Who does not like to see how your own city grows and thrives? The residents go to their daily tasks, any traffic is regulated and every day a pretty amount of money flows into the state treasury. This is a feeling that can not only offer a genre. Strategy games like the Civilization series make you build an empire, with many small towns or a few very big ones. In Colony-Sims like Rimworld, you have to handle a colony and secure survival on an enemy world.
However, today we want to look at a very old genre, which has definitely survived the test of time. From the text-based economic simulation The Sumerian Game from 1964, the first SimCity of 1989, to Gigantic games like Cities: Skylines from 2015, City Builder has been accompanying the gaming landscape since its start.
At the popularity of City Buildern, not much has done. Numerous players still enjoy this simplifying simplicity but very profound concept. Build a city sounds pretty simple at first, but many titles miss this topic their own note, whereby no city builders are now feeling right now. Many players still enjoy urban planning, you can always see the Steam sales chart.

For example, the BIBER City Builder Timberborn explores the second place of the charts on 15 September 2021 and thus is a true surprise hit. Currently, there are 95 percent of the approximately 2,000 user reviews of positive nature. The cuteness of the beaver will certainly be played here, but it also speaks for the durability of the genre.
Currently it is really good to be a fan of City Builders. There are constantly new representatives of the genre, which bring all their own charm and mechanics. We have listed for you a few of the best new city builders who you can play in this or next year.
ACTRAISER RENAISSANCE
This title was surprisingly announced at the last Nintendo Direct. Actraiser Renaissance is a remaster of the original game actraiser from 1990. The game is a pretty fun mix of platformers and city builders and with the new version you can look forward to improved 2D graphics and a revised soundtrack. In addition, the title also received modern features, such as memory levels and an adjustable level of difficulty. If you have a little action in addition to your urban development or simply want to indulge in nostalgia, then Actraiser Renaissance is the perfect game for you.
Townscaper
So to speak, the exact opposite to the last title is Townscaper. The title does not even offer that much. You start in the middle of the sea and can build a small house by mouse click. A few clicks next to it and already the cottage has turned into a multi-family house. Townscaper is about building a cozy little town in the ocean. Depending on how you placed your homes, you can build small gardens or huge parks, let channels flow, and so on. The right Simple Game Principle offers much more than one thinks at first glance and the community has already conjured numerous really impressive buildings. Townscaper is the city builder for all those who simply want to relax a little for the sound of the sea.
Dice Legacy
Dice Legacy plays on a mysterious Ringwelt. As the name suggests, in this title dice is your citizens. You can enhance your dice citizens to protect them from any dangers like the weather, and build a city as they like. Dice Legacy plays like a rather normal city builder with all the systems you like. Really interesting make the title the bizarre environment and the blocky residents you need to take care of. We also have a test to Dice Legacy for you, you should still make the buying decision.
Buildings Have Feelings Too!
Do building feelings? Maybe! But in Buildings Have Feelings Too you are sure. Whether old-age buildings or modern terraced houses, all buildings run around here, talk to each other and have their own hopes and dreams. Your houses can have fear to be demolished someday. Here it is your task to be well tolerated and to cheer you again. In the course of the game, more and more unique building types are added, such as industrial complexes. Buildings HAVE Feelings Too is definitely a very unique experience and turns the topic of a city builder completely upside down.
Frostpunk 2
Now the first title that you have to wait for a while. Most of you will certainly know Frostpunk, but to summarize it briefly: In Frostpunk, you will conduct a small colony consisting of survivors of an eternally lasting winter. In this game, the cold is so your biggest enemy and you must therefore generate enough heat to live all your residents.
In addition to ubiquitous frosting death, frostpunk is also a little darker than the normal city builders in many other aspects. You can legalize children s work by law. Your population may hate you. Have your subjects enough of you, you will be sent to exile. Frostpunk is an extremely popular title and the continuation will hopefully be at least as well as the predecessor. There is no release date yet, but you can pack the title on your Steam wish list.
Terra Nile
Usually it is about building a city in City Builder. In Terra Nil, however, you must transform a Karges Brachland into a thriving ecosystem. For this you first build a river, makes the land fertile, and let pieces return the flora and fauna into this former burglar. In addition, of course, you have to get the climate that keeps an eye on biodiversity, and much more. Terra Nile should be released sometime in 2022, but you can already download a demo to the game on Steam.
Diplomacy is not attached to Option
Here we have a game, which fans of titles like They Are trillions certainly like. Diplomacy is not attached to option is a mixture of tower defense and city build. So you have to build your city and the necessary defenses and then protect your fortress from incessantly incident opponents. However, you can not negotiate with your adversaries, trekets are much more effective anyway. Diplomacy is not attached to Option on 26 January 2022. As a taste, the developers have already published a demo on Steam.
Let s build a zoo
Granted, this game does not have much to do with the building of a city. But you can still build much. Animal enclosure, feed stations - for the animals as well as for your zoo visitors, employee spaces, and what else is needed. Buying a separate zoo is not too original concept and titles like Planet Zoo have already implemented this outstandingly. However, what LET s Build A Zoo sets off the crowd are the different decisions that you can meet in the title.
Do you want to keep yourself at all laws or act outside the legal system to earn more money? Is the selection from over 500 different animals too little? Then just creates your own! Through DNA-splicing you can create thousands of different animals, from cute small animals to correct monstrosities. What happens to the animals that do not attract too many visitors? Of course you can keep you in your enclosure, or sell to the local butcher. The choice is with you. An accurate release date for Let s Build A Zoo is currently unknown, but the title should appear soon .
Against The Storm
What s worse than rain? In Against The Storm nothing. In this mix of Rogue-Lite and City Builder, you have to build new settlements, which are then inhabited by intelligent bers, lizards and people. Your task is to survive long enough to generate resources for the capital. The is the only sanctuary in front of the dangerous rain. In the game you will build new towns constantly and at the same time improve your capital to even conquer the rain itself. Against The Storm is scheduled to appear on 18 October 2021 in the Early Access for the Epic Games Store.
Gord
Most recently, we still have Gord. To call this game gloomy could be smooth. In addition to normal cities management, your villagers have to go here for random quests in the wilderness. Here you can then eat by huge spiders or an army of beetles, psychological damages, and many other bad things. Children s victims are probably also part of the game. Particularly interesting to Gord is that all scenarios can be adapted. Do not you like the goal of a task? Changes it. The card is too small? Enlarges you. Gord offers many opportunities to make your adventure for your wishes. Whether the villagers find that so well, let s go. Incidentally, Gord is developed by some former CDPP employees and will be published sometime 2022. From Daniel Link author & Maria Beyer-Fistrich Brand / Editorial Director 02.10.2021 at 08:00
