TL;DR: This game tries to be a modern Simcity 4 with some politic gimmicks. It fails on both ends.

This game really tries to play off of the nostalgia people have for games like Simcity 4. How you zone, how everything is grid-like, how the traffic behaves, everything. However, the game feels extremely clunky and lack-luster. Some things that would seem normal and even expected--like being able to make smaller than 3x4 or 4x4 zones--is not possible in this game. Managing utilities is dumbed down to simply placing a power plant or water pump.

These issues could have easily been fixed, but instead we are introduced to a political system. This system feels very shallow and not very useful in any aspect. It feels like my decisions don't really affect the outcome of the city.

To top it off, the overall graphics are good. However, they're good in the sense that the game is made in an engine that makes things looks good, similar to how any Unity or Unreal demo game can look amazing yet garbage at the same time.

Top it off with a very janky method of building roads, a completely asinine bulldozer tool, it's safe to say to wait for the game to fix its issues.
