Customers are saying

Customers admire Sid Meier's Civilization VI for its addictive and engaging gameplay, offering numerous possibilities and extensive playtime. The game's portability is also a significant plus, with many praising its convenience on the Switch. However, some users find the controls challenging and require time to master, while others mention the game's complexity and steep learning curve. The smaller screen size on the Switch is also noted as a potential drawback by some players.

    For strategy fans only! It is a very hard game to get into and did not have many instructions.

    Fun game but confusing during the early stages. Especially being a first time civ player. Tutorial was of no help.

    The load time is slow even for a switch game. It’s not a game that is meant to be played in handheld mode.

    Navigation interface leaves much to be desired. Game lacks the depth of other civilization titles.

    It's fun but gets so sluggish it barely runs. I think it's just to resource heavy.

    The design of this game is amazing, but the game itself wasn’t as fun as the older Civilization games.

    I am a big civilization fan but this one really sucks. I played the PC versions and liked them a whole lot better than the Nintendo switch version. I bought it because it was on sale and thought it would be a good game.. totally wrong.

    If interested in building game then look for a sim city type game and not this one.
