Singleplayer

The second large expansion for Cities: Skylines, an economic strategy game developed by Colossal Order.

Snowfall is the second expansion for After Dark, some of the novelties introduced in Snowfall were given at no cost to the owners of the vanilla game in the form of a free patch.

Gameplay

Cities: Skylines – Snowfall for PC, PS4 and XONE introduces changing weather and temperature which actually influence the functioning of our city. As temperature goes down, citizens use a lot more power to heat their homes and workplaces. Our task is to face the fluctuating demand for electricity. We prevent any potential problems by developing power plants and transmission lines or by deciding to build a municipal central heating system. Apart from rain or fog, which are both purely cosmetic, a heavy snowfall can pose a real challenge for the mayor since it may paralyze the street traffic. The players have to ensure that snow removal be performed as well as to provide an adequate number of snowplows. But snow is not only a difficulty; it can also be used to build new kinds of parks and special buildings. All of the above options and structures are available on the new winter-themed map.

PC Gamer: 83 / 100 by Christopher Livingston

With more pronounced effects than the first expansion, Snowfall adds new challenges and complexity.

Full Review

GameSpot: 7 / 10 by Brett Todd

With the addition of Snowfall on top of the After Dark expansion released last fall, Cities: Skylines is starting to take shape as an expansive city-building franchise that offers something for any wannabe mayor. One caveat here is that you don't really get a tremendous amount of content, and that what's present is pretty much relegated in specific maps, leaving the impact of this expansion on the overall game fairly minimal. That said, the winter wonderland atmosphere does freshen up the visuals so even while this expansion is not essential, spending a little time in a virtual snow globe city remains awfully appealing.

Full Review

Game Debate: 8 / 10

Overall there's a lot more to love here in Snowfall than there was in the slightly meagre After Dark, and from a visual standpoint alone it's almost worth the price of entry just to build a winter wonderland. Adding in the numerous additional points of depth such as clearing roads, heating homes, and building trams and you've got a meaty add-on on your hands. One year on, Colossal Order has done it again with Cities: Skylines - Snowfall.
