## What it is
Unciv is an open-source, moddable remake of Civilization V built with Kotlin and LibGDX, playable on Android and desktop platforms. It offers a lightweight, fast 4X strategy experience that runs on low-end hardware.

## Use cases
- play a free open-source Civilization V-like 4X strategy game
- play Civ V on Android or a low-end PC
- mod a 4X game's rules, nations, and units
- play turn-based strategy offline on a potato computer
- install a civ game from F-Droid, Flathub, or Homebrew

## When to choose
- you want a free, FOSS alternative to Civilization V
- you need a 4X game that runs on weak hardware or Raspberry Pi
- you want a highly moddable turn-based strategy game
- you want to play on both mobile and desktop

## When to avoid
- you want high-resolution graphics, animations, and soundtracks
- you want an exact replica of Civ V with all its content
- you need multiplayer AAA polish or official Firaxis support
