ButtonMasher: Cities XL Review

Maxis has always lead the way with city simulators from as far back as 1989 with their release of the original Sim City. The franchise grew and grew, as did the fanbase. It wasn’t until their last release, Sim City Societies, where they tried something new that the fanbase started really clamouring for a decent city simulator. While Monte Cristo’s release of City Life didn’t quite make the splash people were hoping, it didn’t stop MC from trying again, and this time with a much grander vision of what they wanted to give people. Something that could topple the Sim City franchise.
