Decent Light Hearted City Builder
Whilst it lacks a lot of the humour from the third title in the series there is still enough there that it can differentiate itself from the more serious titles in the genre.
The campaign is pretty fun with a nice mix of different scenarios requiring you to try out a variety of different approaches to city building instead of just putting down the same cookie cutter towns.
There is a good amount of management to be had in the game, as well as the genre standard economy management you also have various internal factions and external global powers to please. You can choose to pander to certain groups at the expense of reputation with their opposites, try and balance the happiness of all or ignore everyone and go all in on the dictatorship theme and rule with a large army and an iron fist.
There is plenty of fun to be found in this package and would recommend grabbing during a decent sale!
