The game begins it's play in 3000
B.C., the dawn of Civilization. You can choose to play up to
seven civilizations spread across a random generated map or
a premade world (Earth). You begin as one of the
seven, and attempt to build up an empire from a
single settler. Throughout the game and over a turn-based
course of time, your actions in the game determine the
outcome based upon your military, political and economic
decisions. Your goals are to conquer the world and
eventually send a spaceship to Alpha Centauri.
Note: The SNES version is essentially
a trimmed down game. It is not only ported but restructured
and has many differences in play. Obviously save game files
are not compatible with anything PC.
