Humankind Reviews
Civilization has a new rival, with deep evolution. Sometimes not very logic, but variable and fun.

This 4X turn-based strategy has some truly original ideas. Some of these are great, some not really, but despite some flaws, Humankind can keep players entertained for hours.

Humankind is, undeniably, a title rich in content and a great representative of its genre. However, unfortunately, its inadequate adaptation for consoles makes it just another example on the shelf of games that, perhaps, should have remained only on the PC.

If you’re looking for a more complex and unique experience, look no further. While the basics are familiar, the depths to which the game can reach are surprising. No two playthroughs will ever be similar due to the countless variations that can change, with both dlc and modding support on the way to further it. You can put a lot into Humankind and find that it still has a lot to offer.
Right now, Himankind is a good incentive for Firaxis to make the next Civilization even better than the previous ones.

When it’s at its best, Humankind represents a fascinating look at the strategy genre through the historical lens of tribal society through the space age. Amplitude’s focus on cultures and cultural affinity sets Humankind apart from games like Civilization and commitment to supporting the game with early and numerous patches and bug fixes mean that your empires will be racing towards the stars for a long time to come.
I’ve played well over 25 hours of HUMANKIND for this review and I really like the game. While the game isn’t perfect it is certainly an interesting addition to the 4x strategy genre. So to answer my question I asked at the start of this review “is it a Civ clone or does it do enough different to stand on its own?”, I would say, it isn’t an exact clone of Civilization, it has different aspects of play that makes it stand out on its own. It still needs work done on the game’s pacing in various areas. The systems in place are not too complex. Though this does mean that a player that is well versed in the 4x strategy genre will immediately feel at home with what’s on offer here. It would also be pretty easy for newcomers to the genre to pick up the game and become a great empire. HUMANKIND is a welcome addition and the developers plan on supporting it in the future, I can’t wait to see what they come up with!
Humankind may not be perfect and several improvements could be made, but it brings a breath of fresh air to the genre while arguably one of the most accessible strategy games out there.

Humankind is an incredibly addictive historical strategy title that will only get better with time.
Humankind is not a civilization killer but perhaps it doesn’t have to be. It has enough complexity and differences to stand on its own.
Humankind brings good ideas for 4X and strategy games in general, but it doesn't reach its full potential due to some shallow mechanics and some bugs. Pleasant, beautiful and easy to learn, Humankind is a title that will make you recreate the history of humanity over and over again.

The fame score system is a bit disappointing, but Humankind has enough immersion to revive his passion for 4X games.

There’s a lot of potential in Humankind, and hopefully the developers will keep working on the game, but right now it’s still only a pretender to the Civilization throne.
Fun and very addictive, but not quite rounded because it fails to deliver on its main points.

Humankind is a strategy game introduces us on the governor's skin with all things implicate that, all choices of politic, law, society and other, and not only resources assignment. It has his cons like but rate and improvable battle, but on the contrary it has many options process alleviates his defects. On a artistic level the game looks like realistic, but casual due to his colourful

Amplitude has pulled a worthy Civilization competitor up its sleeve. It has its drawbacks, but it certainly also has enough of a personality of its own to take on Firaxis' game on its own turf. The choice of civilization in each era, and the simultaneous turns are huge additions.

Humankind is a refreshing and authentic take on the historical 4X strategy subgenre, albeit with some balancing problems that keep it from greatness.
