Centuries after a nuclear war, you're charged with rebuilding civilization. It's your job to create a functioning city in 20 years (that's 20 minutes realtime!). Begin by laying roads to bring food to your people, then build apartments to give them somewhere to live. Extend your reach by cutting through forest and—oops, your apartments have filled up with waste, so you'll have to build a landfill. Where was I? Cut through forest to get to ancient skyscrapers, which you'll mine for metals and plastics—you're an ace recycler! Oops, your people have deforested the area. Expand! Set up a water turbine and energy transmitters. And some parks! Now you're cooking. Build a dozen high rises and more parks. Aaand you're out of time. How'd you do? You beat your high score! Now, how can you top it?
In 54 minutes I got 100% of achievements and #5 on the leaderboard. I'm pretty sure I've seen all there is to see in the game.
There's only one objective - build enough parks to get enough points for Grandmaster rank by the end of the round. There's no replayability - only one map, only one objective, only one way to achieve it. In addition, the controls...
A clever concept, but the game only has 1 map and the challenge gets easy/repetitive pretty quick. Once you work out the formula each play is roughly the same (score really only depends on how fast you can click)
Some issues to note/be improved :
- You cant drag roads, each tile has to be placed 1 by 1
- Scanline are enabled by default, not sure what...
I was plain gobsmacked to find out there's only ONE level...
I am all for such cute little "coffee break" games but this one consists of 10 micro-tutorials (roughly 10 seconds each i guess?) and one map. Replayability is therefore near zero. Pity!!!
This seemed great on the surface. Build a city, beat a high score, sadly that's also all it is.
There's only 1 map so you're stuck playing the same level over and over. Unless you're massively into min-maxing you'll be done in 1 maybe 2 rounds.
It's nice as an itch.io proof of concept maybe, but not something I'd expect on Steam. I requested a refu...
The UI is awful and my main complaint. The gameplay is incredibly shallow. The idea is intriguing but the execution is poor.
