![]() ![]() Given its nonviolent, educational nature, SimCity was a natural fit when the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project solicited games for inclusion on the XO laptop. For years it was the bestselling PC-based video game, until it was eventually unseated by its own spinoff The Sims. The original SimCity was published in 1989, and spawned 18 spinoffs (and counting), plus dozens of expansions and sequels. The newly freed game is dubbed Micropolis, and it is playable in most major Linux distributions. Electronic Arts (EA) has released the source code to SimCity under the GPLv3. Think you’re smarter than the meatheads on your local city council? Now you can prove it - without running for office - courtesy of the original city simulation game.
