Even though the Engine is already old-the Game still sets Standards in terms of Economic Simulations!
The Product Range and Production Chains are clear, basically there are three different Production Levels: Raw Materials, Factories and processing Industries. Here there are only a few Who need three different Inputs for their Final product, most Industries only need two, sometimes only one other Product for Further Processing. Thanks to a good Balance Sheet Page, you always keep track of your Income and Expenses.
In order to bring the Products to the Cities there are Trucks and Trains. Here, too, the Selection is clear, which makes the Construction very easy. In cities, department stores are built To sell the Goods. Here it is very easy to see how high the Demand per Quarter is in each case; Accordingly, the Production of the Goods is adapted. Over Time, Cities grow and Demand increases. As Playtime progresses, new Vehicles (and new Products) come into Play.
The Graphic is outdated but fit for purpose; The Sound as well. The Tutorial is short and simple, but absolutely sufficient to understand the Game; Most Of it is self-explanatory.
Compared to more modern WiSims, this is still the gold standard! Easy to play, good Tutorial, simple Production Chains and with good Long-term Motivation. It's just a shame that there are no Patches or Updates with more modern Products ...
For the Prize, don nisin wrong! ;-)

Heyo ...
I had to think for a long Time about how I could offer you a good Review ... But I'm sure it works out So that the Game itself is Old-school of course and comes from 2002 ... so 15 Years it's already old.
New ones among You or Graphic Pampered people are unlikely to Get your Fun.
It is a Game that builds on your Mind as well as Combination ability.
You don't have to have an Idea of Economics ... One should only understand the Terms and Meaning of the Words "Demand and Supply."
For Beginners I can only Recommend you to start in the Food Industry. Find a Big or Middle City out with Juicy Lawn nearby ... A Grocery Store (During Construction, one of the Sales Markets is shown or even the Demand) ... A Warehouse (Must be connected to the Store) ... 2 Farms (fruit tomatoes) ... 2 Cowsheds (Milk and Meat) ...
And you already have a safe Start that brought me a Profit of about 400,000 to 600,000 every Month. Jeh by Season.
After that, you can Test ... And Testing become Newcomers a lot. The Game explains almost nothing and Helpful Ads in the middle of the Game don't exist if then you have to do the Learning missions.
For LIlover a must be in the Library.
I can also Recommend it to others. Time can be spent with it.
Through 2 Friends I have already been Able To convince you that you need about 2 Hours of Learning time with someone who Helps you.
Achso I played the Game Size Part Then via CD and not via STeam. So the Low Excuse playing Time.
