Actually my final advice is: wait next Steam sale and get Civ <n> GOTY very cheap. Meanwhile buy Alpha Centauri + expansion for lousy $5.50 http://www.amazon.com/Meiers-Centauri-Complete-Crossfire-Expansion-Pc/dp/B002OH8U0Y It still is superior in many aspects to any Civ (5th including). Graphics is 2D but does not insult eyes. With coupla changes in .ini file the game runs on any Windows system (on 8th too), and expands gamefield to any screen resolution. There are also full-conversion mods. -- Andrew Rybenkov
