Cities: Skylines 
 

The Sky is no limit!

Inhabit a world where you define the rules. Cities: Skylines invites you to create the city of your dreams in a  sprawling landscape dominated by cloud hugging structures and jaw dropping architectural marvels.

Developed by Colossal Order, Cities: Skylines offers sprawling landscapes and maps with endless sandbox gameplay and new ways to expand your city. Key to progression is the ability to influence your city’s policy by incorporating taxation into districts. All this including the ability to mod the game to suit your play style makes this the definitive city building simulation. 

You’re only limited by your imagination, so take control and reach for the sky!

Main features:

  • City policies: Set policies to guide how the city and districts develop over the course of your playthrough.
  • City districts: Personalize city districts with names of your choice for variety and personality.
  • Road building and zoning
  • Unlock buildings and services
  • Taxation: Fine-tuning the city budget and services and setting tax rates to different residential, commercial and industrial levels and controlling what kind of areas are more likely to spawn in the zoned areas
  • Public transportation: Build transport networks throughout the city with buses and metros
  • Outside connections: Make industry and commercial districts flourish with new customers in the neighboring cities
  • Wonders: the ultimate end-game content that the players strive towards
  • Huge maps: Unlock new map tiles with unique possibilities to expand the city
  • Water flow simulation: Add new challenges to water services.
  • Polished visual style and core gameplay
  • Modding tools: Built in feature designed to encourage creative pursuits.

I have dreamt of this. To be able to construct a city, and not only that, but to actually be able to create and actually manage it's transport system. Something SimCity would never let me do. Coming 2015.

A few days late but, there was a Reddit Q&A regarding Cities Skylines (Yes, still made by Collosal Order), here is the full transcript:

Apparently, they've wanted to make this game for years and were suprised at that EA was making the 2013 SimCity.
