Really fun to play with mates after I got home from school but these days it has far less complexity than your standard Civ title and there's not any reason to go and boot your 7th gen consoles up to play it again. Functionally not horrible however, I think it was a good substitute for console players and it's given me a lot of fun and good memories, undoubtedly.
I may be the person who has played this game the most on the planet. Or at least top 0.1%. it is a forgotten entry in the Civ series but one that I love dearly - it was my first ever turn based strategy game and whilst it is overly simple at times it is a great "casual" strategy experience. I have cheesed so many deity victories and seen everything that the game has to offer but I would love if they made another (real) sequel - Sid Meier's if you're reading this I have ideas please talk to me baby...
I also want to mention the fantastic music and art styles, I'm happy Civ 6 went a bit cartoony as it felt similar to this one in tone.

I still play this with my friends now and then. It's super fun and charming, and it was nice that they kinda made it a little more accessible for people like me that have two brain cells and can't really play turn-based strategy games.
Only reason I don't have a rating for it is because when we play it, I'm not usually the one holding the controller.
