It's basically CivRev, so it's very simple, yes. I don't mind that since if I'm playing it on an iPod (in my case) I'm on the run and can't really concentrate anyway, but ymmv.

So CivRev was good?

The facebook Civ was bad. Worse than I expected even

CivRev wasn't horrible, but it was very watered down. Sitting on my couch and playing on my XBox, it was too watered down...mostly a tactical strategy and I didn't get into the overly cartoony look and feel. I don't really play the iOS version any more, but from what I remember the simplicity worked well for the context. It lacks the immersion of a good Civ game, but you're probably not going to sit and play it until dawn on your iThingy anyway.
