SimCity™ 2000 Special Edition

I loved this game growing up, and every other successful sim city game followed this model. If you like classic games and have never played this, you need to buy it now. Worth 6 stars out of 5.

Works perfectly, download it, load it up and let the memories come back to you. Still as frustrating yet addicting as ever, got angry at my first city so I destroyed it! Can't get enough of my simcity! I highly recommend this, best part is that you can save without crashing!

Who needs 3d graphics with HD support? This game's all about building your city, satisfying the needs of your citizens, and having fun. I remember on May 3rd 1995 I found this game in my friend's collection and played it with him. I spent so many hours over at his house playing this game with him, my mother often told me to stop playing baby games and go outside. I then told her this was far from a baby game...

SC2000 is a classic and works smooth. Back in the days, it was a 5 star jewel after which, over the years, some revised and improved versions were released, especially in terms of sound and especially for MacOs, before the arrival of SC3000. The one on GoG is the original DOS version, with all the pros and cons that this entails.

I've tried getting SimCity 2000 working on Linux several times and I've tried the DOS, 3.1, and 95 versions, all with varying issues. I finally got GOG's SC2K DOS version working perfectly after a few tweaks: Find the game folder in Wine and edit the `dosboxSC2000.conf` file with the following changes: ``` fullscreen=false # switches to windowed mode autolock=false # frees mouse cursor from DOS window output=ddraw scaler=normal2x forced # w/ ddraw, this doubles the size of the window ``` I also wasn't getting music until I went into "Game DOS Settings" on launch and under Sound Effects changed "MPU-401 General MIDI" to "Sound Blaster Compatible".
