  1. Great Game

    Another well thought out game by Paradox, although not designed by them directly. It's not a game that requires a high level of focus like EU4 or CK2, but is fun and interesting on different maps. Especially on sale, this is a must have especially for strategy fans.

  2. Best City Building Simulation of the Decade

    Cities Skylines is said to be what Sim City never was, an excellent game, excellent graphics, and does not require much fps (20 is plenty) to be enjoyed. I highly reccommend this to anyone who likes city building and management!
