Sid Meier’s Civilization VI
About
The sixth installment in Sid Meier’s Civilization series. Like in all previous Civilization games, the player controls one of eighteen unique historical civilizations, builds its cities, explores the hexagonal map of the world, researches technologies, develops his country's culture, establishes relationships with other civilizations and wages wars. All the traditional victory types are in place, and a new one, religious, is introduced.
A distinct new feature in the sixth part is that city improvements are no more concentrated in each city's only main tile. Instead, they are distributed throughout its whole surrounding area. Each of them is now considered a "district" with a specific purpose, and some of them should be built only on specific terrain. Similarly, wonders now occupy tiles on their own. Technology tree was also modified to take into account the player's terrain improvements that may speed up the research of certain technologies. Cultural achievements, such as Opera or Drama, are no more considered "technologies" and form a separate Civics research tree instead. Also, unlike most of its predecessors, Civilization VI allows stacking similar types of military units.

Sid Meier’s Civilization VI reviews and comments
On PC though, excellent. Just a great entry in the series.
For a starter, the game is hugely complex and the tutorial doesn't offer great help either. Had it started with a simple UI and limited options and then expand to more complex features, it might have been a different story. Could be a fine turn based game, but I for one am not a fan of a game which fails to stick even after 4 hours of game play. The game just misses that stickiness factor.
