The game provides you with 13 challenging scenarios to play in or you can simply hop into its sandbox mode and enjoy building a city whichever way you like. There are also "fun" (for you) disasters that you can unleash onto your poor Sims, obliberating homes and high-rise buildings alike. With more buildings (landmarks specifically) than ever, SimCity 3000 is a great step-up from the previous and is a testament to the old-school version of SimCity... and well, just in case you have an insatiable craving to play an older version of the SimCity, SimCity 3000 is a game you can play.Sins of a Solar Empire
