News::Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth (2014) Review | FilmGamesEtc

The Civilization games have always been synonymous with the phrase one more turn, but early previews of the latest entry in the series had prompted many fans to question if one more iteration on the franchise was really needed. At a glance, Beyond Earth looks alarmingly similar to its predecessor Civilization 5 especially when considering the jump in visuals and mechanics from Civilization 2 and onwards. However, as more time is spent, turn after turn, progressing through Beyond Earth, the differences between these games began to appear more readily. The changes to the Civilization formula are subtle at first but their influence in altering an already well defined set of 4X rules set this game well apart from its forebears.
