Cities: Skylines – Green Cities for PC is a yet another expansion to Cities: Skylines – a popular city builder strategy game developed by Colossal Order. The expansion for PC requires the base game in order to work.
As the title might suggest, this add-on allows a player to create environment-friendly cities. For this expansion, developers have prepared a wide selection of new attractions, the most prominent one being the set of over two hundred new buildings.
The DLC described herein introduces e.g. shops selling healthy food, photovoltaic cells on the buildings' roofs, as well as electric cars driving on the streets. Also important are the new specializations for particular districts – they can be developed as one progresses through the game. All this is well complemented with four new types of regulations. Moreover, a player can erect a monument to honor their services to the environment.
Even though in Cities: Skylines – Green Cities for PC one can erect entirely new and eco-friendly cities, there is nothing standing on his way to utilize the new solutions for the infrastructures he has already built.
The PC release of Cities: Skylines – Green Cities does not implement many changes into the game's audiovisuals.

Game Ratings for Cities: Skylines - Green Cities Video Game.
GameWatcher: 8.5 / 10 by Josh Brown
I'll it, it's taken me this long to feel the need to expand Cities: Skylines above it base offerings. Now I understand why. Each expansion brings heaps of free content to owners of even just the base game, so you might only pick up the full bag if it focuses on what you need. For me, Mass Transit feels unnecessary; whereas for others that may have been all they ever wanted. Green Cities is like sugar in this case. I don't need it, but I want it.
TechRaptor: 6.5 / 10 by Chris Anderson
This expansion pack is for the real fans of the franchise, but it's a bit of a meager offer when compared to previous expansions. There is a decent amount of cool stuff in this expansion, but everything except the new waste disposal options feel all that necessary.
Invision Community: 10 / 10 by Nathan O’Grady
You may call me biased, and yes, on some level that I am. I am both a fan boy and an academic in the area which this game focusses on. However, here is the crucial, unbiased fact that I think seals the deal for what makes this DLC in particular special. All of the additional content for Cities Skylines has been good, but if a new player was choosing just one package to go in on as their first addition to the game, this is the one I would point to. The level of additional content is the greatest.
