I get the appeal of simplicity,but why not try newer-but-still-simple Civ like Revolutions or something?

Revolutions was too simple for my taste.

Yes, but we're talking about Civ 1. Civ 1 is also much simpler than the modern games. Revolutions I thought was a good distilling of the Civ mechanics.

Civ 1 still felt deeper to me then rev. It was ok, but I would have preferred a mobile version of Civ 1 instead.
