Tasty Humans is a 30-60 minute, tile-laying, pattern-building game for 1-4 players. Carcassonne is a tile-placement game in which the players draw and place a tile with a piece of southern French landscape on it. When that area is complete, that meeple scores points for its owner.

So, why should I go back to make a historical, tile-based 4X game? Civ inherited this mechanic directly from Empire, a game from the 80s which had much of the same tile-based, turn-based combat as Civ but without the scope of all human history. New borders would come from tile specialists and urban improvement.

The big change that always gets mentioned when going from Civ 4 to Civ 5 is one-unit-per-tile (1UPT), which is interesting as 1UPT is purely a mechanical – as opposed to thematic – change. Generally speaking, opinions were divided over (although largely in favor of) the success of one-unit-per-tile.

And based on the current situation, or plans for what’s to come, you can even pivot your whole build at one point or another. In this test recording, a robot created by the Botcube is represented with a Mutant tile, but will have their own once released. It’s a cube. It makes a bot. Creating a Botcube mutant.

This points out that new playable content is consumed faster than in other SC games. This analysis is written by Hadrian Semroud , Javier Barnes and Krishna Israney. No reason to play leagues…).

I mean, part of why I can’t believe that is that for almost a full year after the launch, I was furiously updating the game: two new factions, a new game mode (arguably two), a map editor, tons and tons of balance changes, polishing, bugfixes, you name it. Not to mention porting the game to iOS, Android, Switch, and XBox.
