SimCity in App Store, $9.99


Will Wright’s beloved city simulation franchise makes its long-awaited iPhone and iPod Touch debut with this week’s App Store release of SimCity ($9.99). Resembling the 1998 PC release of SimCity 3000 in looks and function, the new iPhone adaptation of SimCity also boasts its own set of exclusive features and control options.

Initial reports and previews indicate that the iPhone SimCity is fully-featured, with all the depth and complexity of its PC predecessors. City builders can expect all the zoning, building, and lawmaking action typical of a SimCity session…after which they have the option to destroy it all by unleashing tornadoes, earthquakes, and an army of UFOs on their too-trusting citizens.

Iphone and iPod Touch-exclusive features include an extended tutorial for first-time players, along with touch functionality for zooming, planning, and construction.
