Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Rise and Fall Reviews
The intricacies added to Rise and Fall bring out the best of Civ, especially to make it a much more thoughtful play through.
It is clear that after Rise and Fall expansion, Civilization VI is now a better game. Most of the new introduced mechanisms are interesting and potentially revolutionary. However, in the existing implementation, their influence on gameplay is limited and insufficient. I hope that developers finally have success in conveying the real feeling of civilization's rise and fall in upcoming expansions or versions

All in all, the best part about Civilization VI Rise and Fall is that it now truly feels like you’re able to play and win on your own terms. Military might isn’t the only option and winning through science and religious means is even more satisfying.
Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Rise and Fall improves the game in all the right ways. Its biggest failing is that despite many changes, it surprisingly plays just like the original game.

If you have wasted great gobs of your life playing Civ 6, or feel like you have figured it out, this is a good expansion to make you rethink a game you thought you knew.
The biggest problem with Civilization VI: Rise and Fall is that it's not a really big expansion. The new features are nice, but they don't fundamentally change the game. The new bonuses and civilizations are fun, and overall, they don't detract from the experience. At the same time, it's hard to call it essential. In addition, there are a handful of new features, particularly Loyalty, which detract from the game without adding much to it. There's no real reason to go for Rise and Fall unless you're a huge Civ VI nut who needs more content. The line between expansion and DLC is thin, and Rise and Fall lands right on the line. It's worth buying if you want more Civilization, but casual players may want to wait for a price drop or a meatier expansion.
As the first expansion of Civilization VI, Rise and Fall has done everything we hoped for. with 8 new leaders and many more features, Rise and Fall not only diversifies base gameplay, but resolves many of its issues.
