There’s certainly no one way to build a city, nor is there one perfect way to lay it out. Ultimately, knowing what to keep and what to toss doesn’t come down to how it makes you feel though, at least not for this game it comes down to what furthers your city towards your play style, and what is holding you back by taking up space you could use for something that does help you.
Get ready to pull a Marie Kondo on your city, because usually the biggest issue with space is having too many buildings that are not serving a purpose worthwhile of taking up that valuable real estate. So this begs the question, how to make it all fit?Įven before you get into re-arranging your city (which, by the way, is a lot easier now that the reconstruction tool is available), you have to decide what you are and are not keeping.
More and more cool special event buildings are released, you age-up to a new era and the buildings get bigger and bigger, you add in tons of great buildings… and before you know it you have no room for anything else! Not only can you not rotate buildings (a feature Inno promises they will never implement, so don’t ask), but some of the buildings are really odd sizes. When it comes to this game, space is at a premium.
