Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

SimCity Classic: The original city simulator. A true classic in computer entertainment, SimCity dares you to design and build the city of your dreams. SimCity took the computer world by storm (well, by earthquake anyway), stretched the bounds of entertainment software, and tore down the wall between fun and learning. With its simple interface and the ability to run on almost any computer, SimCity Classic is the best introduction to both simulation games and city planning on this or any other planet.

SimTower: The vertical empire. Start by building a small office complex: a lobby, a few offices, and a café. Expand by adding more floors, more offices, and elevators. Then diversify to hotel rooms, shops, theaters, restaurants, condos, and more as you build your way to the top. Success in SimTower requires design talent, management skills, business acumen, and the ability to keep your customers happy. Be on the lookout for fires, insect infestations, terrorists, and--you'll find out soon enough.

Streets of SimCity: It's your city to cruise through or bruise through. Check out one of over 50 built-in cities, or take on opponents in an urban free-for-all while skidding, bootlegging, and blasting away. Speed through a sprawling metropolis or tackle one of Streets's rim-rattling missions. On the Streets of SimCity, you set the road rules. Combat up to seven other players in network mode over LAN, Internet, or modem.

SimCopter: Fly missions in the metropolis. Attention SimCopter pilot: you're cleared for a rooftop landing, where the local temperature is a balmy 678. That's because there's a five-alarm fire in progress, not to mention rampant riots and SimCitizens running for their SimLives. So soar through 30 built-in cities in hyper-realistic 3-D and perform death-defying missions. Complete your heroics and receive your rewards: a snazzier copter, a tougher mission, and more near-death experiences.

SimIsle: Missions in the rain forest. OK, so you're the king of the forest--make that rain forest. Now what are you going to do? You'd better decide fast because there are miners, poachers, petrochemical companies, endangered species, tourists, polluters, ecologists, natural disasters, and even UFOs, all vying for your attention--and for your resources. With teams of agents at your command, you'll embark on missions to determine the fate of a series of island rain forests.

SimSafari: Create and explore your own African safari park and camp. SimSafari brings Africa to you! Imagine yourself in rugged bush country, peering through binoculars at vast herds of elephants, zebras, and lions. Choose from exotic plants and wildlife to create your own safari park. Team with a neighboring village and build a flourishing safari camp.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good and the bad..., April 24, 2000
By 
Ryan Steele (New Orleans, LA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SimMania Pack (CD-ROM)
In this collection, Maxis has bundled together some of their least popular titles. All of them are classics, however! When SimCopter was first released, it sold for thirty dollars in stores, and it's still a pretty good game--especially if you have SimCity. That one game alone makes this bundle a great purchase! Don't forget about Streets of SimCity--it's a similar game to SimCopter, except you're driving cars through your Cities, not flying a 'copter. I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoys the Sim games, or who's just starting out with simulation games.

4.0 out of 5 stars SimMania mostly COOL!, November 20, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: SimMania Pack (CD-ROM)
I just bought SimMania yesterday. I'm a 13 year old girl, and for the most part, I really enjoyed SimMania! Here's how I rated each game: SimCityClassic- This version of SimCity is old and the graphics are awful! If you just want SimCity, I reccomend that you get SimCity 3000.Also, it was a little confusing. SimTower-I love this game! It is fun, challenging, and addictive! You can build a tower as wide and tall as you want! The possibilities are practically endless! SimIsle- I tried playing this a couple of times and it is confusing! Maybe I'll figure it out sooner! SimSafari- This game is terrific! It is the simplest game on this pack, but it doesn't get boring! You have to make a flourishing safari, and it's really fun. TheStreetsofSimCity- This is your average car driving, blow up everything you can game. My 7year old brother loves it, but there really is no object to the game! SimCopter- In this semi-confusing game, you have to rescue people from every day crisises. You waste most of your time trying to find the people, and then you get scolded for not finding them on time! All in all, the SimMania Pack is pretty interesting and fun! But if you get frustrated easily then you might not enjoy the game as much as I did!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good simulation games, but not great, January 1, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: SimMania Pack (CD-ROM)
First of all, I would just like to write that four of the six games in this boxed set are playable on a Macintosh: SimCity Classic, SimTower, SimIsle, and SimSafari. The other two can only be played on a PC.

SimCity Classic is the godfather of all simulation games. It was originally released in the 1980's and Will Wright, the genius behind the game, was launched into simulation game stardom. This game is very similar to SimCity 2000 and SimCity 3000.

SimTower is the most unique of the games (in my opinion). Your mission is to build a successful skyscraper, thwart terrorists, and make your tower a major attraction.

SimIsle is a game about an island paradise in danger. Tourists, poachers, and corporate raiders are trying to get onto the island and it is your job to control them all while saving a rare species.

SimSafari is similar to SimIsle in that you run a tourist business in Africa, but that's about it. Manage guides, poachers, tourists, and of course, the animals, to create a safe environment that turns a profit.

I cannot review SimCopter or Streets of SimCity as I said that they do not work on a Macintosh.
