SimCity™ 2000 Special Edition

I've actaully missed playing this game and it brings back so many memories. I had no idea what I was doing when I was a kid. This game later was called back to me in the form of Minecraft. But overall great game thanks to the developers for bringing such a core part of childhood back for us.

Best way to see the basics of building a city properly.

Still delivers the goods does this game...even into the future. But every time i play, upon exiting the game, the app locks up and you have to alt tab out to close the game.

This takes me way back. I remember playing this game on my Macintosh LC III. No idea what I was doing. I always exploited a certain bug (something about the Bond rate and cheats gave me ungodly amounts of cash) but I kept trying to play. Eventually, I created a city that spanned the whole map. I must have destroyed that city at least a dozen times before I lost the file somehow. Just a few months ago I bought Sim City 4, and I remember Sim City 2000 being much more difficult and fun. The disasters had the potential to be far more devastating in 2000 (Rioters could start fires, and fires would rarely go out, but instead usually burn the city to cinders) I recently picked up this game via DOSBox only to learn that the version I had grown up with was SE, and that the music for the DOS version was far, far worse. I could barely stand it. I also could not find a working version of SE, until now. This is an excellent addition to the GOG catalog.

I couldn't be happier to see this game on GOG.com. I spent hours and hours playing Sim City 2000 when I was younger. It's a great game, and it still holds up today. It's well worth the $5.99, so if you've never played Sim City 2000 before do yourself a favor and buy it. You won't regret it.
