Awkward, but entertaining!

I always loved the SimCity games for PC. Although, I never could keep any money and would get frustrated and quit a few hours into playing the city if not sooner. With SimCity DS I actually played for hours on end before I started to lose any money.

When I finally understood the controls, and could watch both screens, I was even more amused. There are a few things that I didn't like about the game though.

*There are a few minigames that I've found so far. They're less-than-intriguing.
*The advisor is the most annoying creation on earth.
*You get gifts quickly the first little bit of the game, but when you actually have to start researching, it all stops.

All in all, it's a very immersing game to pass time with, after a while though I'm sure I'll get bored with it just like all the other SimCity games I've played.
