The water is gorgeous, the landscape is fresh and lush, and the animations are simple but delightful,” our reviewer wrote. “The narrative of the campaign is unique and a story worth following, and the various tech-trees that unlock as your population grows are straightforward and logical.”
“The use of a class system is what sets this apart from most city building games but the general lack of advanced mechanic tutorials leaves players at a disadvantage if they haven’t played economic city builders before,” they continued. “Anno 1800 takes time to learn, but it’s time well spent.”
