the one I keep playing despite all the years that have passed, itβs Civ 5.
Have you tried Unciv? https://yairm210.itch.io/unciv It's a free and open source remake of Civ 5 and already supports many of its features. I really enjoy playing it as it's much less hardware intensive which makes for near instant loading times and keeps the computer nice and cool on hot summer days.
Oh I have not! Thank you, I'll have a look!
