About

OpenCiv is a love letter to turn-based strategy games inspired by Sid Meier’s Civilization. The game mainly focuses on Civ 5 features and strives to improve on certain aspects that were lacking in the series.

The main objective of this project is to allow players who enjoy Civilization games to play it directly on a web browser.
