Sid Meier's Civilization V is free on Steam until October 23 at 10:00 am. If you haven't bought it or played it, it's the perfect opportunity to try one of the best strategy games ever made.
This free play time comes right as Civilization: Beyond Earth is about to launch. Beyond Earth launches at the end of the week on Friday, October 24. While Civilization V takes place on Earth, Beyond Earth takes players, well, beyond Earth. You take your people beyond earth onto an alien planet and create a new civilization in space.
