READ BEFORE BUYING
Pros:
Misc:
Fun: Like, nothing else to it, so cool
Buildings and structures:
There is a monument, it usually doesn't fit in well in most cities, but it can be used well
There is a load of cool structures that can revamp your city, such as radio towers, you can use structures in this game with a big industry vibe, it makes your industry areas look so much cooler
Mechanics:
Nothing specific to mention, but it's good
Cons:
Nobody cares that Natural Disasters destroy your city, like, oh I'm sooo surprised, BUT here is the issue:
Minor but can be severe issue:
You don't get disaster response immediately, and many many many cities I make, have disasters before I hit that point, so you are screwed if that happens.
BIG BIG ISSUE:
This can DESTROY your city if it is centralized city, or if you have a lifeline road, unless you always have the ability to replace it at all times, if you spent a ton of money, and then it gets destroyed, the only way to come back is by using cheats to rebuild it, which leads to the biggest issue, that you CAN'T stop
**HUGE** issue
Disasters strike beyond city limits, including highways, and it can destroy a highway outside your city, and then you are dead. Over. Gone. You are powerless to stop it unless you have 81 tiles WHICH IS BROKEN, OR you can buy the tile which usually you can't
Annoying Thing
You can't go back and say "wait wait wait, I see a 10.0 tornado coming, and it will obliterate my 75,000 pop city, wait wait wait, don't do that please" disasters always come, even if you reload the game, or disable them, once a disasters spawns, it will go. So just make multiple save files
