SimCity Societies is the most imaginative and versatile city-building game out there. It enables players to conceive and create their own cities and shape their cities’ cultures and environments. Cities can be green or polluted, contemporary or futuristic, rural or urban. Users can build industrial societies or agrarian ones, feudal societies or democratic ones. The game allows players to combine and connect elements of a city uniquely, with an ultimate building-block tool kit. This innovative, modular approach to city building makes SimCity Societies easy to play for novices, while still offering exciting new possibilities to veteran players of the SimCity™ series.

As players shape cities by choosing their values to determine their core attributes — freedom, material success, creativity, curiosity, compassion and knowledge — they witness the cities’ evolutions as their appearances and sounds adapt to reflect these values. On the micro scale, users can build special homes, workplaces, leisure-time venues and parks, while also choosing from more than 500 unique objects that can be combined in almost endless combinations. Players can also take inspiration from a variety of architectural aesthetics, from the Baroque to the modern, from country to city, from historic to futuristic. Almost everything in the game can be modified: the names of Sims, buildings, building textures, statistics and even Sim behaviors. Players can also share their creations with friends online.
