SimCity Guide › Essentials › SimCity World

SimCity World

Now that you have a good grasp on what it takes to be a successful Mayor, look to SimCity World for a deeper and more rewarding experience.

Did your friend just pass you on the Crime leaderboard? Then get busy filling your city with criminals to reclaim your position. Or perhaps you’re ready to take on a challenge, requiring you to work with other mayors in your region to complete a specific goal in a short span of time? Did you just buy some alloy this morning?

Check its current price on the global market—if the price has gone up, consider exporting that alloy to net an easy profit. The ever-changing dynamics offered by SimCity World ensure there’s always new ways to interact with the game and the community, creating a fresh gameplay experience no matter how long you’ve been sitting in the Mayor’s chair.

CityLog

Access the CityLog feed directly from the main menu. This is a great way to receive updates of recent activity while you were away from the game.

CityLog is the pipeline to your fellow mayors, feeding you messages and updates from the SimCity community. A popup appears whenever you have a new message. Click on the CityLog button in the lower left corner to view the latest message feed.

The CityLog lists your friends’ latest activities, including whenever they start a new region, their achievements, notable rankings, and invitations to play in their region. The CityLog also displays challenge updates, announcing the start of a challenge and the eventual winner. Click any of these messages to be taken to view details of the message or update.
