Sim City: The Card Game is an out-of-print collectible card game based on the video game SimCity by Maxis.
Publication history
It was released in 1995 by Mayfair Games. Several city expansions followed, adding location and politician cards from various cities, including Chicago, Washington, New York City, and Atlanta.[1] Several expansions were planned but never released including Hollywood, Paris, Toronto and Denver.[1] Eleven different promo packs were also released with 10 fixed cards each. Some of these promo packs included the promos that appeared as magazine inserts.[1] Another source noted over 150 promo cards, some released to conventions and gaming stores.[2]
Reception
Rick Swan reviewed Sim City: The Card Game for Dragon magazine #221 (September 1995).[3] Swan says that "While the card game doesn't scale the heights of the computer game, it comes close."[3] Swan concluded his review by saying "Sim City looks like a winner."[3] The game was based on a solitaire computer game and was noted as one of the "lowest-conflict" CCGs at that time. The aim of each player is to add to their own city and the only "attack" cards were natural disasters.[1]
