Key Features
· U-Drive It!: Take hands on control over cars, helicopters,
airplanes, and ambulances to fight crime or respond to disasters. Turn
up the siren on the police car and chase down car-jackers, or control
the helicopter spotlight to track down the bank robbers. If you feel
the urge to go to the dark side, drive the getaway van and make a run
for the border. As you take charge and solve missions, you'll earn new
rewards buildings and vehicles, your approval rating will skyrocket
in the polls and your Sim population grow.
· Exciting New Transportation Options: Put things in motion by
creating the one-way streets of San Francisco, wide avenues of New York,
a ferry system of Seattle, and elevated train networks of Chicago.
· Over 100 New Structures: Add dozens of new structures including
rail yards, lighthouses, and ferry buildings. Place a space shuttle
launch center or TV news station with a helipad for the news copter.
· Expanded Building Sets: Lay out your metropolis based on an
all-new Modern European building set. Or choose one of three architectural
styles included in the original SimCity 4, including Chicago 1890's,
New York 1940's, or Houston 1990's.
· Make Your Mark: Create signposts in key areas to designate
neighborhoods, districts, and points of interest. Place labels on streets,
roads, mountains, and bodies of water to personalize your city, or mark
areas for future expansion.
· New Disasters: Looking for the big disaster? Start the UFO
invasion and watch as Sims are abducted and buildings are destroyed.
Attempt to take control of your own UFO and create a little havoc yourself.
See massive wrecks at railroad crossings? Sit back and watch chaos rule,
or place a wide avenue to avert future disasters.
· New Maps and Tools: Track the ebb and flow of traffic, plan
your growth, or map out how your Sims whisk from one region to another.
