To unlock Future Cities, you must have completed the in-game tutorial and reached Level 30.
Tap on the NeoMall site between your Vu Tower and mountain area. If you meet the unlock requirements, the Future Cities Advisor will appear to help you bring your city to the future.
At the NeoMall, you can buy rare items like Cheetah Speed-Up Tokens, Vu items, and area expansion parts. You can only buy these items with NeoSimoleons. When you unlock the NeoMall, you’ll get a starting stash of NeoSimoleons for a shopping spree.
Check out our NeoMall Tips & Tricks video.
Once you’ve built your NeoMall, you can start building OMEGA homes. Tap on the residential building menu to see the new OMEGA zones.
OMEGA homes have more residents than normal buildings and will help send your population sky high. They produce NeoSimoleons to use in the NeoMall. You can also use OMEGA homes to expand your NeoStorage and NeoBank capacity. Use OMEGA items to build and upgrade OMEGA homes.
When two or more OMEGA homes in close proximity to each other are upgraded to the maximum level, they’ll form Sky bridges.
ControlNet: ControlNet powers OMEGA homes and has its own coverage area. Find it in the ControlNet Service menu.
NeoBank: Unlike other residential buildings, OMEGA homes produce NeoSimoleons, so remember to collect and save your NeoSimoleons in your NeoBank. Find it in the Government - Services menu.
Drones: Stay alert to crime, health, and fire emergencies in your OMEGA homes by building Drones. Find them in the Drones Services menu.
OMEGA Services: Don’t forget to build Power, Water, Sewage, and Waste Management Services for your OMEGA homes. Check out our OMEGA Services Tips & Tricks video.
With OMEGA items, you can build and upgrade OMEGA homes.
You can produce OMEGA items in the OMEGA Research Center or buy them from the NeoMall.
Here’s a list of OMEGA items you can get:
Heads-up: If you have too many of a particular OMEGA item but none of the building plans call for that item, try refreshing the plans. Tap the job, then tap the Refresh icon to request new plans.
You need two buildings to produce OMEGA items: the OMEGA Lab and the OMEGA Research Center.
OMEGA Lab
You can build up to six OMEGA Labs in your city.

To store your OMEGA items, go to OMEGA Storage in the Government - Services menu. If you need more room, tap Increase Capacity. Check out our OMEGA item storage Tips & Tricks video.
You can only sell OMEGA items to neighboring mayors. You can’t sell them in the Trade Depot or the NeoMall.
See a bubble over an OMEGA building? Tap it. Your Future Cities Advisor will tell you what your fellow mayor wants to buy. Tap I’ll do it! to accept the sale or No thanks! to reject it.
