"SimTower: The Vertical Empire," released in 1994 by Maxis, is a simulation game that challenges players to construct and manage a towering skyscraper. Inspired by the success of "SimCity," "SimTower" adopts a similar isometric viewpoint and emphasis on strategic planning. Players must balance the needs of their tenants, such as offices, hotels, and condominiums, while providing essential services like elevators, security, and utilities. As the tower grows, challenges increase, including managing traffic flow, optimizing space usage, and dealing with emergencies. "SimTower" was praised for its depth, engaging gameplay, and innovative premise, becoming a beloved classic in the simulation genre.
