Global City is a management strategy game that's not a far cry from the smashing 90s classic SimCity. Once again, players get to design a city from the ground up. Start by designing roads, homes, energy sources, industrial areas, decorative elements and much more. Each tiny little detail holds the potential to rise a great metropolis from a sleepy rural town.
Game systems in Global City are not unlike other titles within this same genre. Mainly, you'll notice that you can build your city any way you want starting with the basics and moving onwards to increasingly cosmopolitan features. That being said, in order to build any of this, you'll need one thing -- money. This time around, the way to gain that money is by forging deep ties with the merchants in your budding town's port.
In Global City there are tons of different types of buildings, with a range of that goes from small townhouses all the way to huge cement factories, shopping malls, courtyards, and public monuments. Each building provides a specific set of strategic advantages, so you're going to need to think twice before deciding on how you build in order to create a great metropolis.
Global City is a fun virtual city management game. You'll find that there's enough content here to keep you hooked for hours and hours. With its simple and accessible gameplay, this time things are quite a bit easier than on SimCity, but with all the charm of the original hit.
