    I agree with Vetlegion - That is definately not the PC version! (cetainly not the version I played in 1991)

    The screen shot looks like it comes from a TV not a PC monitor.

        Civ 3 10 years ago?? I got into civ about 9 years ago, a year after it was released, as id heard a few good reviews about it, and saw it at a reduced price somewhere. I was young then 5 years after that, i was still playing it. I actually got up for school 3 hours early just so i could play civ for those 3 hours each morning
        I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

          I also played on a black and white laptop, but I was running off of solar power in the West African bush. I wonder if I had the only copy in Africa. Hmmm....

            I got CIV 1 when it first came out - but for over three months it sat on my shelf collecting dust!

            Once I finally installed and played it for the first time I realised what an idiot I had been

            In the UK you normally only get three years at University, a period in your life with no major responsiblities and lots of free time.

            WHAT A WASTE!!!!! neally 10% of my time as a student when I had the opportunity but didnt play CIV

              Didn't you get these greek dudes, when you were a civ without invention but with democracy OR republic? (which would not be necessary in Civ I, because you could stay in despotism without any problems)

                Are you sure that shot isn't from the Super Nintendo version?

                  Not as depicted in the screen shot (PC version)
                  The screenshot has a totally different drawn style from what I remember.
                  - On the PC version You had the face of the leader you were talking to and arround the leader would be a number of advisors depending on how powerful he/she was.

                    No, these are screenshots from a final beta review for the PC (MS-DOS). For some reason the graphics were changed at the last moment (some mysteries will never be solved ).


                    P.S
                    MarkG and DanQ can confirm these pictures are genuine. I sent them the evidence a few weeks ago.
                    Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

                            You never played the original Railroad Tycoon then. You'll find the same sort of graphics in that one.
