Civilization Revolution 2 delisted from the Google play store
Firaxis has announced on Twitter that CivRev2 is not anymore listed in the Google play store.
This means you cannot newly buy the game, but as long as it is installed you can still play it.
Curiously this does not apply to the iOS app store, where it is still available.

CivFanatics Whatsapp channel
We are trying our best to be at all the places where Civ fans are, so now we have decided to also add an Whatsapp channel to our repertoire.
Whatsapp channels are essentially giant groups, where only the admins can write, and other users can react to the messages.
We will be using this Whatsapp channel to post the news items, which we also put on social media.
So if you want to have the latest Civ news straight to your phone, then join the Whatsapp channel.
The channel link: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vaj7i2o8KMqspPxi7U27
To note: In a Whatsapp channel everyone is anonymous. Nobody can see another phone number, also not admins or owners, unless you have the phone number independently in your phone book already.
If you want to discuss the whatsapp channel with us, then check this thread.
