AI-powered picks based on gameplay, mechanics & feel

Anno 1800

Like SimCity 4, Anno 1800 challenges you to build a thriving metropolis, but adds a layer of complex supply chains, colonial expansion, and naval trade, demanding strategic foresight across multiple islands and even continents.

Planet Zoo

Instead of a city, you're building and managing a world-class zoo, but the core loop of intricate design, resource allocation, and balancing guest satisfaction with animal welfare will feel very familiar to SimCity 4 veterans.
