Classic city building fun

Fun, easy to get into. I wish there was the Windows Version but this DOS version is still very good, especially if you can grab it for a couple bucks on sale!

PC Classics

A 1993 classic in the 1995 re-release, DOS version. Not a realistic city building simulator by any means, but a well crafted and satisfying gameplay nonetheless. You are going to fight a budget instead of aliens for once.

My childhood!

Somehow felt like it had more character than its sequels. Now, GOG just needs SimCopter and Streets of Sim City!
