> After my lecture, a Maxis employee who shall remain nameless buttonholed me. "You guessed right," she said. "Sim Tower was built around a real elevator simulation program we bought from a Japanese guy."
I loved simant as a kid but tried to replay it when i was a teenager. I discovered then that the simulation was fairly broken and simplistic which kinda bummed me out, but I learned how to beat the game in <10 minutes. But other people have managed to get that even faster https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1B24Vvik2I
SimAnt is the only game I can get to work on my Amiga1200, as it was installed on the HD - all the 3.5" disks I had otherwise have [obviously] rotted over the intervening 20+ years.
A great wee game - I always hoped they'd revisit the idea with an updated version. One day, perhaps!
