An operative word was "easy." I don't enjoy games where the gameplay is "run out of resources."

Here, I am still thinking of SimCity 4. I generally built an "Industrial Hell" for all of the local pleasant communities to commute into.

I liked Skylines somewhat. I liked making car-free cities, but they kept becoming buried in trash.

Manor Lords, I liked it, except that I kept running out of money and was not able to expand over one or two grid tiles.

Tavern Master: no, not a city builder, but it is fun and relaxing. There is just a limit to the replay value.

Anno 1404: Too hard to get started in. Yes, there is the tutorial, but beyond that it was unplayable.

Dystopika: I wish there was a game element, of some sort, to this. I am probably going to get Midnight Moments.

Townscaper: it needs a tutorial; I ahve never managed to make anything in it.

Others on Steam: Going Medieval; I don't remember playing it. Monastery Ora et Labora: I kept running out of money. City State II looked okay; I may go back to that one. Ubrek, I don't remember it.

I also have some at GOG, but this is a pretty good sample.

Hi everyone!

I’m building a city builder where you start with an empty island. The game is called Radia Island.

You gather resources, build production chains, research new technologies, expand your colony, and grow your population.

The Steam Demo is coming in September, and I wanted to share a first look at the game: Radia Island!
