[quote name='SL4IN']I have some interest in Civ Rev for the ds, but have never played a Civ game. what are they like?[/QUOTE]
They're very SimCity-like, but a lot lighter on the building elements. There's other nations building alongside you in the world, and you create alliances or go to war with them. Your Civilization progresses over time from using hand carts and stone spears to eventually launching space shuttles. It's bascially a world conquest type game, if you want it to be. You could just try to progress and create a peaceful civilization as well. Very addicting on the PC from what I've played.
