05 May 2023

TruFin is pleased to announce that its subsidiary Playstack Limited (“Playstack”), a leading UK games publisher headquartered in London, has released Cityscapes: Sim Builder. This new game was developed by Magic Fuel Games Inc  (“Magic Fuel Games”), a US-based developer acquired by Playstack in 2022.

Out today on Mac, iOS, and Apple TV and available exclusively from Apple Arcade, Apple’s subscription service, Cityscapes: Sim Builder is the first city-building simulation game on the platform.

Assuming the role of City Mayor, players manage the inception and development of their cities, incorporating urban planning, sustainability measures and more to fulfil their citizens’ needs while realising their own creative visions. 

Harvey Elliott, Chief Executive Officer, Playstack, commented:

Cityscapes: Sim Builder is a game created by veterans in the simulation space and epitomises the best qualities of the genre. Importantly, the game has a strong focus on the significance of sustainability - a real-world issue which players are striving to improve within the world of the game. We’re excited to be working with Apple and its Apple Arcade platform on the launch of Cityscapes: Sim Builder and beyond.”

Kip Katsarelis, Chief Product Officer & Co-Founder, Magic Fuel Games, said: 

“Having co-founded Magic Fuel Games several years ago, it’s been great to go back to our roots and make a city-builder of PC and console quality on mobile platforms. Many of us have fond memories of playing these open sandbox-style games in our youth: with Cityscapes: Sim Builder, we wanted to recreate those experiences for a whole new generation. We’re proud that our first project as part of Playstack is to bring this fantastic new city-builder to life on Apple Arcade.”
