PLEASE REMAKE THIS GEM OR AT LEAST TELL US IF YOU ARE GOING TO, THANKS If you like the idea of city builders but not quite like the modern solutions - this is for you. This game is like a 3D puzzle - 2D building and pathing puzzle + 1D time puzzle (city evolution can send everything to hell, micromanagement is obligatory but minimal if you build your city correctly). Only big downside is the combat system. I really wish someone perfected this genre. While far from perfect, this is the most enjoyable formulae for city builder for sure. I find all other city builders boring as hell, this game is this good. WARNING: It is possible that they remake this game as they did Pharaoh. You might want to save your time and money for the remake. The chance is lower because this game already looks good enough for modern standards.
I am giving 5 stars because I had NFH: Compilation and I got this one for free. Pros: - Game itself runs at arbitary framerates. - Searching mechanic seems lamer but is actually better for time achievers. Neutral: - Seems to be a PG mobile port. - Animations run at doubled framerate but still only 40Hz (there are 120Hz phones). - Models are FullHD but not 4K (there are 4K phones). They look fine on a 1440p screen. - Pools of water on places where you can put soap on. (It was hard to tell which spots are interactive.) - Rage timer mechanics are more generous. Some levels were extremely hard to 100% before. Cons: - Removed levels.
I am so sad that I lost my disks. Anyways, I do not have a DVD rom in my current build so I am thankful for the DRM free solution. I wish there was a way to redeem my codes if I dig up my CDs. My mom bought them and they were my intro into the amazing PC gaming world.
The game is great. I bought it 2003 or so and lost the disk, but I still have the code. Can I redeem it digitally somehow, because I am not paying second time for a game I bought 10 years ago. Thanks.
