I'm probably the only one in the world (or at least among civers) that thought Conquest of the New World Deluxe was far superior to Colonization. I just didn't think that Colonization was that good. In fact, I found the very best game dealing with that time period and world event was the Civ2 scenario, Struggle for Empire. Oh well.Comment

Actually, I think Conquest of the New World Deluxe is great too. While the idea for the game was obviously a direct ripoff of Colonisation, the implementation was completely different and arguably superior. But in some ways it's like comparing chalk and cheese - two completely dfiiferent games giving completely different experiences. I'd have loved to have seen them update the graphics using a 3D engine. As it is, zooming right in and moving an explorer really feels like exploring new land (you can't see what's just up ahead), even if it is chunky graphics.Avoid COLONY RUSH on Galactic Civlizations II (both DL & DA) with my Slow Start Mod.

In and of itself, Colonization is a poor game. There are a lot of things that I would like to see improved and augmented. There are also a lot of things that annoy me about it. However there is nothing that I would require fundamentally changed - the core game is excellent which is why it is a favourite.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

The only thing in the game that needs changing is the graphics. It was fanboys like you who ruined Civ 3.

The game play is perfect, and shouldn't be tampered with in the slightest.
It has an exciting opening: establishing your colonies and exploration. My favourite part of any TBS is always the setting up of my empire.
It has an engrossing middle section: consolidating your colony. Getting all the right workers, [hunting down those tobacco planters is always pleasurably elusive], building up your forts, improving the land, trading, dealing diplomatically with your rivals and the indians.
Then the game has an incredible finale when you must test your work with fire. No anti-climatic spaceship race, no dull ascent to transcendence when all your foes are already smashed by war.
Colonization is the only TBS that keeps me interested the entire way to the end. Most others become boring once you are established and slowly defeating each enemy one by one.
To anyone who wishes to make changes, or has a problem with Colonization - go and play something else. All an update needs is new graphics.
