"Civilization" has a steep learning curb. At first it didn't seem so bad. I really liked the primative music and started setting workers to tasks like creating irrigation, etc.
Then I started exploring. Leaping into the darkness to illuminate more of the surrondings, getting further & further from "Rome." I noticed fish in the water off the coast and started working on figuring out "who" could catch them and "how." I was the stereotypical "noob" who didn't even notice that I should have been simultaneously watching my back.
Suddenly a warning popped up with a vivid shot of my city on fire! Black smoke billowing, while I impotently tried to "fix" it. That was when I decided I had had enough.....and went to bed.

Cindy-These gaming experiences can be a bit stressful. I think I know the feeling you got when your civilization went up in smoke and warnings started flashing on your screen. A similar thing happened to me while I was playing SimCity. My whole city went up in flames and I didn't know what to do to get my city back to good. In general I think I do like gaming though and would play more if I had enough time.
ReplyDeleteAmen! Maybe after I finally finish this degree, I can find the time to play games.
