FreeCiv game playable in Web browsers

FreeCiv has been in development since 1995, but that doesn’t mean it’s stuck in the past. Everyone’s favorite not-Civilization nation-builder is now playable in browsers and on mobile devices so you can fully lose every waking moment enjoy multiplayer games anywhere you go.

The opensource 4X title is compatible with HTML5 browsers, so you can play in Chrome or Firefox without installing it on—let’s be honest here—your workplace Mac or PC. I don’t think anyone’s under any illusions about what this particular version will be used for. You may be in a beige-walled cubicle tomorrow, but your brain (and your browser) will be sending out scouts and making trade treaties with foreign dignitaries.

Really cool stuff. If you’re a fan of the original Civilization, you’ll love FreeCiv.
