Cities: Skylines - Deluxe Edition [v 1.9.0-f5 + DLC's] (2015) PC

The meaning of the game

The main task of a gamer is not only the construction of a megalopolis, but providing it with all the necessary communications and means to maintain a prosperous existence of residents:

1. Construction of new neighborhoods.
2. Construction of access roads.
3. Creation of a tax system.
4. Organization of city services and public transport.

It depends on the ability to properly allocate budget funds:

1. Residents' health.
2. The level of employment.
3. Environmental cleanliness.

And all this affects the most important factor of people, happiness.

1. Schools.
2. Hospitals.
3. Police stations.
4. Garbage dumps.
