In Urban Empire, you take control of a dynasty of mayors and lead the city and its people through 200 years of history. Establish infrastructures, plan city neighborhoods, debate political decisions in the city council, empower your people's democratic rights, or ignore them and rule supremely alone - the decision is yours!

Starting in the 1820s, build your city through five different eras, each with their own threats and opportunities. Master the challenges of centuries, face political battles, experience world-changing events and pioneering inventions, and create your own unique Urban Empire!

Urban Empire is a "City Ruler", pioneering a new genre of strategy games that combines city-building features with political intrigue and adds deep social and historical events to the mix, creating an entirely new gaming experience.



Characteristics:

- City Ruler, not City Builder: Urban Empire offers a unique combination of classic city building and political management.

- Take on the role of a mayor, be a political genius and prove your skills by defeating opposing parties and guiding your city through technological developments and ideological revolutions.

-  Choose from 4 ruling families with 5 characters each, such as the Kilgannons, advocates of equal rights and social justice, or the Sant'Elias, who focus on scientific advancement and the pursuit of knowledge.



-  Create and manage large-scale city districts and meet the needs of your citizens - such as happiness, safety and public services.

-  Introduce new ideas and technologies like the electric tram, antibiotics or video games and use your power to convince the city council of your political agenda.

- Up to 1000 dynamic events represent the upheavals of urban life: make and influence decisions on issues such as women's rights, the hippie movement and child labour.
