A BUILD UP GAME

I love games a lot, and it just happens to be my number 1 go to when I'm feeling bored. But then I can't imagine my life being the games I love 😂. Not that they are bad, but I don't want to be playing football all my life or be killing zombies or going on secret missions and fighting for my life all day long. I remember during the time of sega, I used to play Mortal Kombat a lot until my mum had to seize the game and never returned it until it spoiled in rust. So yeah if my life was to be a game then I probably would have chosen Mortal Kombat, but right now not so much. And as much as I still love the game, I can't see my life being it.

Instead I would go for a life more adventurous, never ending with something to look forward to. And by this I'm not talking about temple run or candy crush but the infamous games that allow you to build a city. Yeah, those adventurous city games always have a lot to look forward to, and that's why I don't usually like playing them at this stage of my life. Sometimes I would imagine myself really owning those houses, lands, farm lands, factories and everything you can think of. It's always nice when I play to the point I don't want to stop. Unlike other games, this particular one is relaxing and addictive and that's why I try to avoid it a lot.

I'm always building, always looking for ways to feed my city, I'm like a king that dictates how things are done. I have businesses scattered all around the city, alongside structures, machineries and systems (police, banks and hospitals) that makes the city run non stop. I'm always on the lookout for the city’s population so that my infrastructures are not smaller than the growing population. If this was my life, then I would be a very wealthy man with lots of things to keep me busy and everyone doing what I want at my beck and call. Not to sound proud, it's just how I feel I would prefer my life over always fighting for something that would just end and you have to restart.
