Cities XL Limited Edition
Publisher: Focus Home Interactive
Developper: Monte Cristo

Cities XL tries to expand the city-building genre with new ideas, but the solo game is
generic, and the online features aren’t ready for a ground-breaking ceremony. CITIES XL™ is
the next-generation in city-building games, allowing gamers to develop cities on realistic
3D maps using an incredible collection of unique structures. Would-be Mayors are challenged
to create the right combination of social services, leisure activities, special events and
job opportunities within their cities in order to feed, employ and entertain their
citizens.Realism will be pushed to the limit with cities that are bigger, more realistic and
more sophisticated than ever before.
