Family values.

<span class="bold">Urban Empire</span>, a political city-builder where you steer your city's fate exercising shrewdness and nepotism, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Caring about a city because it's your home is one thing, but the stakes are much higher when you are a living part of its history. Since the early 1800s, your family has been managing, expanding, and shaping this city, carefully planning its course and making the harsh decisions that must come from a mayor's office. The duty now falls to you: sway the right people with your political influence and diplomacy skills, navigate the numerous dynamic events, and help build a better future for your citizens. Will you manage to keep your dynasty in power for the next 200 years, or will your opponents and the city's struggles get you kicked out of office?

Guide your beloved city through two centuries of prosperity and establish a timeless <span class="bold">Urban Empire</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Releasing early, eh? Sneaky bastards. :P

Probably will buy this in the near future. I would like to see a city builder with a mafia setting.

I'm going to be honest. This looks like someone took a long look at CivCity Rome, SimCity, Banished, and Caesar.

Then they decided that rather than keep all the fun parts of each of those, that they would instead take a page from such thrills as checking carefully over forms in Papers, Please, the absolute excitement of the Democracy series, and the amazing macromanagement of MOO3, plus a little bit of the UNIVERSE SPANNING spreadsheets of Eve Online.

If I ever get the urge to do virtual taxes and budgets, then I'll consider this title.

Does it really say "Be a Mayor Player" in the trailer?

Hope that's supposed to be a pun :D

It's also the game's subtitle/slogan, so yes:

It definitely was. (Especially since I'm pretty sure they've used it in other promotional material for the game.)
It's not a particularly clever one, though. :)
EDIT: Goddammit, Grargar.

Fairfox: Should 'Restaurant Empire' evah be remade (or a successor arrives) it needs to use teh slogan too but drop teh 'r'.
But "Be a Mayor Playe" doesn't make any sense.

This is a game that really got me interested back when it was announced! I hope it's as good as I hope it is.

tinyE: I can't wait to see how many DLC will they release.
Fixed it a little bit so as to reflect modern PC gaming era.

You shouldn't buy it until you do.
