Anno 1800: A Rich City-Building Experience
Anno 1800 is the latest addition to the beloved Anno franchise that brings together features from its 20-year history. This city-building game offers a rich gaming experience that includes a story-based campaign, highly customizable sandbox mode, and a classic Anno multiplayer experience. Strategy and city-building games have been a staple in the PC gaming industry, with their deep options and mouse-based controls making them a natural fit for the platform. However, transitioning these games to consoles has proven difficult, as developing a functional control system for a controller can be a challenge. Despite this, Ubisoft's Anno 1800 Console Edition stands out as a game that successfully makes the jump to consoles while still feeling logical and simple to play. While accessing menus may require a bit of button-pushing and d-pad nudging, mastering the basics of the game has been an enjoyable experience, making Anno 1800 Console Edition a satisfying addition to the strategy/city-building genre on consoles.
