My vote is for Pharaoh or Caesar III.

Pharaoh was my favorite.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I haven't played Pharaoh in so long - I think I'll dig up a copy and install it.  In the same vein there was also 'Emperor" (Chinese theme) and Zeus (Greek theme).

simcity 4 upgraded with the NAM, the CAM, the RHW and what not.
Seconded, it still is the best out there.

Zeus and the Poseidon expansion were good, too, and Tropico was fun.

I reinstalled SC4 recently. Now I just need to figure out how to get a bunch of the neat new buildings added in easily.

Clearly you were high on painkillers. That shit gets old fast.

it wasn't awful but it was very simplistic. Lots of filling your town with skate parks and that kinda thing

Why would you want to do such a terrible thing?  Fill your town with skate parks?  That has a strong chance of attracting skaters.

Hmmm.  You could build all the coffee shops, skate parks, and quirky used bookstores in one area, then wall it off.  Then press one of those disaster buttons and have a tornado or Godzilla attack.

I liked the Caesar games, and the ones that came after by the same company - Pharoah, Chinese city builder. Pharoah and Caesar were my favorites.

I wanted to like all those Roman city builders, but they insist throwing in a war element. If I wanted that I'd play R:TW.
