Description:

Not a conversion Mod. Requires Gaia’s Core Mod.

Sapiens is a huge overhaul mod that adds extra content and depth to nearly every aspect of CiV, offering a vastly increased variety in playstyles and approaches, and with significant changes to the underlying code to improve stability. Sapiens aims to provide a truly epic and memorable CiV experience without being too imbalanced, whether you want to conquer the world with your guns or your art, or race to the stars.

To be used jointly with More Art Mod for best results.
Important Installation Instructions and Troubleshooting

1) Delete the contents in the following folders:
