🌍️ Wikipedia :
Freeciv est un jeu vidéo de stratégie au tour par tour, libre, copiant la plupart des concepts du jeu commercial Civilization dans lequel chacun des joueurs devient le chef d'une civilisation, luttant pour parvenir au but : devenir la plus grande civilisation.
Freeciv est développé et maintenu par une communauté internationale de codeurs libres et de fans pour enrichir le jeu original Civilization. Il fonctionne sous Amiga, Linux, Mac OS et Windows.
Description
Les joueurs prennent le rôle du chef d'une nation, depuis l'an 4000 av. J.-C., et doivent guider leur peuple à travers les siècles. Avec le temps, de nouvelles avancées scientifiques émergent, ce qui permet la construction de bâtiments et la formation de nouvelles unités guerrières (ainsi que diplomates, explorateurs…). Les joueurs peuvent se livrer à des guerres sans fin ou former des alliances diplomatiques plus complexes.
La partie peut s'achever lorsque l'un des joueurs éradique tous les autres, ou s'il colonise l'espace, ou à une date donnée (l'an 2000 par exemple) — auquel cas la civilisation avec le plus haut score gagne. Les points attribués dépendent de la taille de la civilisation, de sa prospérité, de ses avancées scientifiques et culturelles.
Système de jeu
Freeciv s'avère très configurable, et peut utiliser différents systèmes de règles : Civilization I, Civilization II ou le mode Freeciv, ce dernier faisant partie des règles les plus populaires. Les graphismes et les sons peuvent être remplacés ; quant aux premiers, ils peuvent être isométriques ou en deux dimensions ou encore hexagonaux.
Freeciv est conçu pour le réseau, les parties multijoueurs. Les joueurs se connectent à un serveur, en réseau local ou sur internet, et jouent entre eux avec optionnellement des intelligences artificielles.
Un ou plusieurs joueurs agissent comme administrateurs et peuvent configurer les règles du jeu. Des règles typiquement modifiées sont :
• nombre de joueurs requis ;
• vitesse du développement technologique ;
• présence ou non de joueurs contrôlés par ordinateur ;
• présence ou non de barbares envahissant les civilisations ;
• proximité des villes ;
• distribution des îles et continents.
Les joueurs humains jouent simultanément, puis les intelligences artificielles (s'il y en a) et ainsi de suite.
CivWorld est un éditeur de cartes, libre lui aussi.

🌍️ Wikipedia :
Freeciv is a single, and multiplayer, Turn-Based strategy game for workstations and personal computers inspired by the commercial proprietary Sid Meier's Civilization series. It is available for most desktop computer operating systems. Released under the GNU General Public License, Freeciv is free and open source software. The game's default settings are closest to Civilization II, in both gameplay and graphics (including the units and the isometric grid).
Freeciv is playable online at freecivweb.org
Players take the role of tribal leaders in 4000 B.C. who must guide their peoples through the centuries. Over time, new technologies are discovered, which allow the construction of new city buildings and the deployment of new units. Players can wage war on one another or form diplomatic relationships.
The game ends when one civilization has eradicated all others or accomplished the goal of space colonization, or at a given deadline. If more than one civilization remains at the deadline, the player with the highest score wins. Points are awarded for the size of a civilization, its wealth, and cultural and scientific advances.

Design
Freeciv is very configurable, down to the specific rules, so it can be played in Freeciv (default) mode, Civilization mode, Civilization II mode, or a custom mode. One or several players act as game administrators and can configure the game rules. Typically modified rules are:
• Number of players required before the game can be started. The maximum number of players is 126 in the latest version of Freeciv.
• Speed of technological development
• Whether there should be computer controlled players
• Whether (computer controlled) barbarians should invade player settlements
• How close cities can be built to one another
• How continents and islands are generated and distributed over the map
• The map size, where the maximum map size is 2,048,000 map tiles (128,000 before 2.4.0)
• Map topology (rectangular or hexagonal tiling; whether it wraps horizontally and/or vertically)
In order to play a game of Freeciv, a user must start up a Freeciv client and connect it to a Freeciv server. Initially, the server is in pre-game phase; in this phase, clients can connect and game configuration parameters can be changed. At some point, the server may be ordered to start a game; in response, it creates game players (nations) and the game map, and assigns every player to either a Freeciv client or a computer player, as specified by the configuration. From that point on, the game will run until it ends or is terminated; the server can never get back into pre-game state. The user can also start a game directly from the client: this automatically starts a Freeciv server, connects to it and starts the game.
Features

Freeciv's graphics system is configurable: originally, map display was always in overhead mode (like in Civ I). Isometric mode (like in Civ II and III) and optionally hexagonal tiling (like in Civ V and VI) were added later. In both modes, look can be further customized by switching to an alternative set of graphics (called a tileset). The sounds can be replaced as well. Freeciv supports human-to-human multiplayer gameplay and artificial intelligence (AI) computer players. While the game is turn based, human players move simultaneously. The AI players move separately, partly at the start of a turn, partly at the end.
In releases before 2.0, AI players could not engage in diplomatic relationships with human players. Under the current releases, AI players will engage in a very predictable, rules-based diplomacy. Version 2.2.0 included a map editor, termed Civworld. It can create new scenarios, as well as edit the map currently being played. Basic scripting is available with Freeciv, but is not available in Civworld. Version 2.3 increased the limit of players from 30 to 126.
There are different clients available SDL, GTK+ (version3) and Xaw3D A Qt client was added in version 2.5. The Freeciv interface is available in over 30 different languages. The addition of Gaelic was covered on BBC TV.
Ports and variants
Originally developed on IRIX, Freeciv has been ported to many different operating systems: it is distributed with many Linux distributions, offers installers for Microsoft Windows, and has been known to run on Mac OS X, MorphOS, Solaris, Ultrix, QNX, OS/2, Cygwin, AmigaOS, AROS, RISC OS, Maemo, ZETA, SkyOS, various BSDs, and smartphones and tablets running Android.
As of version 2.4, Mac OS X, and as of version 2.3, Windows versions older than Windows XP SP3 are no longer supported. Freeciv is available in the PortableApps format.
Freeciv-web

Freeciv-web is a version of Freeciv playable online in any modern web browser. It supports 2D isometric graphics or 3D graphics using WebGL. The game is a fork of the Freeciv project, with the goal of redesigning the desktop game into a version which can be played online. Freeciv-web introduced several new features, such as play-by-email support freely available to anyone online, and support for playing the game on any real-world map location by choosing a map using Mapbox, which is not available in commercial games in the genre. The game's default settings are closest to Civilization II, both in gameplay and graphics (including the units and the isometric grid). The proposal to create a web-version of Freeciv was made 6 April 2007 on the Freeciv mailing lists, and documented on the Freeciv.org wiki. Freeciv-web was originally created by Andreas Røsdal, but is now maintained by several Freeciv developers on GitHub.
Freeciv-web is free and open source software. The Freeciv C server is released under the GNU General Public License, while the Freeciv-web client is released under the GNU Affero General Public License. Freeciv-web supports human-to-human multiplayer gameplay and artificial intelligence (AI) computer players. Its features are similar to the Freeciv C client, although not all of the user-interface has been ported from the C client yet.
The Freeciv-web server on play.freeciv.org was shut down in March 2018, but the project was revived by a group of volunteers on freecivweb.org. Freeciv-web can be played online at a number of servers such as freecivweb.org. All the features required to play a full game of Freeciv are in place. Most servers offer multiple varieties of the game: single-player, multiplayer free-for-all, play-by-email and longturn.
Longturn variants
Freeciv Longturn is a specialized large-group-multiplayer-online-strategy variant of Freeciv featuring daylong game turns with large amounts of human opponents per map, allowing for optimal timing to build up strategic plans and readapt them to the circumstances of each turn. Matches can last anytime from a few weeks to months, and commonly involve 20 to 30 players in each one.
Longturn's first game, now called LT0, started around 2004 on the Polish Civilization fanpage civ.org.pl and is now conducted at Longturn.net. It was decided that the game is a bit too slow-paced, so a new "3X movement" ruleset was devised – basically, all units had their movement points and vision radius tripled. As of April 2020, the latest game was LT53. Changes to settings or rulesets are discussed in the Longturn forum.
Greatturn was a similar concept on another server. FreeCivWeb.org also offers longturn games (more than fifty have been played before mid-2021) with a multiplayer ruleset which is documented in great details
Power of Planets - Earth (formerly known as GaCivs) is a free-to-play MMO-RTS variant based on FreeCiv. The ruleset was devised to support long-term time-based gameplay instead of turn-based strategy.
