    The best game out there for casual players, or players new to the simulation genre.

    Although this is a great game, I’m not sure if it’s a great 40 dollar game. With no online component other than an online leaderboard and some very simple yet addicting gameplay, perhaps 40 bucks is stretching it.

    It doesn’t offer the personality or adjustable details we’re used to in its predecessors, but it’s nicely balanced and a big package, with over two dozen campaign scenarios and endless sandbox recreation.

    So while the game's atmosphere, its intuitive interface and visual splendor are very commendable, it simply seems to lack more direction in terms of design. It's like the developers had all the tools, but lacked more imagination.
