Slow Down With These Serene City-Building Games (www.wired.com)

I am looking for more games like this: though this list seems like a good starting point.

Anybody have any recommendations or experiences with city builders (the less-stressful variety, not like Frostpunk or something haha)

Thanks!

If you’re into retro games, the original Impressions city builders are great. Caesar 3, Pharaoh, Zeus or Emperor are essentially skins of the same game and come highly recommended.

Have you played any of the modern incarnations of those games perhaps, and if so did you like them? I've been looking at Nebuchadnezzar for a while now but could never pull the trigger, seemed always kinda meh

There’s an open source mod of Caesar 3 called Augustus, adding new features and QOL improvements. I feel equally apprehensive of the remakes, the games have a very specific vibe and I don’t want my fond memories to be tainted hehe.
