SimCity BuildIt: The mother of all city building games lands on AndroidMegalomaniacs rejoice! At long last, SimCity for mobile has arrived, in the shape of the pristine, pocket-sized, town-building game, SimCity BuildIt.The game has been 'soft launched' on the New Zealand and Canadian Google Play stores, meaning that you'll only be able to play it if you have a Google account in either of these countries. If you haven't, don't despair because SimCity BuildIt will be released worldwide very soon. 'soft launched' on the New Zealand and Canadian Google Play storesSimCity BuildIt featuresThis game has been downloaded hundreds of millions since its release and that is because it offers a very realistic city-building and managing experience, thanks to certain features, of course. Here are those features:Build your cityIn SimCity BuildIt, you get to create your own city by building skyscrapers, parks, bridges, and more. It's not just about making things look good – you need to place buildings strategically to keep taxes coming in and make sure your city keeps growing. You'll also face real-life challenges like traffic and pollution, so it's not just about making a pretty city; it's about managing it well. Don't forget to provide services like power plants and police departments to keep your citizens happy and your city in order.Let your imagination soarThis game lets you use your imagination to design different parts of your city. You can build neighborhoods inspired by places like Tokyo, London, or Paris, and even unlock famous landmarks like the Eiffel Tower or Statue of Liberty. Explore new technologies and create futuristic cities, or add sports stadiums to make your city more dynamic. You have the freedom to decorate your city with rivers, lakes, and forests, and expand to new areas like the beach or mountain slopes. Each region you unlock, like Sunny Isles or Frosty Fjords, has its unique style, making your city truly one of a kind.Battle for victorySimCity BuildIt adds a competitive edge with features like Club Wars and Mayoral Battles. Defend your city against monsters or go head-to-head with other mayors. Team up with your Club mates to plan strategies and use disasters like the Disco Twister or Plant Monster against your opponents. Engage in the Contest of Mayors to compete with others, complete challenges, and climb the ranks for rewards. Each new Contest Season brings fresh rewards to enhance and beautify your city.Connect and team upBeing part of a community is crucial in SimCity BuildIt. Join a Mayor's Club to trade supplies, share strategies, and discuss resources. Work together to bring your visions to life and get support for your projects. Leading other mayors and contributing to the growth of the SimCity BuildIt community is a rewarding experience.Hot in the cityIt's strange that it's taken so long for SimCity to join the smartphone and tablet party, especially given that app store is already saturated with city building games. The likes of City Story, Megapolis, Clash of Clans, and even The Simpsons: Tapped Out, have set off a new era of do-it-yourself town planning simulations. You could even argue that none of these games would exist had SimCity not come on the scene all those years ago.City StoryMegapolisClash of ClansThe Simpsons: Tapped OutFinally the original and best city building game is here, though. The good thing is that SimCity BuildIt shows the class of the original game, albeit tangled up inside the modern day web of XP points, game currency, and paywalls.XP points, game currency, and paywallsFans of the original game series won't be disappointed with SimCity BuildIt. The gameplay concepts you know and love have all been replicated here, and they've been wrapped up in glorious 3D.gameplay conceptsThe idea of SimCity BuildIt is that you build the perfect city, furnishing it with residential areas, commerce, factories, entertainment facilities, and the like. You'll need a proper infrastructure which means building roads and equipping the town with essential services such as power, water, and emergency services.build the perfect cityConstructing stuff in SimCity BuildIt works a little differently to the original game, where you just need cash to start knocking up buildings. In this game things are a little more complicated (largely because it's trying to get you to spend real money!)more complicatedTo build and upgrade properties and buildings you need certain materials (metal, wood, nails, etc.), which are forged in factories and housed in storage facilities. Forging the materials takes time (from a few seconds to several minutes), though you can get them made instantly by using your precious SimCash. You have a limited supply of this when you start the game, but you can buy more with your own money.materialsSimCashFor everything you do to expand your settlement in SimCity you earn XP points. You'll need these to level up in order to unlock new types of buildings. Everything you build costs game coins, which you can get by collecting rent from your citizens, exchanging goods with other towns - or buying them with your own, real-world money. XP pointsInner city lifeThe mayor of any city needs to pay careful attention to what its citizens are saying, and things are no different in SimCity BuildIt. Your town is populated by characters like the ones in The Sims, and they will make themselves heard when things are going well or not so well.The SimsSims make their hopes and fears known by little thought bubbles that appear above their house saying that they hate living next to a factory, they enjoy swimming in the park's fountain, etc. It's up to you to interpret these messages and react. Listening to your Sims is important because, if they are fed up, the overall happiness level will drop, and if it reaches critical levels they might start walking out, meaning less taxes for you.thought bubblesYou'll also have to cope with natural disasters in SimCity BuildIt, so make sure you're prepared for everything to go horribly wrong at some point.natural disastersIt's nice that characters appear on screen occasionally and the inane gobbledygook chatter of The Sims is strangely comforting. However, I wish there was more interaction with the characters, such as making them perform tasks, speak to each other, work on projects together, etc. After all, many of the other city building games out there, like the ones I mentioned above, do have strong character-based combat/challenge elements to them.more interaction with the charactersParadise citySimCity BuildIt is perhaps the most attractive city building game for mobile. Its beautiful 3D landscapes and realistic buildings have been inspired by the latest next gen SimCity. It features full 360-degree rotation, allowing you to pan around the cityscape effortlessly. You can zoom in and out with a pinch, although you can't get close enough for my liking.most attractive city building game for mobileThe music in SimCity BuildIt is typically tranquil and melodic, and it serves to absorb you into the game even more.musicStreet spiritSimCity BuildIt presents a frustrating and cumbersome version of the classic SimCity gameplay, and personally I would prefer to pay a few bucks for the game to have the original's 'unrestricted' access to building, rather than the pay-or-wait mechanism.But it is what it is, and as these freemium simulations go, it's got a lot going for it. It looks great and is certainly one of the most true-to-life town building experiences you'll get on a mobile.
