Cities: Skylines II (2023)

The sequel makes service allocation, housing types and residents' choices useful ways to read a neighbourhood. A district with an attractive skyline may still be expensive to serve or awkward to reach, and local policies can influence how people travel. Follow those relationships rather than treating every new building as proof of success. This is a broad city simulation, so the story is inferred from household needs and urban systems, not a written plot for every citizen.
