Anno 2205™

Store page says Russian language is supported, but the game does not actually have Russian in-game

Anno 2205 is a bit different from the traditional Anno formula, but I genuinely enjoy it. It is more streamlined and perhaps a little less complex in some areas, but the huge cities, modern futuristic setting, multiple regions, Arctic development, and eventually building on the Moon make it really fun to play. I own all the DLCs, and with all the additional content there is plenty to do. I especially like the feeling of starting with a relatively small operation and eventually managing massive production networks across completely different environments. Visually, the game still looks great, and watching a huge futuristic city operate after spending hours building and optimizing it is extremely satisfying. It might not be the most traditional Anno game, but as a futuristic city builder it is excellent. I have had a lot of fun with it and would definitely recommend giving it a chance.

Best strategy for the year 2205

Mandatory Ubisoft launcher, mandatory account creation, and the launcher is bugged to hell to boot, in a "you can't start the game" way. Do not buy

pretty enjoyable for those days you just want to build something and don't want to beat your head against the monitor trying to figure out traffic issues or plan out production lines

I think this could be a great game as i lked the setting better than 1800 but unfortunately this game has been abandoned by ubisoft. The council voting is gone and now npcs keep spamming you to vote which does not work anymore and is really anoying.

I would give this game a thumbs sideways if I could. I picked it up on sale after enjoying both Anno 2070 and Anno 1800, and it generally follows the Anno theme of city building that I very much enjoy. As with the others, you build buildings, level up your residences, and as they level up start to construct increasingly complicated supply chains. Unlike the other two games however, there is no setting up of merchant ship routes between islands. Any resource produced in any sector counts towards the sector total, and any resource extractor can be built on any suitable resource deposit. This takes away several layers of strategy, you don't have to worry about which islands have which fertility, nor do you have to worry about the physical path of your trade routes and keeping your merchant ships safe. There is naval combat, but it generally takes place on a separate map, and doesn't really have any impact on your economy. You have the chance to spread out across multiple maps in one game, like Anno 1800, which I like, and going to space is cool, but in general this game just doesn't seem to be as well thought out as others in the series. My advice would be to skip this and buy Anno 1800 instead. If you already have that one, please join me in lobbying Ubisoft to release a graphics-updated version of Anno 2070, much like was done recently for Mass Effect and Fallout 4. Both of those games are miles better than this one.
