Nostalgic meets Fresh, Retro meets Modern

The overall aesthetic of IsoMetro™ is a nod to city builder games from decades ago. Building on the base mechanics introduced by those original pioneers, IsoMetro™ leverages the vastly superior processing capabilities of today's "low end" hardware, to power a surprisingly nuanced and authentic economic simulation. It's not as simple as "big city, big buildings" -- economic effects are specific to every individual tile, encouraging you to think carefully about transit options and zoning policy if you want to see dense, vibrant city centers take shape.

Editions

IsoMetro™ Free Edition, still under active development, is like a free trial -- except with no limit to play time, and with enough content that you may find yourself playing it for hours without getting bored. Even after the Gold Edition releases, the Free Edition will continue receiving the very same simulation engine updates and quality-of-life improvements that roll out for the paid version.

IsoMetro™ Gold Edition, when it releases, will include a greatly expanded library of new, more detailed assets. You'll be able to place a wider variety of government services, utility facilities, and transit systems. Buildings that develop on their own will have a more intricate supply chain, and the range of possible buildings for the economic engine to pick from will extend to much larger, more imposing structures. The calm, casual experience of building out a city of low-rises and suburbs remains low-stress for players who prefer that playstyle, while trying to entice the biggest, shiniest, most demanding buildings will provide a challenge to players who want to put their urban planning principles to the test.
