How it feels
A meditative, grounded city-building experience that feels both methodical and expansive as you shape and manage a living metropolis.

What players say
Players still call this the best city builder of its generation, praising its gritty American-city atmosphere and the ability to link cities into regions with no population cap. But the game crashes often on modern systems, has no auto-save, and requires mods and launch-option tweaks just to run at a decent resolution.
