GameSpot's Civilization III Play the World impressions are based on attending an Infogrames press event, where they got to see the upcoming Civ3 add-on in action. They describe some of the problems that the developers at Firaxis need to overcome in implementing the multiplayer support the add-on brings, since turn-based strategy games involve so much down-time for players waiting for others to plot out their movement, and Civ3 games tend to be fairly lengthy. They also go into enhancements being made to the single-player campaign, including the addition of eight new civilizations, new wonders, new features, and more. They cap things off describing some graphical improvements and features offered by the bundled editing program.
