The most versatile city-building game. Combine and connect elements of your city like never before with the ultimate building block tool kit. This innovative, modular approach to city-building makes SimCity Societies accessible to players of all levels, while still providing tremendous new possibilities to veteran players of the SimCity series. Shape your city through its values and priorities. More than just a city-building simulator, SimCity Societies puts you in the new role of social engineer. Mix and match six "social energies"--productivity, prosperity, creativity, spirituality, authority, and knowledge--to determine the core attributes that will be reflected in the infrastructure of your city as well as in its people. After you plant these seeds you'll witness the evolution of your city as everything from its physical appearance to the sounds heard on its streets adapt to reflect these values. Build unique homes, workplaces, leisure-time venues, and parks. Choose from more than 500 unique objects which can be combined and connected in almost limitless combinations. Take inspiration from a variety of architectural styles, ranging from the realistic to the fanciful, rural to urban, industrial to futuristic. And with only a fraction of the available buildings and associated object types unlocked at the game's beginning the possible combinations will only grow as you delve deeper into the game and advance your society. Share your creations with your friends online. The most customizable SimCity ever created, SimCity Societies not only allows you to modify almost everything in the game, from the buildings, decorations, citizens and rule sets, it also allows you share these with friends online.

I had fun, but regret buying Sim City Societies at full price:
I wish I would have waited until now to buy Sim City Societies. $10 would be a better price for the amount of fun it offers. I bought it at the full retail price a year ago, had a good time with it for a couple of days but I haven't really played it since. I liked the aspects of the different types of cities but once I accomplished it I became bored. Perhaps I would have had enjoyed it longer if more of the aspects of Sim City had been left in. I'd been frustrated by some of the difficulties I'd encountered... more info
Not for me, looks expansive though:
I'm not a sim fan, but I thought I would give this a try. FYI if it detects CD emulation software it won't run (yeah, just detecting it, not even running the game from emulation). If your looking for creative games with no point, this maybe for you.
Fun times:
It's a good little game and has lots of replay value. It arrived in good shape, worked great, and I was creating cities in no time at all. It gets a little repetitive after a while, and I lost interest pretty quickly.
Watered down and pointless:
This is a very disappointing game - it is extremely watered down compared to the previous games in the franchise and becomes pointless after a few hours.
