Critic Reviews for Cities: Skylines
Colossal Order's 'Cities: Skylines' is an entertaining city building game on a scale like no other, and it may be a perfect replacement for 'SimCity'.
A handful of flaws, but this fun and addictive city-builder still climbs high.
Cities: Skylines is all about building huge, bustling cities, but they don't need us to save them from disaster.
That distinction between the two doesn't retroactively make SimCity a better game. A failure is still a failure. It does, however distinguish a visionary-but-broken game and one that works enough to please an itch without pushing boundaries. Skylines is a merely competent game that's smart enough to let the community innovate for it. All its problems and all its genuine innovation will come from the creative ambition of its players. It's comforting in a way, because with that you feel that you share your struggles with a larger community, but there's still the nagging feeling Cities: Skylines lacks a magic of its own.
True to its PC reputation, Cities: Skylines is the best city-builder out there today
Smart attention to details like zoning and policy decisions make Cities: Skyline the most authentic city-builder you can play.
You want to build cities? This game lets you build really big cities that look awesome.
Cities: Skylines – PlayStation 4 Edition brings an excellent city-simulator to consoles offering an amazing interface and excellent visuals. Everything is straightforward in terms of gameplay and the game feels like a modern take on the older and excellent versions of Sim City. While the console version may lack some of the content the PC version does, there is more than enough here to keep anyone busy.
