CTMayor offers three distinct simulation modes, each focusing on a different era and style of city management: • Ancient Rome Mode Rule as a provincial governor of the Roman Empire. Plan and grow prosperous cities, satisfy citizens’ needs, and respond to disasters, divine unrest, and hostile forces. Inspired by classic Roman city-building simulations. • Classic City Mode Design and manage a modern city by zoning residential, commercial, and industrial areas, building infrastructure, and collecting taxes to support expansion. Maintain quality of life, balance the economy, and monitor environmental health to prevent decline or bankruptcy. Inspired by early city-building classics. • Transport Company Mode Create and operate a comprehensive transport network using trucks, buses, trains, aircraft, and ships. Connect towns and industries, deliver cargo efficiently, and reinvest profits to expand your network. Spanning 1950–2050, your objective is to achieve the highest performance rating.
