man, that would have taken ages to make. guess the dude who makes this must have a day job that really sucks. either that or he programmed this while pretending to do work at his day job ;]

Robin, and DreamWeaver-generated javascripts make kind of a bitter soup..

its good to know my IIgs and 486 can finally be replaced with some AJAX app. i bet its almost as fast, too..

Um… Wow!

Technically, it’s an impressive thing to do, but it’s slightly overkill! I’ve seen small-scale Castle Wolfenstein’s and basic games, but Civ is a HUGE game to clone.

A++ for effort
D for usability (despite the wealth of info available, the speed of it all drags the game down).

I think the game is excellent. A bit buggy and sometimes slow. The server has just gone down. But for all that, online multiplayer strategy gaming for free through a browser. cool!

I wonder how much resources that would take up. I know if i even ATTEMPTED to put an Ajax game on my site, my hosting company would shut me down in a second.
