New York can't be this boring...
The menu was on my screen and was looking all great,
I thought: hmmm, this is my first time, let's begin with the Sandbox mode.
The game loaded and there was a big New York with only streets and important building on screen.
Not long after that I figured out that I had to click on a field within streets and select what I wanted to build, like an Theater or restaurant.
The number of buildings was more than I expected, but when I filled up a field, and looked at the people walking in and out of my new buildings,
I was missing something: DEPTH.
The game is just about placing builings on empty fields in NY!
That's not what I was expecting and not what I was planning to do for a few more hours!
The graphics of the game are in contrast beautifull!
People on the street can be zoomed fully onscreen, and you can look within the buildings you build, but this doesn't add any extra gameplay elements!
The sound are the normal city sounds and a very irritating background song.
Some Simgamers who want something (very) easy to play with, will be very satisfied. Me on the other hand want something like Simcity, where you have to think about a lot of things, and not only about placing buildings.
They just to extend the gameplay some more, that's all what keeps this game from beïng a good game!
