I bought this in 2013 and played it a bit then. It looked like it could be something, but I guess a few years later (2015) they killed off the game. The good news is they released the source code and the community fixed the bugs and have been patching it. It appears the last patch and final to be coming out was released a year ago (early 2023).

It is sad to see this go like it did since this could've been a lot more. But at least we got the source code and the community could fix the game and bring it to a point worth while.
I can never recommend a game like this where they killed it off in such a way it literally caused Steam to change it's policy on EA games on them not using this as their only source of income. And even more, them charging you $10 for others (the community) doing 90% of the work fixing and you having to jump through massive hoops to find the fix and install it. I mean one of the people from the community worked on the patches for almost 10 years for free.

its just a bad city builder with no mod support
