Project Highrise is a spiritual successor to SimTower. Building from humble beginnings to a massive skyscraper. Players have to manage power, water, gas, air, phone, and air conditioning to units in the tower as well as managing noise levels, smells, visibility, and availability of extra services for tenants. While the game gets the basics right, it is far from perfect. Some of the dev's choices for pathfinding are baffling. Tenants will walk to the far end of your tower where there are stairs and complain there isn't an elevator when their starting point was right next to an elevator. An employee of a shop whose shop was right next to an elevator had a thought bubble, "I wish there was an elevator here..." The game also does not let you stack elevators next to each other. Tenants will only take the outermost elevator. Workers will take an elevator that has a shaft from the floor they start to their destination and get off several times and change elevators for no particular reason. People complain that the area is too noisy, but when you surround them with noise-cancelling doors, but they still say the area is too noisy. So I am not sure what the game is looking for. If you are looking to fill that nostalgia void from missing classic games like SimTower and want a new take that adds complexity and depth to the tower-building genre, you can have a good experience. Just know that it is flawed and since it is 10 years old, it is unlikely to get any more updates to fix issues and add content. What you get is what you get.
So I rate this as top-tier in it's genre, it has all the depth an complexity that you would want it to have based on the premise - basically being a large building planning professional but then having to act as the infuriated Facilities Management boss too It makes you grumpy in all the good ways for a game of this type, OBVIOUSLY your sleek plans forgot a few small factors that could completely crucify your intentions when it comes to operations! What I'm saying it has a lot of deep, inter-connected web-of-management decisions and prioritisation needs which is what makes this a really, really good management game. One of my most enjoyable experiences in management games. I loved how you can make all the things work with a rudimentary understanding, but can make them work way better when you fully understand their functions, benefits and cross-stream relevance. I love how you can build progressively smarter - and more profitable - towers based on different user needs and priorities. It really does push you in the right way to focus on what the design challenge was - it's smart, thoughtful, detailed and nuanced in a very satisfying 'build this here now then get ready for... " kind of way. Thoroughly loved this but then it's right in my current favourite spot, and its achievements are also gettable, especially if you don't waste time on free-builds and save that Monster Perfect Tower until you've done enough scenarios. Make that free-play goal your final personal Shangri-La-Shard and sit back with that final satisfaction! Mods are good too, but be warned all usage invalidates achievements!
It's a neat game, but it's also a total jankfest and packed to the ceiling with artificial BS to make the game "challenging. Things like constantly broken elevators and AI that's too stupid to use a different one, so they all just stand there getting debuffs intil it's fixed. Then there's the massive numbers of restaurants required and they have really stupid hours. The game doesn't even tell you what the hours will be before you select them to fill a vacancy. Retail stores are the same way with convenience stores closing at 7pm. 7pm! And don't even get me started on the maintenance workers always whining about coffee if you don't have 397 restaurants that serve it on 76 different schedules when there's a damned coffee machine in their office. It even has coffee in it! This office hates smells, that one hates noise... Another one hates smells AND noise. Smells from restaurants will travel at least two floors in either direction. In a commercial office building. They don't travel through elevator shafts or stairwells like they realistically would, though. Nope, they go straight through the floors themselves, presumably floors with a solid barrier of steel decking and several inches of concrete between each one, never mind the floor coverings, furniture or ventilation systems on those levels. It is a neat game, though, like I said. It's a puzzle game and it's pretty fun to fit it all together, but there's so much eye rolling nonsense baked into it that it quickly becomes tiresome and stupid. On steep discount, it's worth it. Full price? Absolutely not.
