Dinosaurs was a cool idea, but we just couldnt find a way to make it really fun. Weve got a bunch of great game ideas that we want to bring to life over the next several years.
Our approach to making games is to find the fun first and then use the technology to enhance the fun.
I think we got the diplomacy just about right the first time, but we've added new graphics, units, and technologies for the new Civs.
Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master.
The new Pirates! builds on that legacy delivering an even more powerful and fun experience to players... and is still unmatched in offering a blend of genres in one great game.
We'd love to do Pirates for the 21st century. People have also asked about Colonization, and a few others.
