PRESENTING LYhOKO LEACI'S...

GALESFEBURG

Why, hello there. I'm back to the Romanini Reviews. This time to talk about a really interesting city journal, which is made by Lyhoko Leaci... and us!! That's right, today we will talk about the unique city of Galesfeburg.

PLOT

GB-40-5.jpg

The territory of Galesfeburg and it's neighboring small towns. There's still pretty much to explore around here.

The journal accounts the creation and growing of the city of Galesfeburg and it's neighboring small towns. The main city was founded by Myonan colonists, located south of Yanar River, overlooking the Melemon Ocean. During the updates, we see the city grow, expand, and the creation of other towns, like Nyuumau and Bredi.

And during the city showing, there's glimpses of an sace exploration that, so far, hasn't been really clear but intriguing enough to see the story unfold.

SETTING

GB-2-6.jpg

Early Galesfeburg, August 46 EL. Lyhoko goes so far in the Myonan cultture that he created it's own vocabulary and time counting.

The cities are simple, but very pretty. Seeing Galesfeburg grow it's an satisfactory experience, mostly because we have influenced that grow. Lyhoko makes sure in every update so far to ask it's followers which part of the city should be expanded or what changes should be made in one determined area.

One of the nicest touches of the CJ it's the Myonian language. I still doesn't figured out what language it was based, but it brings that nice sensation of going to an unique place

VISUALS

A walk in Downtown Galesfeburg, around Staar Ave. Yep, we made this.

It's such and interesting CJ because the city maintains Lyhoko's visual aesthetics of other cities made in it's other CJ's - Euro houses, a lot of trees, a mix of old and futuristic buildings, the Myon's mythology, language and timeline, and space stuff. Creates an pattern that make all these cities exist in his own universe.

Want an example? Go to

Galesfe City and you'll see what I'm talking about.

.

And the feel of the places is good: when you see a rural area, the great mixes of plantations make us believe that we are surrounded by crops and plants. When you go to the city, you have that fill of a growing, but movimented place, that suburban feeling, or hi-tech feeling. It manages to be beliaveble and enjoyable.

FINAL IMPRESSIONS

Lyhoko Leaci and it's friendly avatar

photo-51417.gif?_r=1356030763 has made one of those feel-good city journals. Sure, it's not groundbreaking or impacting, but it doesn't need to be. Such simplicity it's what makes this journal so special and one of the most watched in Simtropolis this days.

RATING: SIMPLY GREAT

I don't know how's "SIMPLY great" in Myonian. If I knew, I would put at the rating.

;)

So, that's it. Thanks for watching another update of the Romanini Reviews. I hope i keep updating these more, I love doing this and I'm seeing so much great jobs these days.

Anyway, go to

Galesfeburg and give Lyhoko Leaci a holla!!

:D SEE YA NEXT TIME!! :D

I was not expecting this, thank you!

 

Some notes:

Myonian is descended from Old English, so it's somewhat similar to English, but the grammar is more like German.

 

"Simply great" would be "Onþiŋa mikul" in Myonian. (or "ONÞIŊA MIKUL" for the all caps version, replace Þ/þ with th and Ŋ/ŋ with ng if necessary)

 

Also of note is Zukish, another language that has no relation to any language on Earth.
