Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.86/day in the week to Sep 3 → 1.29/day in the week after.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.71/day in the week to Jul 25 → 0.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

bought it on sale for my crappy windows 11 laptop. works great.
Civ 4 is the best Civ edition for many reasons. Always will be based on the downward trend of it's successors.
Overall, this is my all-time favorite Civilization game. While I do prefer the hexagon maps of the later games, this one just clicks and flows for me, and it is also made better with the voicework of Leonard Nimoy. Just such a great, and still epic game.

Classic. You can't beat Leonard Nimoy doing the voice-over.
This is an original classic for gamers who love turn based strategy. TRY IT. You will like it. Other Civilizations lack, some give more. Civ 4 is the sweet spot.
I'm sorry, but this game is for mentally challenged people. If you've got more than two braincells, you probably won't like this game.
Try civlilzation IV well it's good because the graphics are good, gameplay is good, many more it's like civilization III but better!
this game is awesome i haven't personally played much but one of the people i share this account with does and i love this game and find it fun so you can imagine how a person who probably put in 550 of the 556.9 hrs as of writing this loved this game i disagree because i love total war warhammer and conquest of eleysium but he says it's the best game of its genre
This civ has one of the most iconic main menu songs of the entire series. I decided to give the older civ games a try again, and of course they are still addicting. I played until I won. Took two tries.
