Also, this is only the second classic Microprose game to be released on GOG (first being Darklands). Hopefully this means Civilizations will be finally added, or some really forgotten games like Sword of Samurai.

If you don't want to spend even as much as that, try FreeCol - a free fan-made remake that's now very close to the original but with a much more usable and informative interface.

For Civilization, there are at least two free fully playable fan-made remakes: Freeciv and C-evo.

Find links to them all, with other info, on the Civilization Games Wiki: http://civilization.wikia.com - where there may even be links to free versions of the official Civ and Col games
