Finally SimCity for the iPhone

Finally SimCity for the iPhone


header iphone simcity Finally, Electronic Arts has released a version of its famous SimCity game for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Nicely described by a site as �the grandfather of them all�, SimCity now joins other EA-released games such as Spore, Scrabble, Monopoly and Tetris. The game is now available for $9.99 through the App Store.


SimCity is an open-ended city-building computer and console video game series, created by developer Will Wright. It is published by Maxis (now a division of Electronic Arts) and originally released for the Mac and Amiga in 1989.



And, if you�re new to the SimCity universe, prepare yourself for one of the most engaging, addicting games you�ve ever played. Take charge and create entire cities from the ground up - the sky�s the limit!



The game features including:



  • Touch, tap, drag and flick to create a thriving metropolis!
  • Zoom in and out of your vibrant cityscapes by pinching.
  • Eight tool categories give you the ability to plan, zone, build, bulldoze, and manage your city.
  • Tutorial, starter cities and 3 difficulty modes for fun and challenging gameplay.
  • Take charge of the city budget and decide where best to spend taxpayers� hard-earned Simoleons.
  • Public works management including Water, Power, Garbage and Recycling.
  • Public and private transportation with roads and rail.
  • Test your city infrastructure with disasters - UFOs, Fires, Tornados, Earthquakes and Toxic Clouds.


Yeah, with the recent announcements from the big game companies, seems gaming on the iPhone is going mainstream now � it�s hard to say that this wonderful device isn�t a promising gaming platform.

We�re really seeing iPhone games mature and evolve. Games are getting more polished but they�re also taking better advantage of the iPhone hardware.

But its relatively fast processor and 3D-capable GPU�John Carmack compared the iPhone�s specs to serious consoles like the PS2 and Xbox�gives the iPhone far more gaming mettle than other mobile handsets.



Since the iPhone gaming was backed-up by passionate developers and very strong business model, I�ve become more convinced that in the near future, iPhone gaming would be ubiquitous device. (Of course, it�s something that already anticipated by other smartphone companies).


Btw, have you played SimCity on your iPhone? Let us know what you think here.
