Of course, SimCity, SimCity 2000, and SimCity 3000 were challenging as well, but SimCity 4 may be the toughest yet. Pollution, garbage disposal, decaying power plants, and other fun byproducts of civilization will regularly torment mayors as well. Wealthy denizens want the best health care, education, services, and, to top it off, low tax rates. Players can attempt to market their city to high-wealth citizens and businesses - a good plan - but it's tough. Sure, a soccer stadium is nice, but the resultant $400 per month is pricey. Later in a city's life, with highways and developed mass transportation systems, high density zones are an attractive option.Ĭity finances are the biggest challenge for any mayor, and SimCity 4 ups the ante with expensive city services and "rewards" that inevitably cost money. The medium density zones seem to be the best bargain, allowing moderate density without too much expense.

Deciding, early in a city's life, how to zone can be difficult. High density zones are more expensive and cause traffic problems, but bring in more tax money. When zoning, as in SimCity 3000, mayors can choose from low, medium, and high density zones.
It's interesting to incorporate a new town's geography into the design, but individualized city plans were possible in earlier incarnations of SimCity too. Building multiple cities is time-consuming, and the need for city after city squelches the individualized personality of each borough. The concept of a megalopolis is intriguing, but in practice it's mostly boring. Having neighbors offers immediate benefits for a city's industrial and commercial businesses, too, since they will be able to easily export and import products. Need more water? Build an aquifer next door. The biggest change from SimCity 3000 allows players to construct a metropolis of interconnected cities within "regions." Want a neighboring city to be a giant landfill? Build one. With the fourth installment of a series, however, players should wonder if there's any reason to keep playing. SimCity 4 offers complicated budget, business, and transit systems along with the expected (and great) gameplay of the SimCity series. Getting the stubborn "sims" to follow your lead, however, is a tricky assignment. Any buffoon can destroy a city with the help of tornados, Godzilla, or a flood. The genius of SimCity, however, has always involved what you, as the mayor/god, can't control.
