“Civilization” on Facebook
Civilization - how much of this sound! In the many parts of his great game, Sid Meier always offered to watch every evolutionary step of civilization sponsored to us, “Civilization” itself evolved from game to game - but it seems that only now in its development it reached the event that could be called “ industrial revolution. This week, Sid Mayer announced that he is working on a project called “Civilization Network” - a version of the well-known game adapted to the needs of the popular social network - Facebook.
The evolutionary leap in the development of the series appeared at the very moment when the last part of the series titled “Civilization Revolution” went on sale - showing that hardcore, PC-oriented “Civilization” can harmoniously exist on modern consoles and pocket consoles.
“I wanted to inform you that soon we will be recruiting a team of beta testers who will help us develop a new approach to the game,” Meyer said on the CivFanatics.com forum site. “Since we finished work on Civilization Revolution last year. “I was thinking about how to adapt the gameplay of Civilization using the advantages that social networks can give us.”
With the new “adaptation” of his old game, Meyer, heading the Firaxis company he created, is stepping on the long-divided social media game market with serious competitors - but worth it - more than 300 million accounts have been created on Facebook alone.

Like any other game for the Facebook service, the new “Civilization” will be free, and until Sid talks about how he is going to make money. The launch of the game is scheduled for next year.
The redesigned concept of the game, millions of players as rulers of their own states and the ability to recruit the government of their state from the “Friends” tab on your Facebook page is a new evolution for the time-tested electronic entertainment.
By the way, the game has a Facebook page already!
