CityBuilderworking title
Goofy on the outside, serious underneath. Googly-eyed little citizens wander a bright, tidy town, while under the hood a real economy, real weather and real utility networks keep it honest.
Run it, don't just build it
Your city keeps going without you
Close the app and the city carries on. When you come back, an away report tells you what happened and why: the front came through, the pumps lost power, the east side went dry.
"Front arrives Thursday. In most futures the east side loses water around 6 pm."
The game plays out eight possible futures for your city and tells you what's likely coming. Place a building and see what it does to the next three days before you commit.
Utilities that matter
When one thing fails, the next one follows
Power, water and sewage are real networks. Storms bring lines down, cold snaps burst mains and heatwaves start fires, and the failures spread just like they would in a real town.
Coal, solar, wind, batteries, gas peakers and nuclear. Water mains and sewers in three sizes. Seasons, day and night, weather fronts and the aquifer under it all.
The economy
You're the mayor, the treasurer and the mint
Set taxes, sell bonds, borrow, set interest rates, even print money. Prices move with real inflation history, so keep an eye on the burger price.
Not your thing? Hand the mint to the Banker and let them run it for you.
Relive history
Can you steer through it?
Scenarios built on real economic history, with medals and scores.
Buildings are a show
Watch it go up
Cranes, scaffolding and hard-hatted workers on every site. Thirty landmarks unlock as you grow, from the Clock Tower to the Space Center, and when times are hard the shops get boarded up.
