I was four years old when the first SimCity was released on the 2nd of February, 1989.
I downloaded it immediately, and felt 14 years old all over again.
I loved being thrown straight into a city without lengthy forms or processes.
In a few minutes I was building my first neighborhood and beginning to welcome my first residents.
I was familiar with the original game but still benefited from having a virtual human walk me through it.
This made it easier to see where I was allowed to build.
It wasnt long before I received an invite to visit someone elses city.
This was helpful for two reasons.
First, I was able to have a good nose around and see how it had been built.
Through these advanced features, its possible to plot strategies with Club mates and declare war on other cities.
This is where it gets a little crazy, but in a good way.
Despite SimCity BuildIt being 100% free to use, there are plenty of in-app purchases.
Some are as expensive as $99.99, although the majority of bolt-ons are much more reasonable.
To get the most out of the game, you definitely should be prepared to part with some cash.
An alternative way to make purchases is to watch video ads.
Unfortunately, you’ve got the option to only watch one ad per day.
Despite this money-grab ploy, I thoroughly enjoyed my SimCity BuildIt experience.
you could download the SimCity BuildIt app oniOSorAndroid.
