The functionality to rename settlements within the iOS version of Civilization VI allows players to customize their gameplay experience by imbuing their virtual empires with a personal touch. For example, a player might rename a newly founded city near a mountain range to “Summit City,” reflecting its geographical location. This customization option provides an added layer of immersion.
The ability to personalize city nomenclature enhances strategic gameplay by facilitating easier identification and management of urban centers. It allows players to create a more memorable and easily navigable game world, particularly beneficial in later stages of the game with a large number of cities. Historically, the power to name places has represented control and ownership, mirroring real-world geopolitical strategies within the game’s framework.
