SimCity: The next generation

SimCity Societies will hit PCs in November this year and revolutionize the city-building series in the process. With its totally overhauled gameplay, Societies will enable you to create your own unique, dynamic and interactive SimCity s🌺ociety from a dystopian nightmare to🔴 a utopian dream.

Buildings can now be rearranged and combined with other structures, avoiding the cloned look of previous SimCity crea𒉰tions. There's a stagg꧋ering 350 types of building, with huge variety, and your choice of structure can directly affect your city's society.

"Sometimes I build an aggressive🃏 police state where stragglers are dragged off to reconditiꦦoning centers and emerge ready for work," Rod Humble, studio head of EA's Sims Division, relishes in telling us. "Other times, I build a green community in the tropics, where the citizens grow their own food."

As you combine buildings, you🔥 produce or consume a resource called "social energies." Experiment with these energies -including industry, wealth, obedience or creativity - and you can guide or coerce the path of 🐷your city's society.

Your choices will be visually obvious as ♒you progress - slap down ferris wheels, gﷺingerbread houses, or chocolate factories to create fun-filled worlds. Build your own haunted village, complete with spooky houses, or pursue future technologies and forge huge metropolises.

The behavior of your citizens can be influenced, too - for instance, play around with the consequences of rebellion, or investigate what you can achieve with a compliant, unquestioning workforce.SimCity Societies is ambitious, but the resultswill be 🦹limited only by your imag🅺ination.
