Summary
The future is cities. Cities are efficient. Cities allow you to concentrate a lot of people into a small space, and in a resource-hungry world we need that. Project Highrise is your chance to be part of that.
Where city builder sims have you spread out and eat up as much of your environment as possible, Project Highrise makes you go in only one direction: up. It's about design, yes, but it's also about resource management because as both architect and developer, it's on you to keep the people inside happy, too. That means including basics by laying powerlines and water pipes and phones and cable TV, but it also means building in laundrettes and diners and copy services and janitorial care.
As your building thrives, so will your cash flow and so will the different kinds of units available to you, creating a virtuous cycle of wealth generation and building improvement. To attract the top-paying residents you need to have top-of-the-line facilities, and that doesn't come cheap.
With this architect's edition you get content that wasn't in the original PC release too, including the Las Vegas DLC and content packs Miami Malls, Tokyo Towers, London Life and Brilliant Berlin.
Will you construct exclusive high rise offices for the business elite? Will you create luxury apartments that are playgrounds for the ultra-rich? Will greed get the better of you and prompt you to build a tenement building that trades happiness for buckets of cash? Whatever choices you make, you're going to be left thinking 'just... one... more... floor...'
