Society or city building game

[monkey333]

Inspired by the simcity exp. thread.

Looking for suggestions on society building games such as sim city and the like.

Played sim city 3, but haven't messed with any others.

THX!

i just asked for this just the other day. check out my thread here. I picked up The Settlers: Rise of an Empire and I really like it. Its not as involved and deep as something like Sim City but the graphics are pretty nice and the gameplay is pretty fun to me. there's a little combat too. It's not without its problems though, mainly just gameplay type things that I think they could have done better on.


Sim City 4 is pretty cool.

Only one I liked was Simcity 3000. I wanted to enjoy Simcity 4, but it was just impossible to start up a good flow of money, and the game was at least 3x the difficulty of simcity 3000. I would love to have Simcity 3000 with the updated graphics engine.
