City Builder, Peaceful.
A excellent city builder, in the peaceful theme of Middle Kingdom China. Lots of small features to make the city builder task interesting (Zodiac, Ancestors, Spys). Enjoy!

My Favorite Impressions Citybuilder
Timeless looks, less jank than the older titles, more depth and immersion than Zeus. Great title to chill and watch your city, or to give yourself a challenge in some of the harder scenarios
