Civilization VI Xbox One Review | Windows Central

As a first-time Civilization player, I had no idea what I was walking in to. Civ VI might be the most addictive game I've ever played.

If you've been enjoying almost any type of strategy game on Xbox One, such as Stellaris, Surviving Mars, or even more action-oriented games like XCOM, Halo Wars, or Mutant Year Zero, Civilization VI combines the best of several types of strategy gameplay styles at a pace almost anyone can enjoy.

Here's another game for the gamer dads out there; Civ 6 is now on the Xbox One. A turn based strategy game that you can pause anytime, which makes it perfect to play around toddlers.

Does your kid want cookies or milk or yogurt? No problem. Since it is turn based, you don't even really have to pause the game while you go about fulfilling your duties as a dad.

I'm trying to summon all my willpower right now to stop myself from buying this game. I've already bought Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order, at full price, just last week. And I don't normally buy games at full price anymore. In fact, SWJFO is the only video game I bought this year at full price. This one might be too good to pass up though. It will complement XCOM2 nicely as another turn based strategy game in my video game library.

Hmmm... maybe I can get the wife to buy it for me?
