THE BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front):
When is comes to simulation city builder games, right now, this is by far the best one. And I have put in over 460 hours of play time into it.
The Good:
If you like city-builders then this is your best option. The graphics are great, the tools are intuitive, and the amount of difficulty is perfect. And all of that has been made better with the massive collection of community created mods for this game. It even has a pretty good selection of music genres to listen to as you build. I love this game and you might too.
The Bad:
This game is the best that it's ever been BUT it's been a long time coming. It's been buggy, crashed a lot, and was very demanding on your CPU.
And, unfortunately, I have to take a star off for Quick Game Factor. This game game is made to spend a lot of time playing it. It's not made for quick wins but rather slower gratification.
