Still, if you're hankering for some Civ, the demo will give you a good taste, and the full game has just gone on sale as well, with 20% off the base game and 25% off the digital deluxe edition.Originally created by legendary game designer Sid Meier, Civilization is a turn-based strategy game in which you attempt to build an empire to stand the test of time. I'll admit that I've now fallen into the waiting period for a first expansion though, which mainly involves speculating about how the diplomacy system might pack some more muscle onto its frame. I reckon it's a cracker, Civ VI, and you can read all about my reasoning here. That's just about enough time to get to grips with some of the new features, though not enough time to really unpack your capital city and to see all the districts spilling onto the map.

For those completely new to the Civilization series the demo also includes the tutorial from the full game to introduce and guide beginners to the world of Civilization. Players who download the Sid Meier’s Civilization VI demo will be able to play as China, led by Qin Shi Huang and take their first steps building a new civilization for up to 60 turns in to the game. The latest in the venerable strategy series, Civilization VI, now has a demo. If you've been living off the grid and wiping your bum with nettles in the hope that Civilization will one day have a 'try before you buy' policy, today is your lucky day.
