Model City

This is a fun "casual" game as described. This is not true city builder game. So when purchasing this game expect it to be very casual. For what you get out of this it pretty good. It runs very smoothly and I like watching the building upgrade. It is worth a try if you like city building games. My only complaint is the price of the game. I find it a tad too high for what you get out of it.

This.... is not a game. Nothing is explained and all you do is fill in squares and that is it. The controls are just awful, you want to scroll out? Scroll wheel right? Nope, it's the same button as the back button, wtf? Moving forward you are scrolling in if you want to or not unless you look up, so unintuitive! You cannot turn down the music, on or off is it. It took me all of 5 minutes to fill in the squares and that is it, the game is done and gives no explanation at all about what you are doing. There is a video just before the screen shots above, watch it and you have seen the entire game. This is not something I would play even for free.... good thing I got it for free, now I want my time back!
I thought maybe this was early access? Nope! I though okay, maybe they just put this out? Nope, it's 2 years old and this is it! Amazing the crap people are allowed to charge money for on Steam...

Once again, steam needs a neutral option for rating games. Is it horrible? No, but I've seen more compelling mobile games. I barely feel like I will get my $ worth even though I got it on sale, so it gets a negative rating.

-This is less of a city builder and more like a basic resource-balancing puzzle in the way it functions.
-There is no explanation of what to do or why. You just have to click around until you figure it out, which wasn't very engaging. It runs smoothly, so if you're looking for super simple, it might appeal.
-Basic game play makes this pretty boring fast, unless you just like a terrarium that looks like a city. It feels very shallow and I don't know how it could have much replay value.
