Call to power really was a "let's throw everything in there and the kitchen sink." No other civ game has approached it's sheer amount of random unbalanced shit crammed into it. Not even alpha centari or beyond earth.

It's a shame they never made a second one, I remember it being pretty good.

All games were good when I was that age though....

They did. It wasn't quite as good ( awful UI iirc ), but still a decent game. You can get it on gog too

I'm torn between whether they meant they didn't know there was a second game or if it's like me saying it's too bad there was never a second Matrix movie.

Or Jurassic Park or the Star Wars trilogy. It really is a shame.

More like "RTS is on the rise and we need to grab some of that dorito-stained cash".

I love that game, I still play it all the time. It's one of my absolute favorites.
