Games The source code to the original SimCity game has been released under the GPL, with all references to the SimCity name removed due to copyright trademark issues; it is now called Micropolis. You can download the source code, or read a bit more about it. SimCity is one of the most critically acclaimed games in history.

This game still has its charm. I'm fairly young person (22 soon) but I have quite fond memories of first Sim City. It's a great game. Even though I enjoy modern games (finished Call of Duty 4 recently) I have hard time adapting to SimCity sequels. I hope that thanks to releasing the original source code it can be made more friendly to children (I mean, made prettier) so they can enjoy it as much as we did.
