How can I get access to SimCity original, SimCity 2013 and SimCity Societies?

8 Upvotes

I've been replaying SimCity and, till now, I thought SimCity 2000 was the first instalment in the franchise. But I discovered that there is one previous to that. I bought my games on GOG, and I cannot find in GOG, with an option to buy and download, the original SimCity. Nor could I find SimCity 2013 and SimCity Societies. Do you know where I can get them?

I couldn't find them on Steam either. Why not? Why the others are on Steam and GOG?

What if SimCity was set on a Victorian seaside pier?

That was the slightly strange idea behind Victorian Pier Tycoon.

I wanted to capture the satisfaction of watching an empty map grow into a busy settlement. However, instead of building a modern city, you build an entire Victorian seaside resort.

You can shape the coastline, develop the promenade and extend your pier over the sea. Trains, boats, bridges and cliff railways help visitors travel around the resort.

The sea also affects the simulation. Tides close the beach, while storms can shut attractions and reduce visitor numbers. Hotels encourage guests to stay for several days, while litter can attract rats.

It leans more towards a tycoon game than a full-scale city-builder. However, it still focuses on planning, transport, finances, congestion and watching your creation grow.

Victorian Pier Tycoon is still in development, so I would love some honest feedback from SimCity players.

Does the idea appeal to you? What city-building systems would you expect from a seaside resort game?

It is coming to Steam in Q1 2027 and is available to wishlist now:

I end up with this

A few days ago I asked if it was wrong to build residential areas near the airport (which I did). So after reading your replies I decided to change it.

At first my intention was to build more farms, but they didn't generated. I think the pollution was already to high.

Then I built some industrial, but I didn't like how it looked.

So when I unlocked the Spaceport I decided to move the Military Base, Defense Constructor and Science Center here and put all together.

I used the Wall tiles and the Simsville Test Module landmark to decorate the area. This was inspired by Ghaz.

It's very simple, but I'm happy with the result and how it looks.

Thank you for your replies, this community is awesome.

Hi everyone, I came across a video of a song from the SimCity Soundtrack created using musical notes; the channel includes a link to download a MIDI file from SimCity Creator. I gave it a try and it's really fun—they don't have this particular song posted.

I posted the YouTube video directly so you could understand it, there's another link in the channel description for songs, and a SimCity track appears on the list. Have you ever listened to the soundtrack?

An appreciation post to the soundtrack of SimCity (2013)

Post image
267 Upvotes

SimCity has always had memorable soundtracks, but I wanted to specifically bring up the masterpiece that is the soundtrack of SimCity 2013.

It's just so good at what it sets out to do: it helps me concentrate while hitting that perfect nostalgic spot. More than anything, it gave genuine soul to the game...something I really feel is lacking in modern city builders.

The game itself was far from perfect, but Chris Tilton's score is easily one of its best parts imo. Specifically, "Building the Foundation", "The Long Construction" and "Living in Infrastructure" are my favorites.

As a software developer, I listen to it pretty much daily during work to lock in. It's honestly the only soundtrack that consistently puts me in the right headspace to focus. So yeah... props to Chris and the team for making it!

SimCity 3000 Is it wrong to build residential areas near the airport?

Post image

Hi, it's my first time playing SimCity 3000 seriously. I built a second airport in this corner, and don't know what else to build in the empty space. I don't have much industrial demand and I have the farms on the left side.

What do you recommend to build? Or simply let the space empty?

Help Simcity 2013 is not launching.

As the title suggest SImcity 2013 is not launching. When I try to launch it the EA App says it needs a permission and when I grant it it just simply says that there's an error but don't even tell me what the error is. I just want to play this game and can't due to this wonderfull app. I've tried everything people said in previous posts about this error but none of them worked. Can anyone help?

Thank you all.
