Cities: Skylines is a 2015 city-building game developed by Colossal Order and published by Paradox Interactive. The game is a single-player open-ended city-building simulation. Players engage in urban planning by controlling zoning, road placement, taxation, public services, and public transportation of an area. They also work to manage various elements of the city, including its budget, health, employment, traffic, and pollution levels. It is also possible to maintain a city in a sandbox mode, which provides more creative freedom for the player.
Runs well on modern hardware.

Installing it after a long time away, it now comes with spyware. If you opt out of data collection you cannot play the game.
Been playing this game for years and the base game delivered but then you add the community stuff on-top and it sets the bar - A bar high enough that it takes more than improved graphics to beat it (skyline 2). IF you enjoy building games there's absolutely no reason not to have this in your collection.
I got bankrupt three times before my population got over 15,000, i have no idea how to make them stop complaining about low education and I have such bad traffic I would move irl. Loving every second of it, great game.
