In this video, I'm going to build a city to see if I can survive without water in Cities Skylines.

Normally, when you build a city, people need food, water, and shelter.

But what if they didn't have any water?

No water means no water.

But that's not all.

There's more.

No water also means no poop removal.

In Cities Skylines, with no water, and with poop everywhere, what roadblocks would stand in my way at creating the perfect utopia?

So with that question in mind, I began my adventure.

I started a new game with the first city, Dry City.

I began by removing the water.

I set out on the first day by constructing a road off the highway and a power plant.

As mayor, what plans could I lay out to give our town the best possible chance with my designs at the urban sprawl?

No water meant the homes would never rise or be upgraded in their levels.

And no poop removal meant it would be generally unpleasant, and people would always want to leave.

How could I incentivize enough people to stay to create a sustainable city?

So I decided to focus on building wide at first.

I laid out my plans.

Residential, commercial, and industrial.

I constructed my first set of pipes along with a poop dumping pipe.

Sure enough, no poop emerged from the pipe because there was no poop in the town to begin with.

And the people didn't even have enough water in the first place to produce any poop at all.

But gradually, as people first arrived in the town, they would produce a small amount of poop to start.
