SimCity™ 2000 Special Edition

Great game, great price, perfect port. My only wish is that the proper Windows version would be released on GOG rather then the DOS version.

Yes, this is the DOS version as stated by nearly everyone in other reviews, but the game still holds up today and sees me once again spending multiple hours on it. I love it and for the discounted price paid, it's money very well spent. I may consider buying the other games in the series if discounted sufficiently.

I installed this on my Windows 7 machine and moved the folder to my Macbook Air. It runs great in Boxer (DOSBox). Hello Sim City 2000! Goodbye spare time.

This game is a fine example of one which holds up to the test of time. Granted, the controls do feel dated, and take a little time to get used to, but, once you're accustomed to them this game is still as addictive as any game out there. Remember, this game is 20 years old, and the controls reflect that, but, they work very well. After 30 minutes of play you'll almost not notice that fact. Don't be afraid to search for a guide, I found a good one from 2000ish which had me building a mega city in no time. I lost the next 8 or 10 hours *drooling over my keyboard. If you remember getting this as a freebie with windows, or simply want to see what all the fuse is about, I'd suggest giving SimCIty 2000 a try. *make sure to let the dogs out before you start playing.

I only sold my original floppy disc version about a year ago, which hadn't run on any Mac I owed for about 15 years! I took a punt and gambled my £1.19 and I can't believe this actually runs on MacOS Catalina! and with a reasonable screen size! I was expecting atiny pciture that I could barely see but it's as good as I remember. Awesome!
