The western design for SimCity is pretty iconic at this point, utilising building rooftops to spell out the game’s title. Simple, but effective! The use of colour in the text kinda looks like a sunset too, and we’re always up for a good sunset, y’know.

Overall, a great design!

Sorry, is this SimCity or Fallout? This looks very retro, and not in the usual ’80s pixel art kinda way. We’re talking proper retro, and it actually looks pretty awesome. We can see what looks to be a machine of sorts being used to build a city, which we can see in the small screen being ravaged by a tornado.

There’s lots of little knobs and dials to control stuff like disasters, population, and budget, and it’s just a really cool take on the game’s overall premise. We like it.

Thank you for voting! We’ll see you next week for another edition of Box Art Brawl!
