Perhaps the most exciting portion of the game is its mod-ability. The inhabitants are interactive and will act according to how you organize them. Each neighbourhood can get a specific set of rules and policies, which adds a fun, realistic aspect to the game. Once you have developed a city, you can micromanage it to perfection, too. Here, you'll find all the options lined up at the bottom of your screen for easy accessibility.
You then set up some statistics that change your environment to begin building. You just start by choosing a map and naming your city.
