Civilization V, like any iteration of the Civilization series, puts the player as a well known historical ruler of their empire. The mechanics are easy to learn and most certainly hard to master. Recommended for those who enjoy strategy games and are willing to waste potentially hundreds of hours clicking "next turn" for just "one more turn".

This DLC is much cheapers than most other Crusder Kings: II DLC, but it is very much worht it. It helps to flesh out your ruler's life and add some basic mechanics such as "seduction" and setting an ambition of sorts. Recommended for those who are looking to seduce whomever they want in the game, including the Pope.

Now, this DLC adds council voting power. Those vassals that you kept for strats but still hated you can now exact their revenge. Wanna change any minor law? Now the council can vote for or against it. This helps balance out part of the game, to some, or ruin it, for others. Recommended for those looking for a more accurate portrayl of medieval politics, but also looking for a wonderfully angering game.
