Fun, but tricky Puzzler with story
I played about 14 hours and levels range from 46 to 71, far away from the 300 to 500 range in the second screenshot. The factions are Government (blue), Elite (green), Business (yellow) and Public (red). Each has a corresponding shape (t-like, z-like, 4 in a line and 2x2 respectively). Each basic building of a faction gives 20 resources for that faction and connecting buildings of the same colour in one of the four shapes gives 40 res. for the corresponding faction. Res. get reduced every 10 rounds (consumption) and the consumption increases steadily. (Reaching 0 in a res. ends the game.). If you build something and more than one shape is possible, there is a fix order of which shape takes precedent over others. That can screw you over, if you planned wrong of misclicked (like it happend to me a few times). It may sound complicated, but it is simple. On the map you have a starting point from which you build and some basic buildings are randomly placed on the map at start and they become active once you connect to them. There can also be story points on the map (like people to talk to or special buildings). The game has a story, which progresses as you play and is saved from game to game on a profile. (You have three profile slots.) Furthermore in fixed intervalls events get triggered, which affect consumption and influence. What kind of event depends on what faction has the most influence at the time. You get multiple options (criminal being one sometimes, who then gains influence in the city too) on how to deal with it and the outcome can be different than in former games. The events are varied and some a little strange. I’m not too good with explaining it, but it is very well done. There is no rebinding of keys available, but I don’t need it. Most things can be done with the mouse. The music is nice. I don’t mind listening to it for up to 7 hours straigt. I recommend this game, if you like Puzzlers with a story (until you finish the story, which I have).
