What't yous point? You already boo-boo'd your only other real options of Tropico and SimCity

It holds up pretty good, imo.

ya

Tropico isn't in the present either -- it's a Cold War era game.

And you probably wouldn't like Anno, as it's a lot more strategy-focused than city-building. Sim City is about it these days, other than Cities XL (which is worse in every way).

Anno is not really a strategy as comparable to combat strategies like CoH. Its a true city builder, with a heavy focus on trading. Or, if you manage, about being completely self sustainable. The combat is... barely present, a few boat fights here and there. In my opinion, it's a better game than any SimCity since the SNES version.

Slight warning, 2070 is set in the near future, not in the present. All previous installments are set in the past.

(There's no demo for 2070 iirc, but there should be one for 1404)

I don't think they will change that.
But technically it was the same "fake numbers" in the previous SC as there were no agents...
