Deal | No goals, no stress: 95%-positive cyberpunk city builder hits $3.50 for the first time on Steam

Dystopika strips away virtually everything traditionally associated with city builders. Instead of worrying about money, electricity, or the needs of your citizens, players are free to build a towering neon-lit cyberpunk metropolis without distractions – and at its lowest price yet. According to SteamDB, the 2024 city builder is 50% off for the first time, bringing the price down from $6.89 to $3.44.

There are no fixed objectives in Dystopika. Instead, the focus is entirely on creative building. One of the game's most distinctive features is that the city doesn't grow entirely by hand. Whenever players expand buildings or place new structures, nearby buildings automatically evolve alongside them, eliminating the need to manually place every single detail. Neon signs, towering holograms, advertising airships, and other decorative elements help create the city's cyberpunk atmosphere. Players can even import their own images and display them on in-game billboards.

Try Hard Guides awarded Dystopika 9 out of 10, praising the game's exceptional creative freedom. Buildings can be placed anywhere without having to follow roads or other construction rules, and can be moved, rotated, or resized at any time. The reviewer also highlighted the game's immersive cyberpunk atmosphere and relaxing soundtrack. However, the lack of objectives and traditional management mechanics may reduce long-term motivation for some players. On Steam, the title – rated Playable on the Steam Deck – has also been very well received, with 95% positive reviews from around 3,500 user ratings.
