Atmocity: Sky City-Building Simulation Review
Atmocity is a premium simulation game by Correcture Games AB that challenges your organizational and management skills in building cities in the sky. With a unique twist on city-building, Atmocity offers a campaign mode where you act as the city mayor or a free-roaming mode for more creative freedom. The game's blend of realism and technicality reminiscent of Timberborn and Cities: Skylines, combined with a concept akin to Airborne Kingdom, sets it apart in the simulation genre.
Manage your own Atmocity by constructing a city in the sky across 15 levels in the campaign mode, serving as a tutorial to introduce game mechanics gradually. The game provides a variety of structures and technologies to unlock, allowing players to experiment with different city setups, including residences, universities, and commercial establishments. Strategic decision-making involving trade agreements and cultural developments adds depth to the gameplay, along with the challenge of keeping your city afloat.
Overall, Atmocity offers a refreshing take on city-building with its flying cities concept, providing a good balance of gameplay mechanics and content variety. While not as detailed as some other city-building games, its minimal graphics enhance optimization and aesthetics. The game's retro mode for ground-based city building and unique camera controls contribute to its distinct gameplay experience, albeit with a learning curve.
