Before We Leave vs SimCity
Before We Leave
Before We Leave is a strategic city-builder that sees the descendants of the survivors emerge from safety to reclaim the world, like their predecessors, after years of huddling in underground bunkers no thanks to a galactic disaster. In this game, you’ll need to manage your colony of Peeps by making sure their needs are being met and producing enough resources for them to explore the planet and exploit the resources present.Besides exploring and keeping your Peeps happy, the gameplay also consists of optimizing production lines, unlocking new technologies and upgrades, and trying to offset challenges that will buffet your production systems, sometimes reducing productivity to almost zero. Eventually, as you progress, you can even colonize other planets!
All in all, Before You Leave is simply a brilliant and strategic village builder that is a whole lot deeper than it looks. You can spend hours building and rebuilding your villages just so you can hit that sweet spot of being completely optimized, and then to do it all over again once you’ve unlocked something new.
SimCity
SimCity is the inspiration of every city-building game ever made and it is so for a very good reason. The game not only allows you to build a virtual city of your own design, the city-building process is incredibly intricate and once it's done, you can even enjoy watching your little Sims go about their day. As their mayor, you can't exactly do whatever you like if you hope to keep your people's support. Due to this, it is important to take your Sims' feedback and improve the city accordingly.The best part though is its multiplayer aspect. You can actually team up with your friends to help solve global challenges in your city, projects that range from launching a space shuttle or construct amazing wonders of the world. Compete with other mayors from all around the world in a variety of categories on the leaderboard!
SimCity is a revolutionary game when it was first released and it is still inspiring a ton of new and in-depth city-building simulation games until today. Take up the role of a mayor in a simulated city now and see how well a job you can do!
