5. Sid Meier’s Beyond Earth

Fans of Sid Meier games may remember Alpha Centauri and Beyond Earth is in some ways, the spiritual successor of the former. It was met with some mixed reviews and press, but I personally love the game and it brings all the classic elements from the Civilization games with it, including the turn-based system and gradual research. The research web that is used is especially fun, as players pick different technologies and end up following certain “paths” called affinities, which is new in this game.

Fans of Civilization should enjoy this and even players of sci-fi strategy should enjoy this as well, with the fun theme of colonizing an exotic world. The added DLC of different maps are also welcome, since they can introduce a more dynamic element to the game as well. I found it to be a refreshing take on the Civilization games, since instead of going back through time, humanity takes the leap forward!
