My 10-year-old son prefers this wii game to five others he got for X-mas January 4, 2009 I'm surprised and delighted actually to see my son creating cities and taking such thought and care for them (of course he also built cities just to destroy them in horrific ways usually involving metors and monsters). He's new to the Wii this Christmas and while he has and likes Mario Brawl, Mario Galaxy, Raving Rabbids 1 and 2, and Wii Sports he plays with this far longer and more often, at least for now. This game can be a simple create and destroy type or a highly involved creative and yet curiously relaxing learning experience disguised as fun. It's certainly for adults too as I can attest.
Lots of fun December 29, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
My wife and I bought a Wii for our son for Christmas 2007. I have been looking for a few games that adults could enjoy, so I thought I would give this a try. br /br /I have played the original SimCity and SimCity 2000 in the past, so I did have an idea of what to expect. This game follows in the tradition of those older games with a few adjustments and additional options. So far I have had a lot of fun with it.
A $5 Game for $46 December 29, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Having played Sim* since the 80s, this was - to my tremendous surprise - a horrible experience. The graphics are from circa 1999, the UI control via the Wiimote is horribly twitchy, the interface is "dumb" when trying to connect bits of roads or power lines. Its not fun to play. I imagine they took the circa 2000 SimCity and handed it over to some interns. Its the first Wii game I've actually regretted buying. I won't be going back to the Sims franchise for a long time after this experience.br /br /
Wii controls are terrible. December 27, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Compared to the SimCity PC games, the Wii controls very difficult to use. I'll go back playing my Simcity 4 PC game.
Excellent game November 7, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Good tutorial!br /br /Better than I expected! Reminds me of Simcity 3 and Simcity 4 Deluxe Edition!br /br /I recommend this for Simcity fans! Much better than the Simcity Societies!
