Anno 1800

Surely some of you are now asking: what is a city builder doing in this ranking? Anno 1800 focuses on building a 19th-century metropolis and features a complex economic system centered on manufacturing goods through intricate production chains and then trading them.

Goods such as soap, sewing machines, canned food, and record players are primarily used to increase the satisfaction of city residents, who have increasingly high demands. If everyone gets what they want, the best thing to do with the surplus production will be to sell it as part of exports. In order to transport products and monetize them, it will be necessary to take care of establishing trade routes. The primary means of transportation are ships.

An undoubtedly strong advantage of the discussed title is its graphic design. At the time of its release in 2019, Anno 1800 was considered by many, including us, to be the most visually appealing economic strategy game ever launched. The models of the residents looked very good even up close. The same could be said about animations and terrain. After years, not much has changed in this respect.
