“When we first launched Cities: Skylines, we knew it was special, but we never dreamed how far players would take it,†said Sandra Neudinger, Cities: Skylines Product Manager at Paradox Interactive. “The community is the heart and soul of the game – we’re just here to give them the tools they want and need to make it their own,†added Mariina Hallikainen, CEO of Colossal Order.
