Ah, New World Computing… synonymous in my mind with vaguely incongruent art direction, an absolutely unrestrained amount of pillow shading, and just enough almost-imperceptibly incompatible perspective lines to give you a slight feeling of unease while playing the game.
I really need to look into getting Civ 2 running. Maybe just set up an old VM for it. Civ 3 was probably my favorite, but there were a lot of concepts I didn’t understand until playing 3 and I’d be curious to see how I fare in 2 now. Plus I love that old aesthetic of games with a user interface like every other program on Windows.

It is both

Just seeing the main image in the post, immediately made me think of Lands of Lore!
Lands of Lore… A certified Westwood Classic. With a neat tie to Command and Conquer.
Fucking loved this game!
