This automation takes away the tediousness of creating all housing and workplaces for people. The people in the city just make their own. This is great because the player doesn’t need to make apartments or houses. Everything else is zoned and populated automatically. These are things like hospitals, firehouses, police stations and public transportation hubs. Skylines does something else I haven’t seen recently: Instead of being tasked to create every business and building in the city, the player is tasked only with building structures pertinent to the functioning of the city. There are more road types than I found uses for, including two way roads, one way roads, highways and many more variations on those same themes. My point is: If the player is skilled and thinks ahead, the tools in this game will allow almost anything he or she can imagine to be created.Ĭities: Skylines has a huge number of tools available. I tried to create Derry, from Stephen King’s IT, but failed pretty miserably. Since receiving Skylines, I have played around with different city types, locations, policies and more.
It truly allows players to build the city of their dreams, or recreate a fictional burgh. You might need it too, because Skylines isn’t a simple game. One nice addition though, is that the game has a pretty good tutorial for getting players started and on the way to success. You simply pick a plot of land, name your city, and go.
There are no scenarios where you pick up a partially-built city in order to succeed either. The player is then tasked with building out that plot of land with nothing on it, into a bustling metropolis. Basically, the player is given an initial plot of land and a certain amount of money. The premise of this game is not really different at all from any other city building game set in a contemporary time period. Was the wait for the console jump worth it? Does Cities hold up as a robust and fulfilling citybuilder? Take a look. In the meantime, at least one expansion has released, the game has come out on the Xbox One -and finally- it arrived last week on the Playstation 4. This deluxe city builder was hotly anticipated when it was first releasing for PC a couple of years ago. Build your own metropolis in the PS4 version of Cities: Skylines.
