This article is a complete guide for beginners to City Tycoon Story. It is brought by the player Sommelier. It contains analysis and suggestions on the layout, occupations, professional streets and other gameplay in the game. It is suitable for new players to watch.
Hello everyone, this is my first time making a guide and I am not very familiar with it. If you have any questions, please correct me. First of all, I want to make a statement: this guide is only suitable for novice players. This guide is not helpful for players who are pursuing scores.
First, here are my passing scores and in-game screenshots:
My game is played with the following layout and this article is based on this layout
What I need to emphasize about the layout is:
Terrain selection: Mingming City
This layout diagram is referenced from the Internet and modified.
Except for the building that I marked in red and must be clicked to rotate, other orientations will not have any other impact on the game content. You just need to ensure that there are roads around the building.
For roads near residences, my suggestion is that apart from the need for upgrading, there is no need to build the same road over large areas. Extensive construction will only worsen our early financial situation. We only need to build corresponding roads next to the residences that need to be upgraded. Can.
The black part in the picture is the mountains, the blue part is the lake, and the gray part is the road.
This layout will not unlock all professions, and you need to build relevant buildings, office buildings, and residences in blank spaces on the map later to unlock them.
There is no need for demolition in the early stage, that is, there is no need to demolish some buildings in the early stage in order to keep the layout exactly the same, which will make you lose more money in the early stage. You must ensure that you have enough money before demolishing it. My suggestion is to build related buildings from the center to the right and then to the left.
1. Residence
First of all, this is a business simulation game. Game income is mainly obtained through residents’ rent and residents’ activities. For questions about house rent and income in the game, you can refer to:
There are certain conditions for house upgrades, which depend on the residents' income and nearby roads (whether the road is asphalt, red brick, or stone). As long as the corresponding conditions are met, the house can be upgraded automatically without any operation.
2. Residents
There are two residents at the beginning, and the residents we choose will come to the town later.
The number of residents also affects the level of the city. For the level of the city, please refer to the figure below.
Reaching a certain city level will unlock residents and occupations, which is of great significance for us to discover buildings and occupations.
If we want money to come quickly, we need our residents to have enough income, and the income of wages depends on the occupation type of residents. Residents’ occupations are discovered by working in office buildings, so we must be certain during construction It is necessary to consider the distance between the building that unlocks the relevant professions and the office building. The easiest professions to discover are freelance professions, ordinary employees and those that are upgraded based on them. For specific unlocking, please refer to the figure below:
After the corresponding professional proficiency reaches 100, it becomes a full-time job.
To unlock the corresponding professions, some also need to use the professional street. The conditions for unlocking the professional street that I have compiled are as follows:
It should be noted that the effects of professional streets have a range. After the construction is completed, there will be obvious prompts in the game. If your layout is based on my layout, then don’t worry, all professional streets will be unlocked.
My layout cannot unlock all professions and characters. This requires you to artificially build relevant buildings in the blank spaces of my layout to unlock relevant professions. Rest assured that some professions necessary to unlock facilities will be unlocked as the layout unfolds. Finally, the facilities All will be unlocked. I will not go into details about the unlocking progress of the buildings here.
What I need to highlight about the unlocked buildings is:
In the Simplified Chinese version, some facility names have been changed, please refer to the following:
Garden - shrine, ancient pagoda - three-story pagoda, sitting lotus statue - big Buddha statue
Highlighting the unlocking of several buildings:
High-rise office building: Office land price is 300, automatically upgraded
Hot springs: Hotel must be rotated and stones placed behind
Stadium: Health Street + Sports Athletes + 5 Professional Streets + 10 Professional Streets
Supermarket: Souvenir Street + Chef + Fisherman/Hospitality + 3 full-time occupations
Airport: 17 professional streets + 5 drivers + 2 marksmen + 1 speaker + 12 full-time professions
Rocket launch pad: 2 airports + 11 scholars + 3 engineers + 3 investors
I summarized the unlocking of some special characters:
Two characters will come in about 100 years, and the last one will come in 200 years.
3. Activities
Activities are also an indispensable part. With the discovery of professions and the creation of professional streets, activities will be unlocked, and relevant benefits will be obtained from the activities. Please refer to the figure below for details:
There are also two events for us to upgrade city points and increase income:
