Humankind is a brilliant game but there has been a lot of comparisons with civilization. The civ 6 narrator had a different way of putting the storyline. Unlike other strategy games, it is based on where there is one culture and one civilization. Humankind offers you new culture as you enter any one of the 6 eras. The choices player make lead to their new societies and how you govern your empire is your decision. You might get bored if you are someone who likes to engage with characters and their back story. There is no humankind charcters backstory for you. Yes, there is adventure and battles to win and lots of enemies. Overall the agme is great with its charm not like previous strategy games.
