Sid Meier's Starships is the missing link between Civilization and Beyond Earth
One of the ways to win a game of Civilization is to load up a spaceship with your smartest scientists and blast them off into space. The only way to start a game of Civilization Beyond Earth is to land one of those ships on an uncolonized new planet and start exploring. But what of the interplanetary voyages that happen between and after those two empire-building quests — are they not an experience worth having, a story worth telling? Sid Meier and his legendary Firaxis studio believe so, which is why today sees the release of a new game from the Civilization developer. It’s called Starships.
