An amazing game

I remember getting this game for Christmas sometime I think 12 years ago and spending endless hours of playing it. I might still have the original CD somewhere but I do not know for sure. A great game that I have a lot of good memories from and a part from the nostalgic aspects I still find it great fun to try build better and better cities

Classic Builder

You don't get much better than an original sim city, especially SimCity 2000, this game has made the basis for all the simCity's to follow, and have made the world of developing a old to new society a epic challenge from when you first start off with your first 50,000 to your big bucks. Just like most economic games it about how you can improve life, economy, and safety of your city and still make a profit. While not as great as SimCity 3000 or 4. This game still has a cutting edge difficulty that keeps you hooked. And crashes far less then its older brothers.

Truly an engrossing, smart game

I first played SimCity 2000 in the 4th grade (1999); it's such a smart game, it was used as an educational tool for us kids to learn basic management and problem-solving skills. Almost 13 years later, and I still find myself sucked into this city-building masterpiece. If you've never played this before, you absolutely must!

Best Sim City

For me Sim City 2000 is the best Sim City of the series. So I was surprised that I can buy it here, working on new systems. I hope GOG will also release Sim Copter very soon, that I can build citys with Sim City 2000 and fly through them with Sim Copter.

The game is simply amazing.

I remember firing this up years ago, and enjoying myself to the fullest after that I lost my copy and didn't play for ages, but I've always remembered how much fun I had in the short time I did play the game. The simple concept brings out something in you that just makes you love running that city (and destroying it with a giant enemy robot at the end). It's still as awesome as I remember and it's worth another look.
