Editing Civilization (1980 board game) (section)

==Adaptations==
''[[Incunabula (video game)|Incunabula]]'' was the first computer emulation of the board game by Avalon Hill (1984, for MS-DOS). Besides the main game, it included two shorter variants, one eliminating trade and one that includes only trade.

''[[Avalon Hill's Advanced Civilization]]'' was a 1995 MS-DOS computer version of the board game, incorporating the Advanced Civilization expansion. The rules were slightly modified from the board game for computer play.

A projected sequel of the ''Civilization'' board game in the ages after antiquity drove the development of ''[[Age of Renaissance]]'', published by [[Avalon Hill]] in 1996. This game, designed for 3 to 6 players, has kept only a few features of '''Civilization'', such as commodities (no longer collectible cards but territories) and the civilization advances (no longer cards but ticks in a check list).

''Civilization'' is also well-known as the core inspiration behind [[Sid Meier]]'s [[Civilization (video game)|computer game of the same name]], which would itself act as the progenitor of the wider 4X genre.
