Another game which could be of high interested for the Civ community has been released: Ozymandias: Bronze Age Empire Sim.
As the title hints, this game is a civ-like game, set in the bronze age (so more similar to Old World). So this is a turn-based 4X game in a historical setting. You can build cities, build wonders (although more in an achievement-type manner), and use your armies to conquer your enemies.
The game has a lot simpler graphics than any of its contenders like Humankind or Old World, but all hardware requirements are minimal, allowing it to be played also on older computers.
Right now there is a 20% discount, and the game only costs 11.99€ instead of 14.99€.
A free demo is available too, in case you want to test before you buy.
