Summary
While Capital City certainly doesn't unleash anything never before seen, the game does mesh plenty of tried and true mechanics into a fun overall experience. There are some varied approaches to take as you angle for victory and there's a good deal of game play packed into this $20 title. I certainly recommend Capital City for folks who enjoy lighter fare, aimed at the entire family.
