Civilization Online

As a member of an organization, we can explore the procedurally generated world, craft items, make discoveries, and wage war on the remaining sides of the conflict. One of the most important features is erecting our own buildings, including the so-called Wonders, which are characteristic of the series and require cooperation of many people to be completed. The developers also thought of such varied career paths as diplomatic or military leadership. With progress, the players can become governors of cities and even rulers of entire civilizations and then issue orders to their subordinates. Such choices are often made democratically.

Similarly to the classical installments of the Civilization series, factions can develop and, over time, go through six historical eras: from antiquity, through the Renaissance, up to the present day. With each such age, many elements change— of a given culture can buy new kinds of weapons and use better means of transportation, among other things. Development also requires us to extract raw materials, which may be hindered by geographical conditions. However, valuable resources can be bought from other players or taken by force.
