Sid Meier's Civilization V [Mac] is the award-winning turn-based strategy game that lets you build an empire from the dawn of history to the space age. Lead a legendary civilization, explore an unknown world, found cities, research technologies, master diplomacy, and wage wars that reshape the map. With its elegant interface and deep “one more turn” pacing, Civilization V is a must-play 4X strategy experience on Mac.

Create a civilization that lasts: choose from iconic leaders, each with unique abilities, units, and buildings. Expand your borders, manage happiness and resources, and develop your economy through trade, production, and smart city planning.

Strategic warfare with hex-based tactics: command armies on a hex grid where positioning matters. Combine ranged and melee units, control terrain, and outmaneuver rivals with carefully timed offensives and defensive lines.

Diplomacy, culture, and victory paths: negotiate alliances, sign research agreements, influence city-states, and compete for global dominance. Pursue multiple win conditions—Science, Culture, Domination, or Diplomacy—so every campaign tells a different story.
