What is Heian City Story?
As the director of a city in historical Japan, you place shops, temples, and other facilities to attract residents and raise land values in this top-down city-building simulation. Nearby facilities can form street combinations, and Guardian Spirits help defend the city from monster attacks. Each in-game year ends with a culture rating.
For you if...
- +you prefer relaxed, single-player city management
- +you enjoy experimenting with building placement and combinations
Not for you if...
- −you want a city builder without defensive battles
- −you prefer fast-paced play over gradual town growth
