:: CLUNKY BUILDINGUbisoft has announced ANNO: Build an Empire, the first mobile entry for the city-building strategy series. The controls have been built from the ground up in order to make building cities compatible for the iPad, and like its predecessors the game will require strategic planning that will force players to weigh the pros and cons of their city planning.
Players will start off with one island, building it up to ensure that its citizens are both happy and healthy. Once skilled enough, they will be able to use their city-planning abilities on additional islands and manage trade routes with nearby neighboring islands. Social elements from previous games in the series will also be brought in, giving players the chance to challenge friends and foes alike.
ANNO: Build an Empire will be compatible with iPad 2 and higher and will require at least iOS6 and a connection to the Internet in order to play when it releases.
