I have little attention span and a like of city building games. Dwarf Fortress and Tropico were too long for me. Is there any way to have a fast-paced city builder? Any purchase suggestions? I own a mac, a PS3, and I am looking forward to Clockwork Empires in 2013. Until then?

I don't know if it's exactly what you're looking for, but maybe Towns?

Another option is Gnomoria, which is more true to Dwarf Fortress, but far, FAR more user-friendly and graphically pleasing.

Unlike Dwarf Fortress, however, it isn't free.
