_Description: As a virtual mayor, find the rightbalance between economic development of your cities, attractiveness, transportation (road traffic, bus, metro…), pollution, social services, taxes and even leisure activities.
Create a proper economic development
by setting up trade between cities; you can specialize certain cities
in specific areas to fill in the needs of the others. This will ensure
large-scale financial success and allow you to develop an increasingly
complex network of cities! See the big picture! Over 300 new
buildings and structures are available for a total of more than 1000
constructions, leading the way for new building and combination options
never seen before in a City Builder. Recreate your own fantasy versions
of the World’s biggest cities, including New York, Paris, Hong Kong and
Rio de Janeiro, each featuring its most famous building and monuments!
In
Cities XL 2012, 62 maps including 15 new ones bring many challenges in
the heart of incredibly varied and detailed scenery: fractured or rugged
landscape, landlocked constructible areas or easy access to natural
resources… these challenging conditions and many more await all virtual city-planners!
Thanks
to a high end graphic engine, Cities XL 2012 offers visuals close to
photorealistic quality. Build a true modern empire, then immerse
yourself at the city’s core to admire each one of your constructions as
if you were actually there. Each map, as well as every environment, has
received a special care to provide an immersive and unique production to
the game! Cross the city limits and manage a network of cities on
the entire planet! Cities XL 2012 lets you connect every city that you
will build in the game. This will give you a chance to specialize some
of your cities and to establish business links to share resources and
services. Cities management is complete thanks to a sophisticated transportation system. Choose the type of transportation you want, create bridges and tunnels, and manage a brand new public transportation network, including buses, and underground and elevated railways. Clever management will surely help decongest downtown traffic while lowering pollution levels and increasing the population’s satisfaction. Thanks to an ultra realistic representation of the population, citizens show various types of profiles depending on their education, their expectations and their activities. You will need to take those profiles into account to provide the right services and leisure activities for your citizens. It’s also up to you to maintain a pleasant living environment and even attract new citizens.
