What’s really going to happen is exactly what’s happening here, on TA (every article but the Game of the Week last I looked and the forum thread before they were run off) and on Reddit - people are going to complain about the price and Aspyr is likely going to update the iPad version once and never again because it’s not worth it in terms of money and time, which is too bad because the game runs like a damn dream on my iPad Pro. Maybe, just maybe, Aspyr can bring some of that luster back, but I’m also an optimist with things like this. Obviously that didn’t pan out in the past and now the AppStore is a wasteland.

Then maybe people will realize that it’s a full experience and you should pay appropriately so that there might be more and better ones in the future. So, because the game has been out for a while and because mobile gamers might balk at the price, they should cut the price in half?įrom the perspective of someone who’s sick to death of never seeing anything but ports of games that are done by crap 3rd party studios and 2-5+ years old (I’m looking at you Titan Quest, most of the 2K Catalogue) or dumbed down versions of games (CivRev and it’s sequel are great examples), I’d rather they left it at $60 and only had sales in line with the computer version.

Did Aspyr get confused and think they released it on the Switch store? Folks there and on PC will gladly pay $60 for a AAA title but, as you can imagine, there are already cries of outrage over the price on the App Store as if the folks at Aspyr don’t need to eat or buy clothing. It’s currently on sale for only $30, but that will end on January 4th when it will shoot up to its Steam-sized price point. If you want the full experience, you have to unlock it with cash: $60. The game is free to download, but that will only get you the first 60 turns. As amazing as it is to have a game like Civ VI on our iPads, the truly amazing thing might be the price. If they do that, I don’t see why all the DLC currently available for the PC version wouldn’t make it to iPad as well. There is a small note on the bottom of the main menu telling you about the upcoming Rise and Fall expansion, so it would seem that they’re planning on bringing it to the app. The iPad version has everything its big brother has, with the only thing missing being DLC.

I haven’t seen it for myself to give more details, but you’ll want to download and try it out before hitting the buy button if you have one of those. I’ve also been told by Nick who has one of the 12.9″ iPad Pros that the game isn’t scaled right for that device. I was playing on a large world, but also didn’t make it all the way to the end game which is when turns get long even on the laptop. The time between turns can get a bit long, but never got to the point of being unbearable. Everything was smooth as silk, including moving units with your fingertips and scrolling around the randomly generated world. The graphics aren’t turned up all the way, but I couldn’t really tell a difference between the iPad version and how it currently looks while playing it on my MacBook Pro.

For research purposes I went to a friend’s house to mess around with the game on their iPad Pro and it was a delight.
If you do have one of the newer iPad models, however, Civ Vi on it is fairly incredible. I have none of the above, so I’ll be waiting to play this until I get a real job which, let’s be real, isn’t happening any time soon. First of all, don’t come knocking on the Civ door if your iPad is older than an Air 2 the app is only available for iPad Air 2 and later, including the iPad 2017 and iPad Pro. Instead, let’s talk about the app itself. We all know what Civilization is, so I won’t give you details about 4X games and yada, yada, yada. It’s the real deal, with a real price, and it’s on the App Store.
The one that takes days to finish a game, with full tech trees, barbarians, city states, and enough different Civs to fill a tiny UN. The one with Sid Meier in the title and Boromir doing the voice-overs. Yesterday saw one of the biggest surprise releases to ever land on the App Store, Civilization VI.
