And then there were four...!
Our team of busy datasaurs has been crunching the numbers all weekend, and the dust has settled. Congratulations to the following four finalist cities!
Introducing London, New York City, Paris and Hong Kong:
Thanks so much to everyone who nominated and shared why your chosen city was special to you. Weve loved revisiting so many Mini Metro memories over the past few weeks. But only one city can be the winner, and now its up to you to make the final call.
Which city from Mini Metro will be transformed into a challenging new map in Mini Motorways? Head over to our website to cast your vote and well find out the winner together on May 8th PST!
In Mini Metro, you take on the task of designing the subway layout for a rapidly expanding city. Your city starts with three stations. Draw routes between these stations to connect them with subway lines. Commuters travel along your lines to get around the city as fast as they can. Each station can only hold a handful of waiting commuters so your subway network will need to be well-designed to avoid delays.
The city is growing. More stations are opening, and commuters are appearing faster. The demands on your network are ever-increasing. You'll be constantly redesigning your lines to maximise efficiency. The new assets you earn every week will help immensely — as long as they're used wisely.
Eventually your network will fail. Stations will open too quickly. Commuters will crowd the platforms. How long the city keeps moving is up to you.
Key Features
Compelling, constructive, hectic, relaxed gameplay. If that makes sense. It doesn't though, aye? You just gotta play it.
Three game modes: Normal for quick scored games, Endless for stress-free sandbox play, and Extreme for the ultimate challenge.
Eleven real-world cities to design subways for (London, New York City, Paris, Berlin, Hong Kong, Osaka, Saint Petersburg, Montreal, São Paulo, Cairo, and Auckland). Each has a unique colour theme, set of obstacles, and pace.
Random city growth, so each game plays out differently. A strategy that proved successful last game may not help you in the next.
Each game's map is a work of art, built by you in the classic abstract subway style of Harry Beck. If you think it's a keeper, save it, tweet it, show it off or make it your desktop background!

Trains! Did we mention them yet?
Demo
You can check out Mini Metro for yourself and play a game on the London map in the demo. The demo uses the Unity webplayer, so you'll need the Unity plugin (Windows and OS X only unfortunately).
