Description
A follow up to the puzzle hit Megacity! Concrete Jungle is a new take on the city building genre that swaps micro-management for a more strategic and puzzle-orientated style of city planning. You have a deck of selected cards which you can use to place buildings. Each building will affect it's surroundings in different ways. The aim of the game is to clear city blocks by gathering the required number of points from your residents, giving more room to build. As the city grows, bigger and better new buildings can be added to your deck! As you get opportunities to hone and refine your deck, residents will demand more from you. You'll find yourself inadvertently creating zoning puzzles- playing against your own past planning decisions. Alternatively engage in competitive city planning against challenging AI or local players. Take it in turns to place buildings in the same city and battle over the affection of your citizens!
History
It started off years ago as a sequel to indie game 'MegaCity' from 2011. Although still a successor to that game, it's come far enough to earn a shiny new name.

About ColePowered Games
Boilerplate
A one-man-band indie developer. I've been making games since 2011. My first game 'MegaCity' was a critical success so I decided to keep at it. Several years later and with a few projects under my belt I set up a Kickstarter for the ambitious sequel to MegaCity. That game, 'Concrete Jungle' is probably why you're here...
