You are the mayor of the Great City.

Currently, you are responsible for the missile defenses used against the incoming meteor shower. However, your citizens also expect you to provide them with what they need.

This means you have to both maintain a proper missile defense, while also building new buildings to provide for your citizens, to keep their Happiness up.

Let your city be destroyed, or allow your citizens Happiness to reach rock bottom, and you're fired!

Useful tips:

The amount you earn in taxes every month is dependent on your citizens happiness (they won't allow you to tax them more if they are unhappy).

If one of the base resources goes below 0, you will take a large hit in Happiness.
