VirCities - an interesting simulation of urban life with economics and politics

Mobile games market is now dead. Google Play, App Store, and the Windows Store, too, 99.9% consist of some squalor. Huge pipeline different in appearance, but in the same soulless crafts that do not require the participation of the brain. Press-to-Win, pretty quickly turning into a Pay-to-Win. I'm sick of this, and therefore any development, promising hardcore climbing and not from the first minute in the purse, is perceived as a real gift. I'll tell you about VirCities - multiplayer economic-political simulator of human life in the city, made in the spirit of the old school.

About the project VirCities I learned to "Habra". There Developers talk about why it began to make a game, why chose the genre of strategy, simulation of life and what added to the economy and politics. It emphasized the fact that the modern game "are not the same," caught my attention. Indeed, chopping fruit, shoot birds with a slingshot and thoughtlessly Tapan on a coin - it's not what you want from the game.

Ever since childhood I have a special love for the elaborated simulation. That attention to detail allows you to efficiently and deeply immerse yourself in the gameplay, to create his "alter ego", or do the exact opposite - the one who in reality would be severely punished Criminal Russian Federation.

VirCities (reference: Android, iOS, Windows) Is remarkable by the fact that gives complete freedom of choice. Be a bandit, an entrepreneur, a simple worker, torn into power? You choose. Game subtly reveals the player to a virtual city through many quests.

It begins, of course, small: choose the appearance, name and virtual analogue of a real city, to become a citizen through sotsprofilya connection. Never before have I seen such an elegant and logical chords and playing real ID.

Now we have to somehow ensure its existence. Work, as in life, can be found in the labor market. Some jobs there, any more available, so you have to take it there and go to work in the mine.

Earned the first job is spent on clothing and food, and in passing tell the player about the new opportunities: to contribute to the fight against local crime. Watering creeping their methods - it's great and very suitable to my selected facial features of the character. Disassembly replaced by individuals with conflicts with integral bands, with a corresponding increase in benefits.

To survive in such a world, we have to be strong, and then help the gym. Defined, the character will move the next meeting with the bandits much easier.

I did not play very much, just one day and night, so did not have time to get to purchase firearms and more advanced equipment, but opened part of social functions.

VirCities implies an active interaction between the players, starting with the little things like entertainment trolling in-game blogs and ending war between the clans for the whole city, but in the later stages development.

The struggle for power, as in reality, the public is reduced to washing brains. To run for mayor, after having bought the media and write about yourself just the right? Magnificent option, only participate in the elections and the real players. To be able to manage, will have to prove their worth in this people. I do not know how it will happen, but the process is going to be interesting.

For those who are tired of politoty in life and does not want to see her in the game, provided opportunities to develop a entrepreneurial skills. Become a tycoon? It is currently an option, if you are able to establish and maintain production.

There a lot of things. I could discover no more than 10-15 per cent of capacity, and in the process of writing this review, waiting for the official release of the game. I got an invite to the beta test, the people here are not very many, and some features are not implemented more simply. But the play is interesting.

With the given support is not yet entirely clear. There are in-game store, but it is not for sale game currency. There is only drink that restores energy, but this energy is quickly restored by itself. It turns out, is now no point in appealing to shopping there.

Someone is bound to say that there are no fancy graphics. Well, I came in this game is not for beauty. In general, if other developers have invested time and effort in it conceived and fun gameplay, and not in dizaynerstvo, then maybe that's such interesting projects there would be more. The game is available on all current mobile platforms:

• VirCities for Android.
• VirCities for iOS.
• VirCities for Windows.
