Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth - Rising Tide Review
72That’s true for most of Rising Tide. There’s no single feature that will revolutionise Beyond Earth’s fairly conventional approach to strategy, but as a complete package this expansion does a great job of fleshing out the game’s mechanics and giving it a sense of identity that previously was sorely missing. New naval cities offer intriguing tactical options, and that enhanced diplomacy system is a huge improvement for a game which struggled to bring its cast of faction leaders to life. Even the less notable features, like Artefacts you can loot from alien structures and combine to earn one-off bonuses, and the new factions and Biome world types, add some welcome depth. There’s still work to be done – the end-game still fizzles out unspectacularly, and it’s disappointing that each world’s exotic alien lifeforms still act as little more than troublesome barbarians – but Rising Tide is an excellent first step on the road towards a better Beyond Earth.
