Love your strategy games and a bit of Sid Meier? You're in luck as Humble Bundle have something new up giving you plenty of the Civilization series. Some of the titles come with native Linux support but it's probable most will just work with Proton now too.

Here's what you can get:

  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI (native)
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI: Gathering Storm
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI: Rise and Fall
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI - Vikings Scenario Pack
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI - Poland Civilization & Scenario Pack
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI - Australia Civilization & Scenario Pack
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI - Persia and Macedon Civilization & Scenario Pack
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI - Nubia Civilization & Scenario Pack
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI - Khmer & Indonesia Double Civilization & Scenario Pack
  • + New Frontier Pass discount coupon
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth™ - The Collection (native)
  • Sid Meier’s Civilization V: The Complete Edition (native)
  • Sid Meier's Pirates!
  • Sid Meier's Civilization IV: The Complete Edition
  • Sid Meier's Civilization III: Complete
  • Sid Meier's Starships
  • Sid Meier's Railroads!
  • Sid Meier’s Ace Patrol: Pacific Skies
  • Sid Meier’s Ace Patrol
  • Sid Meier's Colonization (Classic)
  • Sid Meier's Covert Action (Classic)

You need to pay at least £11.09 for the full bundle, which is actually an awesome deal considering the contents. If I didn't already own the main games, I would grab this happily myself.

Check out the full bundle if interested.

Hmmm . . . I have V and VI, but I don't have IV or III, and my copy of II is lost in the mists of time. And I don't have any of the VI DLCs, although that's mostly because I don't really like VI all that much. Still, all in all, this might be quite worth it. Hey wait, II isn't in the bundle! Oh well. Still might be worth it for III and IV and a couple of the other things.
(VI is interesting, but in the end I found the whole district thing to be just a bit more irritating than it was fun, especially in the later game dealing with tradeoffs between housing and food production. Maybe because of that, maybe not, I find when I reach for a Civ fix I'm clicking on V instead of VI)

this does seem like a good deal, but these days I find it hard to read anything past "humble bundle"

Civilizations games are time sucker and you have to play a lot to master them, so honestly, I can't imagine someone buying those bundles and then *really play* all the titles inside them.
Sure, I would really like to have the time to play bundles like this, but honestly, who the hell in the world has?

Also, a lot of times you see bundles made to sell quantity over quality and even if this isn't the case at all, I only see users buying quantity here; why? To increase their collection?

I guess you may be interested only in part of the bundle and still go to get everything because it is still a good deal, then you can just sell the "shrinkage" in a gray market (hoping to use the right noun).

Quoting: kokoko3kCivilizations games are time sucker and you have to play a lot to master them, so honestly, I can't imagine someone buying those bundles and then *really play* all the titles inside them.

Civilization games share a large number of core concepts, so once you know one, it's much easier to learn another. This is even more true if the game you know is one of the recent ones, since the games tend to grow in complexity over time (which is not a good thing in my opinon, but I guess they must always add new things for marketing reasons).

I guess the audience for such a bundle are young people (since they tend to have more free time than older people with a job, a husband/wife, kids, pets, whatever...) who got into the Civilization boat recently with V or VI.
