Game Boy / Game Boy Color · 2019 · by AntonioND

uCity is an open-source, free homebrew city-building simulation game created for the Game Boy Color by AntonioND in 2019 under the GNU General Public License v3.0. Bringing traditional urban management mechanics to an 8-bit handheld platform, the game places the player in the role of a city mayor. Players are tasked with zoning residential, commercial, and industrial areas, constructing transit infrastructure, placing power plants, and connecting electrical grids to support a growing populace. Success involves balancing tax rates against public service costs while responding to citizen demands and natural disasters. The title includes customizable random map generation alongside pre-built scenario challenges to test long-term economic planning.
