ABOUT CivGovernment

A civilization game run by redditors through democratic vote! Feel free to join the discussion!

Civilization has many ways it can be played, and one of the more innovative ways it has been played is not being played at all. /u/tpangolin and many others have contributed to a game where the AI is playing versus itself while Reddit watches, makes bets and cheers for their favorite civilization. It is an example of emergent gameplay. That is essentially what this is too.

There is a subreddit known as /r/CBRModelWorldCongress/ that acts as a world congress for the AI game, but it is limited to being unable to affect what is actually in the game. In response, and for the love of that sub, I have decided to run a game where everyone chooses how the player civilization acts, democratically. We all vote, we all decide, and then we all tell the proxy who is streaming the game how to use their turn. It originally was to be one civilization in a single-player game run democratically like /r/democraciv, but the people have spoken and wish to have multiple teams and multiple forms of goverment (and not all of them strictly democratic).
