    In many ways it's even better than playing it on the PC. Highly recommended.

    The core game remains largely unchanged. However, if you're looking for a way to kill some time, or perhaps a way to inflate your ego a little by becoming the megalomaniacal mayor of a fake town, then this is a good way to do so, especially with this enhanced iPad edition.

    For Deluxe, you need a good sense of how SimCity works and what the game demands, or else you'll risk getting lost and frustrated.
