Mini Cities [Classic]
Getting started from an empty plot
StepYou begin with nothing — no buildings, no roads, just land. Choose from over 100 unique buildings and start laying out your city. Citizens will appear and begin driving to destinations once roads and buildings are in place.
- Browse over 100 unique buildings and choose one to place.
- Connect buildings with roads citizens travel by car, so roads between buildings let them get where they are going.
- Watch your citizens interact with their world as they drive to their destinations.
Reading what your citizens need
TipsCitizens interact with the buildings you place and drive through the roads you build. Keeping citizens happy is what drives the city forward.
- Watch which direction citizens are trying to travel — it hints at what kind of building they are looking for.
- Think about whether residents have somewhere to live, somewhere to work, and somewhere to spend time.
- If citizens seem inactive, consider whether a key type of facility such as a hospital or commercial building is missing.

Playing with friends
CheckMini Cities supports multiplayer city-building in a shared room. The room has a hard cap, so plan ahead if you have a bigger group.
- Confirm your group has six or fewer players before everyone joins the same room.
- If your group is larger than six, have some players create a separate room and build there.
