Bigpoint's RamaCity promises to attract the attention of a wide array of
target groups: Due to its intuitive controls and easy-to-navigate game
start, typical of casual games, players will immediately feel right at home
in RamaCity. Various game options, such as the ability to expand their city
and customize it to their needs, invites fans and players of classic
city-building simulation games to switch over to RamaCity. Visually stunning
graphic design captures the essence of real city life.
"We have great expectations for RamaCity and even believe that our
latest title will trump the success of our other casual games such as
Farmerama or Zoomumba!" explains Tobias Reisberger, Chief Games Officer at
Bigpoint. "RamaCity is very unique because it takes the fantastic features
of city-building game and wraps them up in one casual game, and thereby
allows us to delight an even larger community for RamaCity!"
In RamaCity, it's up to players to build a city that is just as
beautiful as it is efficient. They have to properly arrange residential
homes, industrial zones, recreational facilities and commercial units, so
that their Urbies don't have to live next to stinky factories. Players will
constantly have to reposition their buildings in their rapidly expanding
cities. Taking on the role of mayor, players must watch out for their
citizens' well-being: Urbies are enthusiastic consumers who like to spend
money on items players produce in the game, such as shoes, rubbier duckies
or soccer balls!
In RamaCity players don't only have to interact with their citizens, but
they also have the chance to communicate with other city mayors via
social-game features such as a buddy list. The social interaction provides
healthy competition and will help motivate players to beautify their city as
much as they can! That's why they can switch up the colors of their
buildings and literally paint the town!
No matter how players envision their dream city, they're bound to have a
fantastic time in the free-to-play browser game which is available now at
the official website: http://www.ramacity.com. The game's Facebook page
(http://www.facebook.com/ramacity) offers players another option to
shoot the breeze with other RamaCity players and find out the information
they need.
