I was very disappointed about SimEarth. SimCity was really good, but SimEarth
is more a Push-lever-and-look-what-happens 'game'. It's not as fascinating as
SimCity and Civ. RRT is also good, SimAnt better than SimEarth. But SimEarth
- I must repeat this - is in my opinion only a demonstration, not a game...
