Play-by-Cloud Style Multiplayer for Civilization VII

"Play-by-Cloud" is one of several names for games where moves are passed between players automatically rather than in a live session. c7pbm offers a Play-by-Cloud-style workflow for Civilization VII using Hotseat save files.

What "Play-by-Cloud" means

In play-by-cloud, each player's next move is delivered to them, so nobody has to gather for a real-time match. It's essentially asynchronous multiplayer with automatic delivery of each turn.

c7pbm's approach

c7pbm is an independent service, not an official Civilization, Firaxis, or 2K feature. It provides a similar save-passing workflow for Civ VII: you play your turn and upload it, and the next player's turn is delivered to their saves folder automatically.

  • Built on Civilization VII's normal Hotseat save files.
  • No mod required.
  • No need for both players to be online at once.
