Super in-depth city builder/economic management game. Cool/deep NPCs and really intricate graphics. The kind of game you can tell the devs were passionate about. The goal is to start with a shitty village and turn it into a luxurious metropolis by ramping up the economy and encouraging immigration. Super customizable and you can build some legit cities.

Drawback is a steep learning curve. I recommend Dawn of Discovery (aka Anno 1404) for beginners. 2205 is also a title you can skip. It was not very great.

It's also known as Anno 1404, the 4th in the series and it's very refined compared to its predecessors. It's considered the strongest in the series for that reason, also because that the successor Anno series (Anno 2070, 2205) have been Ubisoft'd. That said, Anno 2070 is actually pretty good too, but Anno 2205 is irredeemable.

PC strategy games come in all shapes and forms. It is a city builder at heart, but what sets it apart is that the core gameplay is about the logistics of resources to build and maintain cities. It sounds boring, but it's really fun, and there's nothing quite like it.

Sounds definitely worth
