How to Play a Civilization Game

I always like conquest or time which just means my civilization has the most points at the end from all the wonders I've built in my cities. When I was younger I didn't do very well even on the easier difficulties because I would just do my best to get my tech up. The second one I played for many, many years and when three I found three eventually and took up with it. You could choose how your cities were designed and your capital and all that. Even if you choose the American president you could have it done in the style of Roman or Egyptian perhaps Chinese architecture for your cities. All the cities kind of look the same in the newer ones.
