SimCity Enhanced CD-ROM, also known as SimCity Enhanced Cinematic Multimedia, is a remake of SimCity created by Maxis and released by Maxis and Interplay in 1993 for PC CD-ROM and Macintosh.
The game is not changed compared to the original (if we exclude the VGA graphics instead of EGA). Still, there are several cutscenes with movies recorded with real Hollywood actors, plus voices that will give you feedback and suggestions.
Reviews were not highly positive: many complained because the videos or audio were distracting. Anyway, it's a fun remake of a popular game.
Nickelodeon 3D Movie Maker is a Nickelodeon-themed version of 3D Movie Maker. This spin-off includes 12 characters and 11 unique scenes from Rocko's Modern Life, The Ren & Stimpy Show and Aaahh!!!

An unofficial expansion pack was later created, allowing Nickelodeon actors, props, scenes, music and sounds to be used in the original 3D Movie Maker
Nickelodeon 3D Movie Maker is an addon for 3D Movie Maker, you will need the original game to play.
3D Movie Maker (commonly shortened to 3DMM) is a children's computer program developed by Microsoft Home's Microsoft Kids subsidiary in 1995. Using the program, users can make simple films by placing 3D characters and props into pre-rendered environments/backgrounds, as well as adding actions, sound effects, music, text, speech and special effects. Movies are then saved in the .3mm file format.
The biggest fan-community of 3D Movie Maker, 3Dmm Studio, still works, even though it wasn't updated since 2006. Visit it to find useful tools and archive of user-created movies. Or you can use our forums and its dedicated 3DMM Studio thread.
In May 2022, Microsoft published original source code of the program, which can be obtained on GitHub or Archive.org
3D Movie Maker has an addon available: Nickelodeon 3D Movie Maker, don't miss it!
Direct from the TV series, ER places you in the life of an intern in the emergency room. Start out with few skills and work your way up as you treat patients with 6 categories of injuries - general surgery, neurology, broken bones, cardiac, pediatrics, and toxicology.
Not only do you need to treat the patients, but you need to get along with the staff as well. If you're near a friendly staff member, your skills increase. However, if you're near a staff member who doesn't like you, or even hates you, your skills will decrease. There are a number of ways to improve your relationships including talking about various things with the staff and giving gifts. You can also receive gifts from patients who you treat.
Possibly the dryest Sim- game Maxis ever made, SimHealth puts you in control of the U.S.health care system-- evidently Maxis felt that the heated debates during the 1996 presidential election would induce many fans to try their hands at the subject 😉
Despite its commercial failure, SimHealth is a solid simulation that really gives different (if perhaps not "realistic") results of your decision. Want to cut insurance or increase family medicine practice? Here's your chance-- with the end goal of getting re-elected again when the time comes.
Maxis takes their Sim-building line vertical with SimTower, an original concept from Japan (where vertical living is much more commonplace than in many parts of the world).
Your goal is to build a skyscraper that is both tall, aethestically pleasing, popular, and, most importantly, economically profitable. To be successful, your building cannot just be levels upon levels of officespace, or just an apartment sky-rise, but a multi-functional haven for humanity featuring everything from penthouses to theatres, restaurants to shopping malls. The centerpiece of your tower design is your elevators and proper managment is the key.
You can watch your Sims enter and leave your grand tower, getting impatient waiting for elevators, or having a hectic work day at the office. You can even train in on one or two, to server as a metering stick for their compatriots, or just to peek into the average workday of the little people living in your building. Or watch the security and resuce crews race as distasters like bomb threats and fires rampage through your well-crafted skyscraper.
A complex game in which you can create your own ecosystems, animals or vegetables, then watch them eat, evolve, mate, or die.
Feel free to create funky animals! How about a giant snail that would have to eat several trees each day to survive - or a small kangaroo that would lay eggs and eat only bugs? You can even edit their DNA code, and make your animals mutate.
Maxis has worked to build a franchise on its thoughtful and addictive management simulations, and has earned a respectable reputation for its efforts. Streets of Simcity, an arcade driving game, is the product of an improved version of the Simcopter 3D engine, but while Simcopter is a helicopter simulation, Streets takes on the arcade racing genre with tires smoking and guns blazing. However, in a market saturated with high quality driving games, the advertised feature that gamers will find most enticing is the option to load up and drive in any Simcity 2000 city.
SimAnt was released by Maxis and is part of the Sim series. In the nineties, several Sim like games were created, Sim Ant is a ant colony simulator.
You have to manage your ants by digging tunnels, find food, protect the queen, expand your territory, fight against many enemies, including the evil red ants ! The conquest of the whole garden and the house will make you victorious.
The game was a hit with more than 100,000 copies sold and was released on many platform. SimAnt was included in the SimClassic pack.
This was one of the few games that the early pirate groups actively encouraged the "if you like it, buy it!" dogma. When it came out, it actually outsold SimCity and the various cosmetic packs, and there was almost no negativity seen in the reviews published in the plethora of trade rags at the time. Even PC Week gave it an excellent review, and those choads back then were notorious for hating anything that wasn't Lotus 1-2-3.
Singles 2 is a Life Simulation Game, similar to The Sims.
You play as Josh, a young musician who just moved to a new city. He moves in with Kim, a crazy girl - and is very surprised when he finds out that his other flatmate is Anna, is ex! Josh bitterly disappointed Anna in the past and now he wants to win her back. Anna, however, is not so happy to see Josh again...
In the Story Mode you can only control Josh; it is also possible to play the story from the perspective of Anna. You can buy lots of new furniture and items for your flat, you must improve various character skills such as flirting, cooking and repairing and you can interact with other Singles. Interaction can mean anything from smalltalk to hot sex.
There is also a Free Play Mode where you can control three Singles of your choice. Singles 2 has a strong focus on love and erotic. It also includes a boy-boy and girl-girl mode.
Singles: Flirt Up Your Life is a relationship simulator. Think "The Sims" on a much smaller scale but with a more detailed character interaction.
The game starts of by giving you 2 couples who live in a flat. Your task is to explore their relationship while controlling their tasks like cooking, watching TV and a whole lot more. The couples will fight with each like in real life too. Then there are moments where the couples will get intimate with each other. This where the fun starts as players are given a few levels of eroticism to play with. Starting from mild kissing up to making love or having a shower together.
The Movies is three games in one, or more accurately, two games and an editing program. It's a tycoon-style strategy game that puts you in charge of a movie studio, and a Sims-style people simulator that forces you to satisfy the needs and egos of your stars to keep them sober and producing quality films. The moviemaker is pretty much its own thing, only required to make the highest-rated movies but it has little effect on either of the other two parts of the game.
The Movies is purely a sandbox game. There's little structure, or any missions or scenarios. You can set some starting parameters, year, amount of cash, whether you want a pre-built studio or not so you can just focus on making movies but you're always trying to maintain your studio and make money.
Unsurprisingly, you make money producing movies. Though the structure of constructing a script, rehearsing, assigning directors and actors, and sending them off to shoot the film is similar to a little-known gem called Hollywood Mogul, Lionhead deserves a lot of credit for developing a unique interface. You spend a lot of time dragging people (with a funny thwack sound) to and from locations to drop them on objects to perform actions. Once writers create a script, you drag it to production. It's harder to describe than it is to actually utilize; this is one simple, polished, sophisticated, and terrific interface.
SimCity 3000 is an economic game released in 1999 by Electronic Arts, Inc. The game was released for PC (Windows) and Macintosh.
In the game, you play the mayor. Our task is to manage the city. We start the game on an empty area where we will develop our city. In selected sectors, you can create zones for residential, commercial and industrial purposes. In addition to the division into zones, you can build roads, parks, trains, water pipes, power plants and many more.
Your task is to create a thriving city. If you fail - you will be deprived of office.
There are many tycoon series, but never thought there would be one to build your own casino.
You start with a bunch of money and an empty floor. For you the goal is to get the casino filled with people playing games and lose their money to you.
Should work fine on Windows 10.
EF2000 is a simulator of the Eurofighter 2000 fighter aircraft. The game is set in a fictitious war conflict, when Russia is about to invade Europe and for this purpose creates strongholds in northern Europe (for easier progress of its invading troops). The individual battles will take place in the detailed modeled environments of the Baltics, Finland, Sweden, Norway and parts of Russia.
The game contains 3 game modes: Quick Combat, Simulator and Training. Quick Combat and Simulator are the two main modes in which air battles with machines take place according to real models (F-15 Eagle, F-16 Fighting Falcon, Mig-29, Mig-21) or various operational tasks are performed (destruction of ground targets ). Training mode includes aircraft exercises and controls (takeoffs, landings or refueling in flight).
At the time, this game made a real revolution. There were no superheroes, ancient secrets and half-naked beauties with submachine guns, you didn't wear commando's camouflage pants and you didn't hold a cold steel pistol in your hand. You have lived in an ordinary life in a virtual world. Tie a Hermes tie around your neck, get a Samsonite briefcase and go to work. Yes, what else did you expect? You have to make money to get your wife happy, and it's high time to buy a big TV. Neighbours are coming to visit, you have to get ready. Welcome to life.
Sims are like humans. Only tiny. Each of them has an impressive number of needs - from the most primitive to the highly spiritual - satisfy them, otherwise you will get a "completely dissatisfied person". Don't forget that you are not alone here - it would be nice to take care of your loved ones as well. The sims around you (I almost wrote "people") will run to you to meet, communicate, and then, maybe, they'll come to the wedding (no, what you think they'll show won't show what a pity). Of course, everything depends on you - you can be a smelly neighbor with a dirty driveway and dirty shoes, no one will even look at you. But if you become a charming handsome man, you will immediately make a fuss and the Sims from all around will start coming to you (and emptying your refrigerator).
