City builder fans should be happy: there’s still a lot to look forward to before the end of this year.
CS2 thus far seems like an insane step up. Very excited.
Big shout out to manor lords as, if I remember correctly, it’s made by a single dev from Ukraine who has been heavily impacted by the current war.
The demo was really fun!
I had no idea it was a Ukrainian game. I thought it was just another unity-like scam game but if it’s a real serious game he has my support when it launches.
Thanks for sharing this article. Hadn’t heard of a few of these. Looking forward to Manor Lords and CS2 myself. But I’ll check out the others as well I’m sure.
This looks great. I’ve steadily gotten into this sort of game over the years. I mostly play age of empires 2, and occasionally sim city. What other games should I check out that aren’t going to bleed me dry on DLC?
Tentatively excited for CS2. Put a lot of time in the first game but after initial learning you really needed mods to make it interesting. It also wasn’t that great of a sim. Paradox’s DLC strategy is also abysmal, I see the first “expansion” is bridges and ports. I haven’t been able to find any information on what is in the expansion.
