OK with base game.
Pretty good with all expansions.
Fantastic with Vox Populi mod.

CIV V is my favorite turn-based strategy game that I have played to date. It really works your brain having to consider so many variables and how your decisions are turn 23 will impact your game 50 some turns down the road. It has its fair share of bugs, especially when trying to play multiplayer games, however. Most of the time that is not an issue though. It is also great to play whether you are playing singleplayer or with friends (other than them taking FOREVER to end their turns). I do wish the DLC was less expensive though, it really makes a difference to have the DLC since it improves the gameplay a lot and I wish it were easier to obtain for new players.
