City-building Game
City-building games are a genre of strategy video game where players act as the overall planner and leader of a city, looking down on it from above, and being responsible for its growth and management. Players choose building placement and city management features such as salaries and work priorities, and the city develops accordingly.
City-building games such as SimCity or Cities XL are considered a type of construction and management simulation.
