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.

    Not impressed with the game at all. I bought this because it was clearanced at 9.99 and needed something to pass the time but had forgotten my games when i took my switch with me. Total waste of 9.99 and I see why it was clearanced.

    I was hoping for something more like Age of Empires. This is has too much going on to be very enjoyable. The walk-through dragged on so long that by the time it was over I lost interest in the game altogether.

    This game is hard to follow and understand what the next steps are supposed to be. The concept is good but it seems like the execution on the game and flow are lacking

    This is the worst civilization game of all time. The tutorial is trash and it shouldn’t be this hard to figure out if you’ve been playing civ since civ 2

    Not at all pleased. PC games in this series are far superior. Intro is laborious and tutorial is assuming player IQ of 70. Graphics are too comedic I guess for the Nintendo audience.

    Not enough playable maps and scenarios. Much better buy for a PC where you can load many different maps.
