It's now arrived on the Mac and, frankly, it's just the sort of thing that could help calm you down a bit in these 'interesting' times we're living through.Ĭreated by a team that includes Ken Wong - one of the lead designers on the instant classic Monument Valley - Florence is an interactive story about the life, and first love, of Florence Yeoh. The mobile version of Florence was launched a couple of years ago, and promptly scooped up loads of awards for its engrossing 'slice of life' gameplay and storytelling.

Read our full Dear Esther for Mac review for more details. This is a collaborative work of art a blueprint for future creators of interactive fiction. While other games reward the completion of puzzles or the destruction of zombie hordes, Dear Esther unravels in its own sweet time. It's a billion miles away from the test chambers of Portal. The first-person environment you explore feels like open terrain with barren moorland and rocky cliff tops. It offers beautiful graphics and glitch-free gameplay, although the word "gameplay" doesn't seem quite right.

System requirements: Mac OS X 10.6.7 or higher Intel Core Duo processor (2GHz or better) 2GB RAM 2GB storage space ATI Radeon 2400 or higher/Nvidia 8600M or higher/Intel HD Graphics 3000 video cardĭear Esther is a game unlike any you've played before. The game's system requirements are pretty high, though, so check before you buy. There are also some good expansion packs available, such as the After Dark pack that lets you develop your town's night-life, and the recent Natural Disasters, which will see how you manage to cope when the town is hit by a tidal wave or even a meteor strike from the sky. But if you're already a fan of city-sim games then you'll find that the sheer detail and control provided by Cities: Skylines will provide a real challenge. Our only real complaint is that the game could use a more thorough tutorial to help complete beginners. You can even put roads underground to avoid spoiling an area of natural beauty - although you'll need to make sure your underground roads don't collide with metro trains down there as well. Larger roads can cause pollution, and lower property values, so you have to think carefully about where you build them. As people arrive you'll need to start 'zoning' the town, allocating areas for housing and businesses, and also providing essential services such as water and power.Īdmittedly, the format of the game isn't drastically different to that of SimCity, but Cities: Skylines puts a lot of detail into systems such as transport as you're building things up. Then you create some simple roads to connect you to the outside world and wait for people to come flocking to your little homestead. Like its Sim rival, Cities: Skylines starts you off with a blank slate, allowing you to choose various plots of land, each with differing resources and geographical features, such as rivers, lakes and forests. However, Finnish outfit Colossal Order, has managed to carve its own niche in this popular genre with Cities: Skylines.
