Welcome to a world you create - SimCity 4! Whether you are an experienced Mayor(市長), or are just entering the world of city planning and politics(政治), SimCity4 offers unparalleled(無比的) opportunities to create the metropolis(大都市)s of your dreams. Or, if you prefer(更喜歡/寧願), you can destroy that visionary(夢幻的) city with a fiery(燃燒的) meteor(流星) shower. The possibilities are endless(無盡的).
Are you a Mayor who yearns(渴望) to be loved by your citizenry(市民), or one whose name instills(逐漸灌輸) fear in Sims's hearts? Does your vision(夢想) include building an industrial empire(帝國), a sleepy agrarion(農耕的) community, or a cutting edge eco-friendly(生態的) metropolis? With Simcity4, your power extends from the god-like creation of mountainscapes to the adjustment of funding levels at a local elementary school. And why stop at playing a single city? SimCity4 lets you design and play interdependent(互動的) cities within a region. Create a heavily commercial(商業的) metropolis surrounded by upscale(高檔的) suburbs(近郊) and farming(農業的) communities, or a region of smaller, specialized towns that depend upon each other for shared resources. Don't get too carried away with your newfound powers, though. Just because you can plop the Great Sphinx(獅身人面像) in a downtown park or cause lightning(閃電)to strike(攻擊) a particularly despised(看不起的/鄙視的) business does not make you a successful mayor. To keep your city running smoothly, you need to make it prosperous and a desirable place for your Sims to live.
You'll know if your city is a place where Sims hope to establish family trees. They tell you. They'll let you know that the nearby clinic is having problems, or that they are very happy with the new restaurant on the nearby block. If you raise taxes, they may complain. If they live near a source of unchecked pollution, they'll get sick. If they can't get a job, they'll move out of the city altogether! In the ideal city, your Sims will work hard, die peacefully at a ripe(成熟的) old age, and pass the torch(光芒) to the next generation.
With SimCity4, you are able to import your favorite Sims from The Sims to live in your city! If you haven't created your own Sims, we've pprovided some individuals for you to follow as they give you the inside scoop(洞穴) on what's jappening in their neck(海峽) of the woods.
Sims are not your only source of information. You can spend a lot of time just touring(巡視) in wonder(奇觀). As night falls, street lights illuminate(照射) neighborhood sidewalks. Buildings in neglected(棄置的) areas of town deteriorate(使..惡化), but their condition improves if the area hits an economic upturn(使..向上). You hear the strident(刺耳的) voices of striking workers, and the happy bustle(使..忙碌) of kids going to school - and see all the minivans(小卡車) dropping those kids off(讓..下車) as the day begins! Populate(移民到..) your landscape with herds(牧群) of wild animalls and you may encounter a herd of elk(駝鹿) making their way through town. At every level, your city gives you information about how your decisions are affecting the lives of your citizens.
Be a hardworking(努力工作的) saint(教徒) of a Mayor, or inflict(給於處罰) evils of the world on your poor, unsuspecting Sims. Either way, every decision you make will have lasting implications(涵義). With experience, and Sims squawking(大聲抗議) with advice and opinions along th way, it won't be long before you are the Mayor of your dreams.
