Call to Power (1999) took the #Civilization formula and dared to go beyond. Underwater cities, space colonies, and futuristic warfare. ππ°οΈ
Often overlooked, but its ambitious vision of the future still stands out.
If you like alt-history and deep #strategy, it's worth rediscovering.

Still one of the most visionary #scifi #strategy #games ever made: Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

If you love 4X, deep lore, and tough choices, this #classic is a must-play.
