Since this requires some files from the original Civilization how do people obtain legal copies of the game? It's not available on Steam or GOG<p>(Or am I being hopelessly naïve by asking such a question?)
You go on eBay or similar site and you pay for a used copy on floppy or CD-ROM. Then using the appropriate tool you back those files up and use them for OpenCiv 1. Cheap, no. Convenient, no. But legal.<p>If you're lucky you stumble across it in a thrift store that wasn't paying particular attention and assumed it was a puzzle or a board game.
> The game logic is Based on original DOS Civilization 1 game version 475.05 disassembly.<p>Love more details on how this was done and the translation to human-readable code.
