    A great toy to mess around with for an hour or two, with enough depth to the missions and extras to keep you coming back on a regular basis for months. [Dec 2008, p.52]

    Probably the most accessible SimCity to date; certainly not dumbed down. Great stuff. [Dec 2008, p.70]

    The Wii has yet again shown that it can do certain games better than its bigger counterparts. A real pleasurable experience that will end up a Wii classic.

    A few potholes aside, this SimCity is the best version yet, offering some bold additions to the classic gameplay.

    the game doesn't really have the best graphics, but it comes the opposite for music, they have catchy music in the game itself, but jeez the graphics are horrible in the game.

    the game is quite difficult too, without a guide (and not using a tutorial mode, or goals mode if that's what it's called), it's literally hard to figure out what you would have to do in the game, because growing a city in simcity creator is so much different than in the 2013 PC simcity game.

    although an engaging game, it was also a waiting simulator, which i did not enjoy, i wish you could speed it up EVEN more than just a bunch of seconds then it would go to the next day.

    and lastly, i can't with the amount of the obnoxious "An Event Occurred!" or "Level up!", it's so annoying to try to get through at the start if you're really good at building a city.    … Full Review »

    Excellent Simcity game...take your city from Caveman times through various ages, gets very challenging to keep it on top. Nice little DS game.

    If you have always loved Simcity you will love this game! It will take you 20 mins to get use to the controls, but once that hurdle is past If you have always loved Simcity you will love this game! It will take you 20 mins to get use to the controls, but once that hurdle is past you can enjoy a core Simcity game with some nice extras. If you own Simicty 4 on PC, their is hardly a point to spend the $$. But if you don't, its a must buy!… Full Review »
