The IGN review on the other hand isn't that happy about Sid Meier's "Civilization: Beyond Earth" saying "Beyond Earth is nowhere near the strongest game in the more than 20-year-old Civilization series, but this big collection of interesting experimental ideas definitely still kept me playing long after I should've gone to bed."
