Video Game Reviews of SimCity Societies

Customer Review: Very good gameplay, but nonetheless very patchy and flawed
Summary: 1 Stars

The gameplay itself was very good, but this game is so full of glitches and bugs it's not funny. I have a relatively new computer with 2GB of RAM, a 256 MB Video Card and a 2 GHz processor, and the game still freezes up at random and is very slow.
I actually very much liked the changes made from previous versions. It was different but I found it gave me much more control over my city than previous versions, and a far greater ability to scape my city to my liking.
Unfortunately, the gameplay itself is outweighed by the many glitches it has. I had incredible trouble installing it, and when I began playing the game it froze after 15 minutes, requiring me to eject the disc and reboot my Computer.
Overall, I would say this game is not worth the money unless you are incredibly patient and cool-headed. It's a real pity this game was so well designed and thought out, but so full of bugs and flaws at the same time.

The most versatile city-building game.
Combine and connect elements of your city like never before with the ultimate building block tool kit. This innovative, modular approach to city-building makes SimCity Societies accessible to players of all levels, while still providing tremendous new possibilities to veteran players of the SimCityT series.

Shape your city through its values and priorities.
More than just a city-building simulator, SimCity Societies puts you in the new role of social engineer. Mix and match six "social energies"-productivity, prosperity, creativity, spirituality, authority, and knowledge-to determine the core attributes that will be reflected in the infrastructure of your city as well as in its people. After you plant these seeds you'll witness the evolution of your city as everything from its physical appearance to the sounds heard on its streets adapt to reflect these values.

Build unique homes, workplaces, leisure-time venues, and parks.
Choose from more than 500 unique objects which can be combined and connected in almost limitless combinations. Take inspiration from a variety of architectural styles, ranging from the realistic to the fanciful, rural to urban, industrial to futuristic. And with only a fraction of the available buildings and associated object types unlocked at the game's beginning the possible combinations will only grow as you delve deeper into the game and advance your society.

Share your creations with your friends online.
The most customizable SimCityT ever created, SimCity Societies not only allows you to modify almost everything in the game, from the buildings, decorations, citizens and rule sets, it also allows you share these with friends online.
