It was a series first work released with Macintosh, and even Amiga, IBM PC (MS-DOS and OS/2), FM TOWNS, X68000, PC-9800 series, Windows 3.1 were released later. It becomes considerably simpler than after ages made. Capacity of game in itself came for one piece of floppy in those days. The game screen is the top view that looked at the town from right above, and the concept of the altitude does not exist except land and a difference of the area of the sea.
As well as the later series, there is the distinction such as low density, the high density in the industrial district a house, commerce, and the size is fixation of 3*3 trout. The infrastructure is limited to electricity, traffic connection, and the concepts such as education, medical care, water supply, the garbage do not come up. A church (for Super Nintendo a school) and the hospital come up, but the city does not have the merit in particular with this work.
The tendency that land prices are regarded as important in comparison with a work of the latter period is founded, and almost none of the house, the business areas may develop when land prices are too low. Land prices rise so that the center and a green tract of land, the area of the sea of the town are near, and land prices lower if, on the contrary, pollution and crime rate are high.
The railroad in this work is as almost effective as a road. The railroad has high construction costs and maintenance cost, but the play method that often replaces a road with a railroad as measures of a traffic jam and the pollution to aim at the large-scale city is used because I do not produce pollution, a traffic jam (there is the play method to develop only by a railroad without spreading a road entirely from a beginning). This product does not still have the station which is a road and the difference with the railroad that came up after "SIMM city 2000".
Eight "scenarios" reviving the city that got up of a disaster and the problem other than the mode which a city makes as oneself likes it from the beginning in the soil without any building before a time limit are prepared for. In addition, the monster of the disaster that a monster hits is Tokyo scenario from the appearance particularly; from a user exclusively called "Godzilla" [the source required].
The terrane editor who could change the topography freely was released (PC-98,X68K version). In addition, the high score competition to make full use of this terrane editor, and to compete for the best population was carried out ("microcomputer BASIC magazine" November, 1991 issue). The population of the champion was 1,751,140 people. I can send 1 million people even if I do not use a terrane editor, but am impossible depending on the choice of the first map because the maximum number of population is fixed by early land.
Well-thought commerce, industry, a routine to judge whether you really compare the number of the living number of people with each house local demand number of people, and a town develops, or you decline are used from tax or land prices. A stadium, a port, the airport are effective in taking away 20,000 upper limits at commerce, industry, the upper limit of the demand for house number of people each. Because it is calculated with the number of people that the number that pulled 655,360 people when this each residence population surpasses 655,360 people lives in, it is resident <<demand when in condition, and there becomes little dissatisfaction of the town, and there is the bug that approval ratings come to exceed 90%.
Building to come up
- A residential area, commercial areas, the place where inhabitants called industrial ground - "SIMM" live in. Land prices and population fluctuate progressively. The industrial ground produces pollution. It is necessary to locate each district in a good balance to increase population.
- Road, track - traffic. There is the building which does not grow up when I do not contact with a road or a track (or does not function). The maintenance cost is all necessary every year. Construction costs, the maintenance cost is lower in a road, but the road produces pollution and a traffic jam.
- I maintain the electricity from electric wire - power station to each building. There is the building which does not perform growth (function) when electricity does not go.
- I plant trees in the place having park - nothing and raise land prices. There is the effect to reduce a crime indirectly. Originally there is the part becoming the green tract of land, and there is an effect same as a park.
- I lower the crime rate around police station -. The maintenance cost is necessary every year.
- When a fire occurred around fire department -, I suppress the spread of fire of the fire and let you die down early. The maintenance cost is necessary every year.
- When stadium, port, airport - city develops to some extent, I am necessary. In the stadium, a port, the airport produces pollution in a traffic jam.
- Heat (coal) power station, nuclear power plant - power station. It is necessary to supply electricity to a building. Construction costs are lower in the thermal power station than a nuclear power plant, but ability for supply is low and produces pollution. Nuclear power plants do not usually produce pollution, but meltdown may rarely quite occur.
Scenario
- Dullsville 1900 Boredom
- I make the deserted town which lost vitality 100,000 cities within 30 years. Only as for a quarter $ 5,000 of other scenarios, only this scenario has a fund. In addition, not the place name which it is the slang that dullsville means "boredom", and exists,…It is the joke that I hung suffix -ville and suffix -ville of the meaning of "a town, the city" meaning a thing, a place, a state with という property.
- It is the manuals such as 98, and it is said, "I am gentle", but because there is little early money in hand, there is little flexibility for the clear, and the clear is not impossible ([pivot source] which the hints-and-tips book that I wrote as impossibility was in those days), but a degree of difficulty is not easy for you.
- San Francisco 1906 Earthquake
- I revive it from damage of the San Francisco earthquake within five years.
- Hamburg 1944 Bombing
- I revive it from the damage (expressed as an all-at-onceness fire in the game) of the Hamburg air raid within five years.
- Tokyo 1957 Monster Attack
- I revive it within five years from the damage (I tread a building) due to the huge monster which I hit suddenly. With the joke that a message "inviting an ultra garrison" to is over (only the part of "the ultra garrison" is Japanese) (such a message is really over the TOWNS version with upside-down type symbols by ,○ at the outbreak of the monster invasion disaster). By the way, 1957 of the stage setting year is in the year when overseas edition "monster king Godzilla" of the movie "Godzilla" was shown in Japan (as for the exhibition of the original edition 1954). There are the moat thought to be the Imperial Palace and the single house among green tracts of land in the center.
- Bern 1965 Traffic
- I let a traffic jam dissolve within ten years. Clear is possible just to change the setting of the budget.
- Detroit 1972 Crime
- I revive the peace and order that turned worse by the increase of the unemployed person by the decline of the auto industry within ten years.
- Boston 2010 Nuclear Meltdown
- I revive it from radioactive contamination by the meltdown within five years. Because the radioactive contamination does not go out in five years, the activity in the district that is not polluted becomes Maine. It is a digression, but at first it is impossible that a nuclear power plant is built in the city area of Boston that is a culture city eminent United States. It is thought that it is an absurd joke to the last as well as virtual (of course there is not the fact that such a radioactive contamination produced in the suburbs of Boston in real 2010) Tokyo.
- Rio de Janeiro 2047 Coastal Flooding
- I revive it from the flood by the rise in sea level that global warming caused within ten years.
As for the PC-98 version, as for the loupe function (it is the same score, and the score of) game is displayed by (always same play when I look at the stadium) that the details such as the population every each division can grasp, the TOWNS version, there is an original element every models such as (a linear motor car runs on the railroad which a road trades with unpaved → pavement → air highway) which a building modernizes because the time in the game passes.

- SimCity Classic (the web application that I can play by a specific Web browser)

"SimCity" for Super Nintendo released by Nintendo has a few big change in the work of other models. As for the catch copy, "citizens (all) may not like the city that the mayor (you) likes.". I am delivered with a virtual console of Wii from December 26, 2006. The composition of BGM is Soyo Oka.
Additional element
I added it, and the next function was prepared for mainly. These copies are following works, but will be sublimated adoption.
- BGM always flows. In addition, BGM changes by the scale of the town. I can turn off BGM.
- A cherry tree blooms in spring and does 褐葉 in autumn and becomes the snow scene in winter, and the scenery of the screen is replaced by a season.
- I can build a special building contributing to the development of the town called "a present" by meeting various conditions (park, station, fountain big a police station, the strong fire department, Mario image, exhibition monument, windmill, library where a house, a bank, an amusement park, a zoo, a casino, the landfill of the mayor is strong as for the present).
- Neighboring land prices rise when I build the present (except the landfill). There is the building where the incidental income of one a year fixed amount is provided by building it.
- I can borrow 10,000 dollars from the bank. I pay back by 500 dollars a year for every 21 years, but become the game over when I cannot pay it back.
- The landfill fills up area of the sea and creates 3*3 vacant land, and the place that I filled up can build the buildings.
- The character "Dr. light" which made Will Wright who is the advisory of the city and an author advising it a model appears (I appear as assist figure skating later in game "large scuffle smash Brothers X" for Wii).
Other small changes include the following.
- In the residential area having low land prices, in the residential area that poor appearance, land prices are high in, it is appearance imaging a feeling of cleanliness based on white.
- A monster is considered to be Kupffer, and the times are changed to the scenario of Tokyo in 1961.
- Dullsvile and Hamburg are deleted by "a scenario". There are not "2096 Las Vegas, UFO appearance" (I do population than 100,000 people within ten years while I receive the air raid of the UFO destroying a constant range many times) and the area of the sea at all, but a map is central, and "free plan" (a time limit does not have the scenario, too either) with the forest where a face of Mario of game "Super Mario Brothers" was described in is added when I clear all six scenarios.
As for the television commercial at the time, a school return-like boy covered with a baseball cap is surrounded by adults of black clothes, and it is said, "you are the mayor from today". The boy who transformed himself into the seven to three look dressed in the suit appears in the work room, and the state that gives secretaries of adult various instructions in front of the diorama model of the town, and makes a town is described and changes to a game screen. Finally a thing to say the lines of the point saying "I do the homework of the school and, and I am busy", and to annoy secretaries.
Characteristic
- Soon after having loaded data, all buildings are lost power for a certain period of time. Population greatly decreases, and land prices of the appearance of the building may fall again, and crime rate in this way becomes higher because the function of the police station is reduced to half. I set progress of the time in the game after a road latest for a while and cannot but minimize influence.
- When a town becomes a large scale, I need it for a save for dozens of seconds and I exceed capacity and may not save it. This is specified in an electronic manual for a manual and a virtual console. But it is very rare not to be able to save it.
- As the scale of the town becomes big, game speed becomes slow.
I am on the way and come to a deadlock after population becomes hard to increase when it is written to the manual,, "speaking frankly, there are not 500,000 cities in the averageness" and becomes the end game when an unplanned city makes it. It is first-rate in the SIMM city series in this way, and a degree of difficulty is high.
for cell-phone version, Web browser
I am delivered to May 24, 2002 [2] as application of the cell-phones by appearance, Hudson. SimCity Classic which can be idle on a Web browser is shown. A PC version causes all it.
There was the mobile service named "the SIMM city of all" in mobile game site GREE [3]. However, it was finished in the end of November, 2012 while it was regretted [the source required]. There are "くにつく" and "I do it and arrive" to the similar game.
for OLPC
The source code of the first SIMM city was shown in GPLv3 to put it on OLPC XO-1 on January 10, 2008 [4]. With the difference [5] that the event of the plane accident is deleted in comparison with an original edition. In addition, the source code is shown by the name of Micropolis because Electronic Arts does not abandon a trademark [6].
