easy to pick up and learn, doesn't get lost in the tedium of simulation, creative time period avoids old rehash, gorgeous set pieces in a lush world
RTS combat is passable, AI is poor, rare user interface glitches
If you are at all on the fence on finding a game which can deliver a rich experience and dozens of hours of gameplay with a great mix of resource management, city building, and RTS combat: this just might fit the bill
Abstract: Anno 2205, from developer Ubisoft Blue Byte Mainz, marks the series' sixth installment. Anno combines gameplay elements of city building, economy management, and real-time strategy. Following the previous installment, Anno 2070, this latest iteration vent...
Takes city-building to the moon and the Arctic, Tons of detail crammed into every building
Repetitive end-game, Campaign story is nonsense
Anno 2205 is polished, clever, and Tages-free, but falls prey to the same repetitive, micromanagement-heavy end-game grind that's always plagued the series...

raffiniertes Mikro/Makromanagement, Verknüpfung Story mit Endlosspiel, grandiose Optik/Details, sehr gute Sprachausgabe/Soundtrack, Militärsystem optional, Management via Übersichtskarte übersichtlich, transparentere Herstellungsketten
ermüdende Nebenmissionen, kein Multiplayer, fehlender Druck durch K.I, oft zu viele Hinweise, geringer Wiederspielwert
