What Critics Are Saying About Cities: Skylines

That distinction between the two doesn't retroactively make SimCity a better game. A failure is still a failure. It does, however distinguish a visionary-but-broken game and one that works enough to please an itch without pushing boundaries. Skylines is a merely competent game that's smart enough to let the community innovate for it. All its problems and all its genuine innovation will come from the creative ambition of its players. It's comforting in a way, because with that you feel that you share your struggles with a larger community, but there's still the nagging feeling Cities: Skylines lacks a magic of its own.

Cities: Skylines is all about building huge, bustling cities, but they don't need us to save them from disaster.

A handful of flaws, but this fun and addictive city-builder still climbs high.
