    O jogo promete tudo aquilo que o simcity não pode ter: jogabilidade, gráficos e trilha sonora. Esse jogo é indispensável.

    Best and most complete simulation and management game I've ever played. Lots of different game mechanics and special attention to detail that makes all the difference. The game has many tools to explore and is not repetitive because there are several ways to make your city work. Plus, it's a little more complicated compared to others, which makes the experience even more challenging andBest and most complete simulation and management game I've ever played.

    Muy bueno, aún sin dlcs, pero llega un momento en el que el tráfico es un problema...eso le resta puntos.
    Y también con el tiempo llega a aburrir.

    It's a huge sandbox. And it's GREAT. Graphics are nice , even though stability it's not the best, but that's what you get when you have that big of simulation. It's amazing feeling to micromanage your bus station and subway, decorate your city to your dreams..

    The God/Goddes of City Builder Games.
    Its awesome to create and manage a City that looks full of life. The Game gave the freedom to build huge cities in sandbox Style or you can lost in real micro managing to create the perfect traffic system, education or whatever . A huge modder community supports you with cool mods amazing buildings and many more. But only with official dlc its massive.

    the quintessential city builder,I really enjoyed the hours I spent playing this game, it has a great learning curve, there is always something to try and learn (the game is a bit dependent cpu)

Moderno y facil de jugar, con buenos tutoriales para lograr llevar tu ciudad a lo mas grande. Recomendado para jovenes interesados en aprender a gestionar recursos y lograr la mejor eficiencia.

    Best city builder of all time. Highly detailed, you have to care about everything in your city.
    However, Paradox wants you to buy 100s of DLCs.

    I love city builder games and wanted another SimCity game for so long and wish I found this sooner. It can use more improvements and more in depth content but looking for a simple SimCity game to play pick this one up.

    It started as a 7, a good game in its own right. After a few DLCs which added very interesting content it became an 8. Then I discovered mods and the Steam workshop. 10/10. If it would lose points now it's only due to the amount of my life this game has consumed making me wonder what I could have been or achieved if I wasn't pretending to be both a mayor and a god in a small city.

    Everything Sim City should be.

    Modifications and customizations gives the players option how to tweak their cities. Only drawback I experience is the performance issues when you have a bigger city.

    Traffic management is the way to destress after experiencing a 2-hour traffic jam yourself.

    This is really a pinnacle of city sims out there. Highly recommended. If only they fixed bugs instead of relying on modding community...

    A near perfect city simulator, I can't stress enough how much this soars over SimCity 5. From the city planning, to the massive possible city size, there is clearly a god, and its name is Paradox.

    The summit of city building in PC in the 201x. Great map size, offline mode, map editor, mod support, systems and systems and systems. Every OS supported.

    Good graphics and great gameplay. The only caveat may be that many features similar to Simcity are behind paywall, like winter, nightlife or disasters. But the game by itself is already a deep experience.
    A must for fans of city builders.

    An an excellent city builder with so many options its crazy, once you start down the dark path of planning and building your city the hours will vanish. Supported by a huge amount of mods also!

    Well I had some performance problems in the late game, but all in all, it´s running fine. As always a good game from Paradox. The graphics are ok but the most important thing is, building up your city is fun!

    My past experience with city builders was pretty much limited to the DS SimCitys. This game is far superior to those in every way. And it has mod support too! 10 out of 10

    This game is everything that SimCity 5 should have been. In addition to its great user interface, it actually SUPPORTS mods, a change from SimCity 5. You can make any city you want using assets from the Steam Workshop, which is set up really well and is easy to use.

Как же круто дополняет игру даже такая мелочь как переименование улиц, зданий и т.д., с этим можно очень весело побаловаться. Например улица (Фамилия вашего бест френда) или "улица разбитых фонарей".

    This game is fantastic and is what Simcity (2015) Should have been. Some Examples:
    1. A good map size
    2: Residents have ONE house, they go to ONE job and they come home to that same house

    Minus one point due to DLC
