GAME FEATURES
Detailed Graphics: incredibly detailed animations / graphics bring the world to life, animation sequences with rendered graphics provide close-up detail and individual interaction
Unprecedented game play depth lets you control entire worlds across the scope of the land down to the last human character
Dual Levels of Interaction:
Management/Global - This provides the framework for financial planning and resource management
Personal/Hands-On - Control the individual characters that execute your plans- Enormous cast of characters:
Undesirables - Hippies, psycho clowns, burglars, and mobsters, among others, who act as a de facto standing army and can be deployed against the competition. Gamers can picket and shut down opponents factories and "rub out" important personel.
Desirables - Police, builders, foremen, tenants and others who build up the city and create the community, in addition to defending against undesirables sent by your opponents.- Combines elements of sims/strategy with the boards games Risk and Monopoly
Humorous and unique circumstances create worlds with realistic and hilarious situations:
