 Excellent game November 7, 2008

Good tutorial!
Better than I expected! Reminds me of Simcity 3 and Simcity 4 Deluxe Edition!
I recommend this for Simcity fans! Much better than the Simcity Societies!
Fun, open-ended game! September 30, 2008

I'm enjoying this game so far, because of its open-endedness. You can create unique cities, and lay them out in an almost infinite way.
The reviewer who slammed the controls clearly failed to actually spend time LEARNING them; I mean, do you want every game to spoon-feed you oversimplification? Please.
Anyway, if you enjoy creative and strategic games, with longevity, I recommend this game. Go through the tutorials and you should have no problems designing, maintaining (and destroying!) your cities...
A lot of fun September 30, 2008

This game is a little hard to learn at the beginning but after you learn all the controls it is so much fun! It took me probably about 2 - 3 hours over about 5 days just playing here and there to master the controls. It will be easier for anyone who has played a lot of the Sim games but it had been a few years for me.
The thing that really makes the game for me is the area assistants who will build for you while you can focus on other things and on details of the budget. They are an invaluable resource that really make the game more fun.
This is a very fun game once you get into it!.
Just like on the computer September 29, 2008

I haven't played Sim City in years, but this version on the Wii is not that different. The menus are the same. Zooming in and out on the large tv makes for some interesting scenes. The flights over the city are kind of lame. It also takes a while to get use to using the wii remote to scroll through the city - less control than with a mouse. Still hours of fun watching your city grow and then destroying it.
 A big let down! September 27, 2008

We were so excited about this game. The controls are difficult to figure out. Lack of instructions, even with the tutorial. It is also hard to complete the missions. Save your money and download the VC SNES Sim City, or wait for MySims Kingdom.
