more I don’t know if the problem is with the Tahoe beta or with the new multiplayer feature - but I am completely unable to play this game anymore. The option for a single player game no longer exists that I can find, and trying to select anything on the menus with my mouse requires hovering half an inch below the menu option I want to click. Very disappointing, but it IS Aspyr.

This one is just not for me. I love 2, 3 4, and 5. This one was just not for me.

This is an awesome game. I think I like it better than Civ 7. This latest release still doesn’t fix LAN game creation for me. The app still freezes as soon as I click on Local Network.

With AI coding you would think Aspyr could fix this crashing problem but no, they want you to buy Civ 7 that only plays on M Macs. Given how horrible their support for Civ 6 has been only a fool would spend money on Civ 7 even if you have a M processor Mac.
