Can a bitch just get Sim Tower?! I miss that game the most from childhood…

Check out Project Highrise. Felt pretty similar to the nostalgia.

This one and SimCopter took way more of my time than any of the other Sim games by a mile. I was especially surprised because SimCopter was full 3D and my old hardware could run it.

I don't know how well a remaster of either would sell, but I'd buy them. SimCopter could even be a mobile game at this point.
