I can’t recall how many hours I’ve spent fiddling with my digital cities throughout the many versions of “SimCity” and variants thereof, only to tear them down on purpose when I was through with them by calling upon every natural (or man-made) disaster available. “Cities Skylines” is a fantastic video game adaptation of “SimCity” and I was pleased to be able to give this physical copy a go.
This is a cooperative city-builder where you’re trying to get the highest happiness rating possible. You’ll have to manage things like trash, electricity, water, and other utilities by placing support buildings in addition to your typical residential, commercial, and industrial zones. Aidalee and I sum up the game with a run-through and post-game thoughts below, should you be interested. It’s not without its flaws but I’d easily play it again. Long live Chirper!
Final Verdict: 7/10
