Board to Death TV reviews Through the Ages: A Story of Civilization. Steve gives it 8.5, and Felicia 7.5 out of 10 and they summarize the game thusly.

What's Cool:
You really go through all the ages from Moses to Albert.
It's a very strategic game with nothing really random to it.
Great Production quality.
Each player has his own board.
The summary cards are very useful.
The rule book is good with lots of examples and good explanations.

What's Not:
The player turns can sometimes be long.
It's hard to catch up if you are a failing civilization.
A lot of things to remember.
It's hard to teach new players.

Neutral Information:
It's a board game version of the XBOX game: Civilization.
