Simcity Social was officially revealed at this year’s E3 with just a mere press release and game trailer. In fact, there were no playable demos available at any of the booths. So today we get a sneak peek look into some of the general features of Simcity Social. With a collaboration between Maxis and Playfish China Studios, Simcity Social plans to add new depth to the city building franchise on Facebook.
Your city will grow and visually change based on your actions and decisions. You may see buildings evolve into skyscraper depending on the way you expand your city. You’re not just building a city, you’re also a mayor, and events will occur requiring your input.
Simcity Social includes zoning featured in just about every Simcity game. Players can zone residential lots that will turn into homes, that may develop into condos as the city expands. You could even “specialize” creating an industrial city that produces tons of materials
The “social” aspects include positive things like sending gifts, or in one such negative example, you can send a flock of seagulls to poop on your friend’s city.
