Almost exactly a year ago now, Civilization VI (Free) hit the App Store, and as you can tell from our review, it absolutely knocked our socks off. Civ VI is very much a Real Game, and is probably the iPad game I spent the most cumulative time playing this year.

12/20 – 12/22 Poland Civilization & Scenario Pack (Reg: $4.99)
12/22 – 12/24 Vikings Scenario (Reg: $4.99)
12/24 – 12/26 Australia Civilization & Scenario Pack (Reg: $4.99)
12/26 – 12/28 Persia and Macedon Civilization & Scenario Pack (Reg: $8.99)
12/28 – 12/30 Nubia Civilization & Scenario Pack (Reg: $4.99)
12/30 – 1/1 Khmer and Indonesia Civilization & Scenario Pack (Reg: $8.99)
