Zchinque: What reviews? All reviews I can remember have given pretty high scores.
And why? Because it is the most humorous and charming city sim around. And you can send psychopaths with chainsaws to destroy your opponent's properties. That's a plus.
Smannesman: I was kind of hoping you weren't going to call me on that :P
It was meant as a motivational tool to get you talking, I don't have any real data.
I vaguely remember liking it as a kid, but I was hoping you would start ranting about how cool it was.
So why not Mob Rule?
Isn't it similar?
Oh I did find one review with a low score after looking high and low:
Computer and Videogames.
But I think their rating system is messed up or something because the tiny review is actually positive.
I might get Constructor actually, for nostalgic reasons.
I've never played Mob Rule, so I can't really compare the two. Any opinion I might have would be based on second hand sources - when it came out I remember reading that it was supposedly less charming than Constructor. It also, again supposedly, added nothing to the formula, while taking away certain features (such as free play).
That said, I wouldn't mind trying out Mob Rule, although it won't be this time.
