Strategies to Turn Your City into a Thriving Megapolis

Follow The List Of Main Tasks First

Global City certainly has plenty to offer even at the start of your city management adventure. The tutorial is very helpful to introduce you to the basics but the pace at which your city grows can still be a little overwhelming, especially for complete beginners. Everything you do basically earns you EXP, enabling you to reach new levels and each new level reached gives you access to more and more structures and features.

At some point soon enough, you will basically be left to proceed with taking care of business on your own, with a lot of liberty as to which structures to build and upgrade as well as which resources to mine or produce.

While absolute freedom to decide is always welcomed and goes in line with the idea that you can move forward however you choose to do so, it is best to have something that works as your guide towards progressing more efficiently instead of second-guessing your every next move.

Global City provides you with a ready list of tasks to accomplish. You can access tasks via the assistant icon at the lower left side of the screen. The most basic objectives relating to the growth and development of your city can be found under “Tasks”, which is the first tab of the window. This is where a seemingly infinite set of objectives appear that guides you on what to build or produce next.

Under the Tasks bar, several objectives will be available at a time. How they are arranged on the list bears little significance and you can choose to pursue any item on the list, for starters. This is very much comparable to main quests in an RPG where completing a task can give rise to a connected task later on. As new objectives become available, though, it will still be easy to distinguish the earlier tasks given that some of the new targets will be impossible to progress due to resources that can only be produced or generated by pursuing the earlier quests.

Each task you accomplish earns you EXP and coins as rewards and as you will continuously be in need of both, pushing to accomplish one quest after another is important. EXP leads to reaching new levels that unlock the rest of what Global City has to offer and as much as coins stand as the basic currency in the game, you will quickly come to discover just how much of it you will need to develop your city.

There will surely come a point when you simply will find it temporarily impossible to complete every task on the list. In such scenarios, you can still engage in accomplishing other goals as well as engage in various other activities.

Tasks serve as your guide towards progression but it hardly encompasses the whole of what you can do to develop your city. Pendency of tasks may be attributable to lack of coins or specific resources that can be generated or produced over time and there are numerous ways to make progress towards acquiring them.

Expand And Organize

One of the clear indicators of growth and development in your city is its physical expansion and with every lot you unlock comes more space for you to put up more structures. Territorial expansion will naturally be very easy at first, requiring only materials you can easily mine or produce. As your territory expands, however, acquiring new lots will become more and more challenging, having unique territorial expansion resources that will not be readily acquired within your city.

A typical part of tasks set before you in Global City relates to constructing different structures within your city. You can easily access available structures via the hard hat icon at the lower right side of your screen. Residential buildings start as the most basic structures as you need to increase population to man jobs in the commercial units in your city. Water and power are essential as well to ensure the city’s survival and will have to be aptly provided for the city to function.

There are, of course, numerous types of factories to unlock and construct as you make progress. These facilities provide you with various resources that are needed to build and upgrade different structures and can also be sold for coins. Commercial units require specific number of people, on top of power and water supply, to generate coins and EXP for your city over time.

Although amenities may initially look like cosmetics that make your city more beautiful, these items actually serve a purpose. Some residents require certain level of amenities and you need to satisfy the condition for them to count towards your population.

Considering all these different structures, maintaining balance across the interrelated needs is of utmost importance. As you expand your city’s territory and have more free space in your hands, though, you may want to take a bit of time to organize everything before actually using the free areas to put up needed structures.

Global City actually lets you alter your city’s layout quickly and conveniently. From how roads are built down to where each structure sits, you can make changes as you please at any time. There is a road icon on the right side of the screen that lets you pave new roads with ease as well as remove them as you wish.

Additionally, tapping and holding on any structure will let you pull it up and relocate it to whichever location it can fit in. While this function will let you fully customize how your city will look like, the best use of this feature is to, of course, organize your city in such a way that it functions as best as possible.

With amenities impacting residential structures, it becomes important to devise a plan where each amenity can be fully utilized by as many residential buildings as possible. With this in mind, it is recommended to group structures as well by their type, like grouping residential units together just as much as you would bring factories close to one another, if possible.

Keep in mind as well that each building must be near the road so planning the layout of your city is of great importance. Whenever you plan layouts, always consider it not just for the city’s present situation especially since expansion will be available for quite a long time. Even if there are still plenty of areas and territories to unlock in the early part of your journey, you can already scroll in different directions to see just how vast the city map in Global City actually is.

Nurture your city’s growth by interacting with lively inhabitants who offer diverse business opportunities. Undertake quests, complete orders for rewards, produce vehicles, and advance your city's prosperity. Collaboration is key, form alliances, converse in English, exchange resources, and provide mutual aid within the game to enhance your chances at tournaments and win grand prizes.
