City World. A great game but on the wrong engine.

It looks like a city builder game, and it is. But it's different.

City World is an indie game where you build your own city like every other city building game, but what makes this game different is that it's made in scratch and scratch is a very limited engine, you can see this in the game.

The developer:

The game itself:

You start with a great looking menu with the buttons 'Play', 'Help' and 'More'.

When you click on more, you can see the credits and you can change the volume of the game.

When you click on help, you can see some great tips that are really helpful.

When you click on play, you can name your city and select an environment.

When you've done this, you can play. Place some houses, industry, parks, and see how your city grows.

I really like the art style, it's simple and that actually make it a really good looking game.

Performances:

This is an issue of this game. The game is too complex for the engine and because of that, the game runs slow and feels not like a AAA game.

Conclusion:

The game is built in the wrong engine,

It's a really good game but because it's so slow, it don't nice.

I give this game a 7 out of 10
