City Limits is a premium strategy game developed by SpaceMyFriend. It's a tile-based city builder set on tropical islands where players will be tasked with establishing cities on desolated locations and a limited amount of space to work with. There are various modes to choose from, but all offer a fun and relaxing experience.

Similar to Dorfromantik, City Limits pushes players to think ahead before placing down the multiple tile pieces available and given the limitations. This is further compounded by the possibility that they will cascade and form new structures that can potentially expand the space further.

Limited space

City building games have a unique appeal and allure, offering an experience that's strategic and relaxing at the same time. You are typically given a large plot of land to start laying down structures on, letting you play at your own pace and how you want. In comes City Limits, a builder where you have a limited amount of space to work with.

In this game, you'll be transported to a desolate island on which you'll start building your city. The main catch here is there's limited area to work with, so you will need to carefully analyze multiple tile pieces given to you before placing one down. There's also a puzzle element mixed into the gameplay as tiles cascade and form new buildings depending on where you placed them.

Cover your island as best you can before you run out of space. Choose from different modes and listen to an original soundtrack as you chill along. With all that said, though, the gameplay can get dull and repetitive after a while since there's not much variety to it. The game could use more content updates in the future to keep players engaged and interested.

Simple and relaxing

If you like the concept of a city builder but want something simpler and more casual, City Limits is a decent option you can consider. It's easy to learn and its pick-up and play nature makes it a choice for quick game sessions on the go. It could use more content, but aside from that, it is worth checking out for yourself.
