changedProcedurally generated maps : this is self-explanatory: they will depend on some parameters that manage the amount of resources and terrain types available on the map.
changedRandomised starting conditions to choose from : This means that apart from the amount of resources available on the map, you will also be able to choose some buildings you can start with, the resources available at the start in your storage, the resources that immigrants will bring with them etc.
addedRandomised goals and rewards to choose from : A key part of the game loop is setting Goals for yourself to achieve (eg: transport 100 Coal by Train) and you will receive an associated Reward from it. It can be an increase in efficiency, or your industries will process goods a bit faster etc. These are the small increments that help you improve your city. There are other more sizeable upgrades, such as unlocking new buildings but that happens via a typical Research Tree.
