Steam review snapshots
Basically Civilization in a card game, where all the upkeep involved with boardgames is done for you.Like the original, it works well at all player counts, and you can play solo against easy-up-to-hard bots, and the hard bots…It just makes each game super unique and there is always new things to explore.Playing with friends is fun and easy, the bots are programmed extremely well with a great difficulty progression, and there are plenty…Why it fits
Check it if you want strategy filtered by weird, single-player.
