Anno 2205

Playing Anno 2205 feels like I was running a megacorporation instead of a single city. The “multiple regions” system is brilliant: temperate zones, arctic production chains, and then the moon. Building an integrated corporate empire where every region has a role. Each zone has its own look, challenges and music, so jumping between them feels like juggling different subsidiaries of one giant company.
I also really enjoyed the stock market: buying shares, defending your position and seeing your corporation grow on that layer fits the fantasy of being a CEO of your own futuristic megacorp.
The one weak spot is combat. It’s not terrible, but it’s clearly the least interesting part of the package: shallow, repetitive, and it feels a bit disconnected. Also, a sandbox split from the main campaign would have been a good feature.
But if what you want is a polished, atmospheric sandbox about building a futuristic megacorp across Earth and the Moon, Anno 2205 absolutely delivers.

Excellent game. For the life of me I cannot understand people who have negative reviews. I'm lying. Some of them I do understand. The guy says you can't extract enough water to build what you need. He probably was so short-attention-span he never got to learn the booster modules we can attach to all production facilities. In any case never trust people who write reviews with less than 10 hours in a game. This Anno game is futuristic so some mechanics are different to the other anno games and they should be. It makes it a better game. For example the naval battles and how they give you resource not available anywhere else. Building on the moon and the necessity for meteorite shields, Energy transfer from one geography to another. Researching via the space station. The mechanic of training and dispatching astronaut scientists to the space station. All of these add up to make it a brilliant game.

A very nice anno, simpler but much more streamlined than its predecessor, there is tons of stuff to do and its gonna take a lot of hours to finish everything, very enjoyable 7.5/10

The graphics are beautiful, and the city building of the game follows through for that futuristic feel. However, the combat is tedious and arcade-like, with the enemy faction seemingly coming straight out of a comic book with the typical villain style. I can easily agree that this game was targeted mostly for the simple-minded in terms of diplomacy and combat, with a higher focus on city building - which means the story is severely lacking in immersion.

I recommend only getting on sale, and be warned that Ubisoft Connect rewards no longer work - this means no access/unlocking of certain corporation logos and changing of your command ship colour.

Honestly quite like it. Its a very casual Anno with no real condition resulting in a loss. For some it might be lacking depth in gameplay which I understand. But if you dont really have the time to get into an Anno game like 1800 and still want a fun city builder, this works great. Buying up the stocks of your competition was especially fun for me since it gives you BlackRock powers.
I saw alot of negative reviews regarding ubisoft connect. As allways with ubisoft games its kind of luck based. I didnt have any issues in this game but you may have some :(.

It's alright. The end game is just building massive amounts of housing. That's it. Build houses then update supply chain to supply houses, repeat. Lacks depth. Feels soulless after 50+ hours. But you do enjoy spending your freetime interacting with a lifeless machine, don't you?

i've been lost for hours playing Anno, I've got all of them and haven't got a favourite because they all have their own great play points , I love the quests and the story line in all of the Anno series, easy game play, easy controls, its a great game to play :)
