SimCity Metropolis heading to mobile phones
The first mobile-exclusive version of classic strategy series
EA Mobile has unveiled its latest SimCity game, and you'll only be able to play it on mobile phones.
It's called SimCity Metropolis, and it's out… now! It's the follow-up to SimCity Societies, which came out earlier this year, and keeps many of that mobile game's good points, while expanding the scope.
You'll start with a small city, and will then be tasked with managing it through its evolution, until it becomes a bustling metropolis (hence the name).
You'll get to focus on three different neighbourhoods – Downtown, Industrial and Residential – each with their own buildings and challenges. You'll have around 120 different buildings to play with during the game's 18 scenarios.
It's the most storyline-centric version of SimCity yet, but keeps the mobile-friendly interface and wry humour that made SimCity Societies so fun.
Stand by for an interview with the game's producer on its changes, before the full review goes live soon.
