  • Reviews - 27 January 2026

    I have a new game I'm working on. It is about private jets. A tycoon game. Should be coming out a little later this year. After that I might do ECB5. I'll make lots of improvements. I'm hoping the next two games I make do not take forever. Game deving on a single game for years takes a lot out of you. I'm one positive review from mostly positive. It's been sitting at 23 reviews for like a year. I check every day.

  • Version 1.3 released - 20 September 2024

    Pushed out a update today. Fixes some late game issues. Some issues with the research screen and the game settings. The game settings where crazy low by default. Which made the game look horrible. I never seen it that way as I had always selected options at some point. If you never went into the options screen the game settings where set to way too low by default. I'm still supporting this game even as I work on my next game. Positive reviews really help a lot. Even if its just a "Good game" thumbs up is fine. This game took 3 years of full time work to make. Anyway if you have any questions leave them in the community hub. Any bugs you find report them in the hub. I'll be sure to get to it.

  • Version 1.2 - 12 March 2023

    Final planned update. This game has gone on for 4 years. I'd like to thank everyone for playing the game. The best way you can support an indie dev is by leaving a positive review. Even if that review is just "good thumbs up". The more positive reviews the game gets the more people Steam will show to the game to. Minor bug fixes and a major performance upgrade. New trees too that are much better looking. Thank you everyone for everything. Dev vlog in the game. If you find any bugs in the game report them to the community hub. I'm still supporting this game. So while I might be done with planned updates an unplanned update could happen at any time.

  • Update 1.1.3 - 15 September 2022

    Got a review that reported a bug and spelling mistakes. I ran the whole games text though a spell checker and fixed the terrain editing bug. I should have used the spell checker on the games text a long time ago. I am still supporting this game. If you find anything wrong with it post in the community hub and I'll get on it. Update was pushed out in about 12 hours after the report.

  • Version 1.1.2 Live now - 22 July 2022

    Did a round up of minor bugs in the game that have been found to date. I am still supporting this game with updates. I posted a dev Vlog in the game. I smoke a rather nice cigar in the video. Thank you all for playing the game. If you really want to help please leave a review. That will insure Steam shows the game to more people.

  • Version 1.1.1 is now out. - 29 May 2022

    Version 1.1.1 is now out. A number of bug fixes. I've also updates the glass shader on the buildings and adjusted the lighting. There has also been a big engine update. Post any bug reports in the community hub. Any suggestions are welcome. The game is in a real good state now. Go try the update.

  • Version 1.1.0 - 18 December 2021

    Version 1.1.0 is now live and the hotfixes are finished. This is the last update of the year. Enjoy the soundtrack in the game folder and start getting those achievements. Get the details in the dev vlog. I'm also smoking a huge cigar again!

  • Hot fix for 1.0.0 - 12 November 2021

    There where a couple bugs in the release version that have now been fixed. Also the game should give you a better idea as to why you can't build something. Tool tips will give reasons now. Thank you all. If you enjoyed the game Please leave a review. That does more good than anything. Working on Version 1.1.0. Lots of quality of life improvements on the way.

  • Version 1.0.0 now live - 14 October 2021

    Version 1.0.0 is now live. The war system is in the game now. Voice acting for the tutorial. All buildings have now been replaced. New sound track. This is the biggest update I've done. Finally the game is finished. I will be leaving early access soon. If you have followed this game this long think of leaving a review. It would mean so much. Thank you all for the support, the bug reports and advice. It has been a blast.

  • Final update soon. - 8 October 2021

    All of the old buildings have now been replaced. The war system is finished. All that is left is a new trailer and voice over work to be done. Big update soon. War system will be in the next update. New sound track. All the buildings are finished. Bug fixes. I think I got them all now. Voice over work will be done very soon. City streets have more items added to them. Street lights, trash bins, benches, fire hydrants, ect. Its been almost 3 years working on this game. I'm feeling anxiety having it almost finished. Wish me well.

  • War system being worked on - 24 September 2021

    What I've been working on for the past few weeks. The war system is almost finished up. I have to replace the rest of the buildings and a few minor things and the game should be ready to go gold. Tell me what you all think. Also remember there is nothing you can do to show support more then leaving a review. Thank you all for enjoying my game. I'm going to have this all finished up hopefully by the middle of next month.

  • Update Version 0.9.5 - 25 August 2021

    Second last update before leaving early access. The game is in a great state now. Full release in a month or two. Get the details in the dev vlog.

  • Version 0.9.0 - 16 July 2021

    Lots new in this update. 1: Cloud save. 2: Blimp, jet plane, sail boat going around the city. 3: UI over haul (Drop down menu rather then tool bar) 4: New terrain system. 5: volumetric light and fog. 6: All 31 placeable buildings have been replaced 7: you can rotate buildings 8: Many minor improvements.

  • please leave a review - 21 June 2021

    If you enjoyed the game please leave a review. The game needs 3 more English language reviews to receive a rating on the store page. This is really important for the games success. I know its a lot to ask of the players. It would mean a lot. Thank you all for playing my game. I've put 2 and a half years into the game so far. Got a few more months left to finish it off.

  • Next update - 5 June 2021

    Next update is going to be a big one. UI is being reworked and a new tileset for the terrian is being done. On top of that the buildings in the game are being redone by a much better artist then me. Here are the first two in the game now.

  • Epic City Builder Version 0.7.5 - 30 May 2021

    Major update is live. 1: Tutorial improvements. 2: Nuclear war 3: Interface improvements 4: Major performance increase. 5: Almost all bugs out of the game.

  • Version 0.7.1 - 15 March 2021

    First major update is live. Disasters have been added. They are only triggered by the player and the undo feature works with them. Some interface improvements have been made. Some quality of life improvements. Language support is back as is. Some of the translations are bad so I'm not posted them as supported at this time. They will be replaced later. There where very few bugs to fix as the game was in a good state at release. Get nuking your city. Remember you can always undo.

  • Request features - 2 January 2021

    The game is now in early access. I have a very long todo list of things I plan on adding to the game over the next few months. I'd like people to comment and tell me what you want me to work on next. Let me hear it.

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $19.99
  • Highest observed: $19.99

Epic City Builder 4's USD price history spans from Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $19.99, the highest is $19.99, and the first visible tracked price is $19.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Epic City Builder 4's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $19.99, from Sep 24, 2026 through Sep 24, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $19.99. The latest run records $19.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $19.99
  • Current list price: $19.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Epic City Builder 4 at $19.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
