## What is SimpleCities?

Build a city. Keep it running.

SimpleCities brings classic city simulation to iPhone with a native, touch-first interface. Start with open land, build roads and power, zone new neighborhoods, balance the budget, and watch your city grow one decision at a time.

Every city develops differently. Residents need homes, businesses need customers, industry needs workers, and everything depends on power and transportation. As the population grows, you will face traffic, pollution, crime, fires, blackouts, and increasing demand for public services.

Features:

• Build residential, commercial, and industrial districts
• Draw roads, rails, and power lines directly with your finger
• Manage taxes and funding for roads, police, and fire protection
• Track traffic, pollution, crime, land value, growth, and city services
• Respond to fires, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, monsters, and other disasters
• Play eight classic city emergency scenarios
• Inspect your city with detailed data maps and reports
• Pause or adjust the simulation speed at any time
• Save multiple versions of your city and restore earlier progress
• Import and export compatible classic city files
• Choose from several visual themes, including the original classic style
• Learn the game with a complete Field Guide for new mayors

SimpleCities is easy to start and difficult to master. A healthy city needs more than roads and buildings. It needs planning, patience, and a mayor who can survive the annual budget.
