GO-GO TOWN
- Take on the role of mayor, and breathe life back into a beautiful animated city in Go-Go Town!
- Who said being Mayor was going to be easy?! Get those hands dirty; terraform the land, play with power tools, construct fresh roads and shiny new shops, attract tourists, and juggle any unexpected challenges and disasters… Every decision and action made shapes the future of your town.
- But even the busiest of bees need a chance to relax! Hop in your car and head into town where you can get to know the eclectic townsfolk, dance like no one’s watching, beat your high score at the arcade, indulge in a cheeky hotdog, pop a wheelie while riding your bike around, or even high-five a cow (if that’s your thing).
- The developers will be at the Indie Arena Booth at Hall 10.2, Booth F010g – E019g for the entire event!
