Cool

Olazimir!*

Civilizations Wars is like a cross between Phage Wars (population and combat mechanics) and Gemcraft (main map, skill levels and unlockable game modes).  In itself, that's no bad thing: Phage Wars has a neat combat system and Gemcraft is a solid tower-defence game with a great campaign and skill structure around it.

But Civilizations Wars doesn't look like Phage Wars or Gemcraft.  It looks like this:

Opening credits...  In a Flash game?

Awesome opening credits at that.

When three tribes go to war...

Yay turtles!

Replaying the first map, mopping up the last of the Roman-type tribe.  You can see a bunch of my Golems at left, being utterly ineffectual.

My Egypt-type armies are on the move!

It smells like...  victory!

It's a fun mini-4X game with some really cool artwork.  Definitely worth taking a look.

* Well, that's what it sounds like they're saying.
