Sid Meier's Civilization V [Mac] is the award-winning turn-based strategy game that lets you build an empire and guide it from the dawn of humanity to the space age. Choose a civilization, found your first city, and shape history through diplomacy, trade, culture, religion, espionage, and war. Every decision matters as you explore an ever-changing world, negotiate with rival leaders, and race for technological breakthroughs.

With its accessible interface and deep strategic systems, Civilization V is perfect for both newcomers and veteran 4X fans. Expand your borders, manage resources, develop powerful social policies, and create world wonders that define your legacy. The iconic hex-based map and one-unit-per-tile combat add new tactical depth, turning every battle into a careful puzzle of positioning, terrain, and combined arms.

Play your way: pursue a Science Victory by launching a spaceship, dominate with a Military Victory, influence the world through a Cultural Victory, or unite nations with a Diplomatic Victory. Whether you’re planning long-term growth or reacting to sudden threats, each match tells a new story—one more turn at a time.
