Design and Build the City of Your Dreams

Fight crime, unemployment and pollution. Control budgets, transit and population. Create industry, shopping centers, parks, stadiums, seaports and airports.

Pre-built cities include: Tokyo, San Francisco, Bern, Hamburg, Rio De Janeiro, Detroit and Boston.

Confront diasters -- floods, earthquakes, fires, tornados, meltdowns and monsters.

Real-time graphics and demographic mapping keep you constantly informed.

SimCity includes maps of famous cities on disk, open to your design.

It's up to you to save the population, or engineer it's destruction.

SimCity is Alive! SimCity is a model that works, but no toy train set ever looked this good! Lay roads and traffic moves. Supply electricity and smokestacks churns.

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.

Whether you take over an existing city or build your own, you are the Mayor and City Planner with complete authority.

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, the city deteriorates.

Laying the foundation for fun

Shake hands, kiss babies and don't let monsters destroy your city!So you want to be Mayor? Well, here’s your opportunity! Begin with empty land, start a town, name it after yourself, and build it into a city. Then see if you can sustain enough growth to build your city into a megalopolis! As Mayor, you have the tools to overcome any challenge. Whether it's taxes, zoning, crime, transportation, fire control, pollution, natural disasters, or other critical issues, the duties as Mayor are yours. For a change of pace, try saving a city burdened with problems by playing one of the eight built-in scenarios. Time is passing and every decision you make has future consequences—so get to work!

A sophisticated city simulator where the future depends on your decisions!

Start with a fledgling town (you name it yourself) and build it into a metropolis. Or, take on the challenge of rescuing a city overwhelmed with problems. Either way, taxes, zoning, crime, transportation, education, fire control, and other critical issues are in your hands. Time is passing, and every decision you make has a future consequence. Your assistant, Dr. Wright, can help you make the right decisions. Just ask!

Surprise catastrophies also threaten your growing city—fire, earthquakes, airplane crashes, even a giant Koopa who has a nose for industrial pollution!

Will you build the ideal city? Or will disgruntled citizens leave you with a ghost town?

Battery inside game allows you to start where you left off.

SIM CITY no es un juego, es un simulador en el que podrás crear tu propia ciudad.
Tendrás que tener en cuenta: el terrorismo, la polución, las zonas verdes, los aeropuertos, las zonas industriales, es decir, absolutamente todo; si lo consigues hacer bien, ganarás las elecciones y podrás seguir jugando; si no, tendrás que marcharte de la ciudad y dejar que otro lo intente.
SIM CITY ha sido comentado en prensa mundialmente conocida como New York Times. Herald Tribune. etc.
Haciéndolo uno de los simuladores más esperados.

SimCity™

Een fantastisch simulatiespel, waarbij de speler de toekomst van een stad helemaal in eigen hand heeft!

Begin met een klein stadje (geef het zelf maar een naam) en laat dat vervolgens uitgroeien tot een wereldstad. Of red een stad die door problemen wordt overspoeld. Alle beslissingen over zaken als belastingen, ruimtelijke ordening, misdaadbestrijding, transport, onderwijs, brandweer en andere belangrijke onderwerpen moet de speler zelf nemen. De tijd verstrijkt en elk besluit heeft gevolgen voor de toekomst. Dr. Wright staat altijd met goede raad paraat. Raadpleeg hem dus gerust!
De stad wordt overigens ook bedreigd door onverwachte rampen als branden, aardbevingen, neerstortende vliegtuigen en zelfs door een reuze-Koopa die een fijne neus heeft voor industriële luchtverontreiniging!
Zal het lukken de ideale stad te bouwen? Of trekken de ontevreden burgers uiteindelijk weg uit een spookstad?

Door een batterij in de spelcassette kan met dit spel worden doorgespeeld vanaf het punt waar eerder gestopt is.
