Review by Matt S. If you like empire-building games like Civilization, or city builders like Cities: Skylines, but you don’t have the hundreds of hours of spare time lying around, then firstly, hello fellow millennial! I hope you’re getting as utterly tired of the endless hustle that modern life demands…
