From Quiz ""Sim City 2000""





Sim City Trivia Questions

1. How much does a Microwave Power Plant cost?

From Quiz
"Sim City 2000"

Answer: $28,000

You shouldn't really try to buy a Microwave Power Plant until much later in the game. They're VERY expensive, despite their amazing efficiency. There's also a (small) chance that the beam could misfire and destroy most of your city, but don't let that put you off buying one, it happens extremely rarely!

2. When was 'Sim City 4' released?

From Quiz 'Sim City 4' - General Information

About at the same time you get 500 people, the Mayor's House is unlocked. To unlock the Casino, you need to complete a certain mission. When you complete this mission, it will have Casino in blue lettering and underlined. Clink on Casino or go to business deals and place it in your city. It makes you $300 each month.

4. "Sim City" lets people test their mayoral instincts with a variety of scenarios. How many scenarios are there in all?

From Quiz City Planning 201

Answer: 8

Once a person beat the six main scenarios, two bonus scenarios open. These are much more difficult than the first six. The first of these bonus scenarios takes place in Las Vegas which is constantly being bombarded by UFO attacks. The second bonus scenario challenges the player to build a Megalopolis (500,000 people) on a map with no water, and no gifts either.

5. What do you win when your city reaches 30,000 population?

From Quiz "Sim City 2000"

Answer: Statue

If you use the query tool on your statue after you've placed it, you will be told how many pigeons have perched on it! The statue is only one square in size, but it's still the size of an average house in "Sim City". (You can access the query tool by holding shift and clicking on whatever you want info on.)

6. How many expansion packs are there for 'Sim City 4'?

From Quiz 'Sim City 4' - General Information

From Quiz City Planning 201

27. What is the maximum possible rate of taxes?

From Quiz "Sim City 2000"

Answer: 20%

You COULD raise your taxes to 20%, but everyone would move out of the city because they would be unable to afford them, and then you would run out of money from the diminished population. You'd then have to lower your takes in order to bring them back, by which time you'll be in serious debt! A good number to keep your taxes is about 7% or 8%. Any higher than that, and the people will let you know.

28. For Metropolis status (100,000 people), what gift is awarded to the player?

From Quiz City Planning 201

Answer: Nothing

Unfortunately, all the player gets for this milestone is a pat on the back. Two Windmills are awarded in the game, one when 150 zones are developed and the other when 500 zones are developed. The Fountain is given for the city's 50 year anniversary. The Statue of the Mayor gift is given in "Sim City 2000" and is awarded for 50,000 people.
