Sid Meiers Civilizationis easily one of the most recognized strategy game franchises in gaming history.
However, recent years have left the series feeling stagnant.
Stuck in place by unchanging mechanics and a lack of uniqueness to the games various groups and civilizations.

Unlike theCivilizationseriesand even other 4X strategy gamesHumankindwill let players create a unique civilization based around 60 different cultures.
Its a breath of fresh air for the genre and something weve needed for quite a while.
The 4Xs
Explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate.
They say history is written by the victor, and inHumankindyour aim is to rewrite history completely.
Humankind could have a depth most 4X games havent come close to exploring yet.
But I never thought it actually had any real meaning.
At least, not until I played my first game ofCivilization IV.
It was this addicting gameplay that got me into strategy games.
