'''SimCity''' is a real-time strategy and simulation city-building computer game. It is game developer [[Maxis]]' flagship product. There are four versions: the original SimCity ([[1989]], later re-released as SimCity Classic), [[SimCity 2000]] ([[1993]]), [[SimCity 3000]] ([[1999]]) and [[SimCity 4]] ([[2003]]). All of the games were re-released with various add-ons including extra scenarios. In addition, SimCity Classic is available for PalmOS and on the SimCity.com website as Classic Live. SimCity 2000 is also available for handheld organizers running Microsoft's Windows PocketPC, as well as the [[Game Boy Advance]] and [[PlayStation]].

Versions of SimCity for the BBC Micro, Acorn Electron, and Acorn Archimedes computers were published by Superior Software.

SimCity is what many players consider a highly addictive simulation game and is even used in some Urban Planning classes. The game can be played forever as there is no end. However, many fans of the series agree that the game is very replayable.
