Boomtown Africa

Welcome to Gambia! In recent years this small West African country has experienced a literal gold rush and the city of Serrekunda is booming because of it. So far most investment has gone into private sector real estate while public infrastructure and services have been long overlooked. With the opening of the new Gambia Estuary Bridge it became painfully obvious that the current transport system isn’t suited for the city’s hustle and bustle. You have been tasked with improving the traffic situation and growing the city before this narrow window of opportunity passes.

The city believes in you. Don’t let them down.. or do so and try again until you get it right.

• Population over 50,000
• Traffic flow over 85%
• Repay all loans

• Population under 25,000
• Play 250 game weeks
• Have less than -50,000 money

Africa in Miniature Content Creator Pack assets are used in this scenario which is why it is listed as required. No other DLCs, content creator packs, mods, or assets are needed tho. You can try to play the scenario without the pack but I can’t guarantee that it will work or that it will be fun. Also make sure to enable the "Vanilla" style in the content manager before playing this scenario. If you don’t do this most high density buildings and some service buildings won’t load in.

This is my first ever scenario for Cities: Skylines. I think it’s an underrated gamemode and that most players are put off by the default scenarioes that come with the game. These are very basic and quite bad in general which is a shame. With this upload my goal is to perhaps revive the scenario genre a little bit and show what can be done if you put a bit of effort into it. I should also say that I wanted to try and make a challenge to restore the mangrove wetlands but couldn’t figure out a good way how with triggers in the scenario editor. Consider it an extra challenge if you made it this far into this description text. The city in this scenario is entirely fictional and any reuse of placenames like Serrekunda, Banjul, and even Gambia itself should be seen as such also.

If you only want to build on the map, it’s called Gambia Estuary and you can find it right here. It’s a slightly refined version of the map in this scenario without any DLC requirements.

Here is the savegame version of the scenario that lets you sandbox it and use mods. For some reason it starts with 8 million in the bank. Have fun you filthy little cheaters 😉
