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.

a long time fan of the strategy game Civilization series and it plays really well on the Nintendo Switch and even gives kids the basic ideas on what it takes to build a society.

It's Civ on the go, what else can I say? Controls are surprisingly good and intuitive for a strategy game on a console. Graphics are also pretty nice for a Switch game. 100% happy with my purchase.

Amazing! Runs really well on the Switch. I would only get this if you have the newest version of the Switch. The OG Switch is known to get a bit too hot IMO while playing this game.

I was really surprised how well the game works, but it's essentially the same experience as on PC with controls that do a pretty good job considering there's no mouse and keyboard. If you like Civilization, you'll like this!

This game works great if you keep to smaller maps during the first hundred rounds. Even in the smallest maps it lags a lot in the latter part of the game. There's too much going on for the Switch to handle well so it slows down considerably. Also, I takes a long time to combine and move units because you don't have a keyboard and mouse. Great game though if you can keep to small maps and finish games relatively quick.

Fun game! If you at a fan of the previous versions of the game you will like it. The switch controls take some time to get used to but it’s good once you know how to maneuver.

I'm new to the whole Civilization gameplay but it's been really fun so far. There's a lot to learn if you are new to playing like I am. I would still highly recommend if you enjoy strategic gameplay.

Like the series and this game. It looks good and is quite fun to play. Just save every so often, long games could end up crashing or your battery dying on a long trip or wait

Like Civilization 2 through 5 before it, Civilization 6 keeps building on the wonderful franchise. Great new things are added and everything you loved before has been kept. The graphics on the Switch look great!

I don't love civilization 6 as much as I loved 5, but it's still a pretty good game. Definitely nice to have it on a portable console so you can play on the go.

I love being able to play Civ on the go. It ruins pretty well, and they did a great job mapping the controls for playing on a controller. In some ways, I feel it's even better than using a mouse.

This game is a game of strategy. You build your CIV depending on how you want to go through the eras. Great game but requires patience.
