In this video, I take a first look at Urbek City Builder, a highly successful city builder game, and we explore the design tricks that it uses to keep players engaged and entertained. From its resource management systems to the way it encourages organic city growth, Urbek City Builder does a few things differently — and in my opinion, that’s a big reason why it’s so well-reviewed. If you enjoy game design breakdowns, first impressions, and a little bit of city-building chaos, stick around. _______________________________________ Want to support the channel? ▶️ Join my Patreon - http://www.patreon.com/GameDevGuide ▶️ Subscribe - https://www.youtube.com/mattgambell?sub_confirmation=1 ▶️ Need Help?
