Facebook Expands to Sid Meier’s Civilization World

2K and Firaxis Games have announced that their newest social game is ready to receive gamers. Sid Meier’s Civilization World is currently in Beta on Facebook.

Developed at Firaxis Games by legendary game designer and creator of the Civilization series, Sid Meier, Civilization World offers a deep, robust gameplay experience, and an end goal for all players to strive towards. Players can now take charge of their civilizations and jump into Civilization World by logging into their Facebook account and accessing this app page: apps.facebook.com/civworld.

The game has some annoying gameplay loops that need to be fixed in the beta. It will constantly tell you that you haven’t enough of something if you click to build once. It’s like it doesn’t register that you clicked close. So it’s not perfect yet and you’ll get frustrated to the point of leaving the game. I’ve already reported the bug as it totally breaks gameplay and prevents you from doing other things at times.

Civilization World is set in a persistent online world where players collaborate with friends to become the strongest nation to accomplish an end goal of becoming the world’s most powerful civilization. Players manage and grow their own city to maximize its production and happiness, and later team up with friends to win great battles, forge powerful alliances, grant clever treaties, and create sinister schemes to outwit and overpower adversaries. Citizens can share technology to jump ahead of rivals, pass important civics and vote on vital policies, spy on enemies, and create the great wonders of the world. From the Dark Ages to the Space Age, collaborative efforts with real community leaders and ideas allow for intellect and cunning to win loyalties, battles and eras to create the most powerful nation in the world.
