This is where the most realistic cities are created.

For the first time, condominiums and shops on the same street and on the same plot of land!

For the first time, condominiums and shops on the same street and on the same plot of land!
There is a lack of bicycles, it is not possible to create lakes, and there are no seats.
This is certainly much better optimized.
Citizens with little entertainment, and not displayed when using recreational facilities.

In detail, the use is often very delicate (turns, connections).
There are still some creaks here and there in the game mechanics (traffic simulation, needs analysis).
Partially incomprehensible behavior of AI citizens (parking on the highway)
Concept of circulation heavily focused on private cars.
A not too complex game economy.
Special building available only in one version.
Less agitated than its predecessor.
Lack of animations
Various graphical issues (flickering shadows, object collisions)
High system requirements and performance issues.
... whose program, however, soon repeats again.
Very "local" ambient noises that suddenly appear and abruptly disappear.
