    this game had something, but it wasn't.. that good in my opinion.

    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

    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.

  1. Some games run into problems trying to be everything to everyone, but SimCity Creator suffers from the opposite affliction. It doesn’t try to be anything to anyone. Well, that’s one thing it does right.

    If you have a PC(or Mac), you're better off tracking down the aforementioned "SimCity 4" for a few bucks. [Nov 2008, p.101]

    This would have been a perfectly respectable SimCity game if the controls had been given more attention.
