SimCity, originally developed by veteran designer Will Wright (he calls his games software toys) and published by Brøderbund, is the first title of the long-lasting game series and the introduction of „Sim“ titles in general. Throughout the years, many versions were ported or re-developed for various 8 and 16 bit computers and consoles. While the home computer versions created a whole new genre, the SNES version of the game proofed that city-building strategie games can also be played with great benefits on consoles.
Nowadays, SimCity is a cult classic and considered as one of the greatest games of all times.

„When computers came along, I started learning programming and realizing the computer was this great tool for making things, making models, dynamic models, and behaviors, not just static models. When I started doing games I really wanted to carry that to the next step, to the player, so that you give the player a tool so that they can create things.“
