a great sim
at the start of the game is difficult because you start with almost nothing and start loosing money, but when you see your money growing and you city getting larger and larger and richer and more beautifull it's really cool...
i really like the game you should buy it or download it... the time spent playing i put 100h because you can always keep playing your city until the end that depends on the person... (i haven't played that much)...
the game has disasters (tornados, fire etc.) so it's really cool when you have a city very big you can put a tornado so it sees cool... in the game you have to control a lot of things (crime, disasters, water, energy, transport and a lot more things)
