While it's never too early to teach kids to respect the biosphere, the same may not be true of introducing them to complicated simulations such as Simearth: The Living Planet (FCI, for Super NES), which has more variables (temperature, precipitation, etc.) than a polynomial equation.

Super Play Magazine UK
The thing you've got to understand about Sim Earth: The Living Planet is that - no matter how ambitious, original or worthy the game may be - it simply isn't any fun at all to play. It's clunky, it's slow, it looks rubbish, it fails to explain itself properly in use, but - most of all - it fails to properly give yo anything to do. Overall verdict, - Poor presentation is the least of the sins of this overambitious and fatally flawed eco-sim. It's simply tedious in the extreme to play, and should be avoided at all costs.
