Welcome to SimCity Classic. (email downloaded game)

Enter SimCity and take control. Be the undisputed ruler of a sophisticated real-time city simulation. Become the master of existing cities such as San Francisco, Tokyo, and Rio de Janeiro, or create your own dream city (or dream slum) from the ground up.Your city is populated by Sims - Simulated Citizens. Like their human counterparts, they build houses, condos, churches, stores and factories. And, also like humans, they complain about things like taxes, mayors, taxes, city planners, and taxes. If they get too unhappy, they move out; you collect fewer taxes and your city deteriorates. The success of the city is based on the quality of the city you design and manage. Whether you take over an existing city or build your own, you are the Mayor and City Planner with complete authority.

 

 

Goals of SimCity :

Perhaps the main goal of SimCity is for you to design, manage and maintain the city of your dreams.

Your ideal place to live may be a bustling megalopolis, lots of people, lots of cars, tall buildings: high-energy, high-density living. Or it may be a small rural community, or a linked group of small communities providing slow-paced country living.

As long as your city can provide places for people to live, work, shop and play, it will attract residents. And as long as traffic, pollution, overcrowding, crime or taxes don't drive Sims away, your city will live.

 

Scenarios :

Included with SimCity Classic are eight scenarios. Each scenario is a city that is either the victim of horrible planning or about to the the victim of a natural disaster. After you load a scenario, you have a limited amount of time to correct or repair the problems. If you are successful, you will be given the key to the city. If not, you may be ridden out of town on a rail.There are many goals to be pursued and reached in SimCity. If one strategy doesn't work, try another. There are a million stories in each city, and you write them all.

 

One of the rarest versions of Maxis' genre-defining SimCity series, Simcity Classic is a good Windows 3.1 version of the original game, ported by Azeroth.The original SimCity is a classic, and this is a translation of it to the Windows environment. The gameplay is familiar, system specs need not be powerful (unlike for the newer Sim installments), and gameplay is a bit smoother than on the standard DOS version. Building a city from scratch is fun, and allows a person to experience the joys of being a ruler. Build cities "organically" like London, or build your city according to a larger over-all plan, like Washington DC.

 

Recomendation : The game that started it all period. fun, complex, and fascinating. Dont miss this little gem.
