You can build residences, offices, power plants, train stations, airports, landmarks and more.

Beware of disasters, as your city will eventually face doom in the form of fires, earthquakes, meteor strikes, UFO attacks, monsters and more!

Based on real life cities, you must build all the landmarks before the city collapses.




BalanCity was released in August 2016 for Windows, Mac and Linux. The mobile version will be released by the end of 2016, early 2017.
