Ah, Civ 1. 😍
Civ 2 is my favourite Civilisation, but they never made big box PC games in such enormous majestic packaging as they did with the original.... 🫢👇

Slaithwaite is an interesting place crammed Video Game Easter eggs for the curious eye😅
In the beginning
The Earth was without form and void.
But the sun shone upon the sleeping Earth
And deep inside the brittle crust
Massive forces waited to be unleashed.
The seas parted
And great continents were formed.
The continents shifted, mountains arose,
...
Earthquakes spawned massive tidal waves,
Volcanoes erupted,
And spewed forth fiery lava,
And charged the atmosphere with strange gasses.
Into this startling maelstrom
Of fire, air, and water,
The first stirrings of life appeared:
Tiny organisms, cells, and amoeba.
...
Clinging to tiny sheltered habitats.
But the seeds of life grew
And strengthened, and spread,
And diversified, and prospered.
And soon every continent and climate
Teemed with life.
And with life came instinct,
And specialization, natural selection
...
And finally there evolved a species
Known as man (*)
And there appeared the first faint glimmers of intelligence.
The fruits of intelligence were many:
Fire, tools, and weapons,
The hunt, farming, and the sharing of food,
The family, the village, and the tribe.
...
Now it required but one more ingredient:
A great leader to unite the quarrelling tribes,
To harness the power of the land,
To build a legacy that would stand the test of time:
A Civilization.
