Civilization V

Polynesia!
Date played: November 1st
Platform: PC
Session fun rating: 9/10

I felt like playing Civ so I booted up the game and played through one scenario. I was the leader of an island tribe and had to gain enough culture to unlock all the social policies before the competing nations. It was my first time playing a scenario like this and there was some really cool stuff. Custom civilizations, custom items and units, some water travel for all units and weird tech trees and other small tweaks. I eventually lost on normal difficulty but I'm not sure what I could have done better. There are limited ressources on the small island filled map and war was never a part of the equation. Maybe I made too many cities? I don't know but I still enjoyed myself.
