Early Access Review
TL;DR This game is the chill brother of Cities Skylines :)

NewCity is like any other city builder. The only difference is that it feels way calmer since there isn't much stress put on you. You start with a simple road, you expand into more roads, place the buildings that you want, and let the game do the rest. There honestly isn't much to say about this game. What I usually do is let the game run on my second screen while doing something else on the other screen.

Sometimes I do some tweaks to my city for 10 minutes and then I just go back to what I was doing, and other times, I spend multiple hours setting up highways and bridges to connect the different cities I have randomly scattered across the map.

Considering that this game is still in early access, I have to say that I do enjoy seeing my city grow bit by bit.

All in all NewCity offers:
  • Weather changes
  • Day and night cycle
  • Relaxing gameplay
  • Cartoony, yet nice graphics
  • Freedom to build whatever your heart desires
Though the price tag is a bit steep, it is very relaxing to see my city grow while playing Overwatch.
