Everyone in our family LOVES Sim City 4. It is addictive. But while the game interface may be fairly intuitive, the strategies and tips that help you build really big cities can be elusive. This guide gives you all the details you need and gives many useful tips for taking your simulation to a higher level. The book is well organized into chapters on getting started, modes of play, zoning, finance, utilities, transportation, education, rewards etc, and finishes with multiple city play, business deals, disasters, landmarks and even cheats; however, this book does not offer help with the Rush Hour expansion that may be included with your game, so there is no help on driving the many vehicles and their accompanying missions. I also found that some of the things I especially wanted to learn about, like monorails, were not included, so there must have been subsequent changes to the software. Stil this book has been very helpful. There are lots of pictures, though they are a bit fuzzy. I would recommend this book to someone who wants a handy list of the many details needed to step up the gameplay.

This is an excellent well written strategy guide. I highly recommend this book.
Good to have but could have played a more important role...

This book is pretty good and will be helpful for every Sim City 4 player. It explains many overall strategies, and gives valuable tips.Unfortunately, the book could have been much better. The game itself doesn't have a real manual, leaving the player wondering about the most basic game mechanics. While it shouldn't be up to a strategy guide to explain these things, it would have been a great oportunity for the authors of this book to provide that type of information, which would have made this book a must-buy.Without that information, this book is a good resource for people who are serious about this game and have already figured out the basics through trial and error.Overall I am glad I bought this book.
SimCity 4 is going to be wicked.

So far the actualy GAME is in development, so this book will probably explain how to do stuff, *advanced techniques.* A great book this should be for the new people playing the game.
