OpenCity is a free and open-source software 3D city-building game started in 2003 by France-based Vietnamese programmer Duong-Khang Nguyen. The game mechanics are similar to SimCity,[2] although the game developers do not strive to make it a direct SimCity clone.

Gameplay

In the game, the player builds a city by marking land as commercial, industrial or residential zones. Those zones depend on each other to grow. The player is also required to supply the city with power and connect the different zones by building roads.

Origins and development

OpenCity is the product of programmer Duong-Khang Nguyen and 3D artist Frédéric Rodrigo. Nguyen was inspired by the open source game FreeReign; when he realized that the FreeReign project was cancelled and the

OS X[6] and many Linux distributions.[7][8][9]

Reception

OpenCity achieved a broad spread as

Chip.de in 2013.[2]
