SimCity for the mass-market fails to deliver in this bug-ridden, system lagging disaster of a game. Waste of your money!
I was curious to check out SimCity Societies when it was announced. When the game came out I eagerly went out to get it. To my great disappointment, the game is so buggy that its virtually unplayable. I could manage about 15 minutes of gameplay without a crash. Then all my hard work would be whipped out like clock work. Not fun atll. The first patch that was released made it even worse. Now the game would crash within about 2 minutes. Patch 2 didn't do much to solve the problems. And the game is still unplayable.
But being a SimCity fan, I've kept trying to play. The few minutes of gameplay I do get in are, well, easy. The challenge is gone. Its very easy to earn the 10 or so different trophies. The only challenge is doing it before the game crashes. I'll be returning this and asking for my money back. Its honestly not worth your time nor money. Avoid like the plague!
