Small Universe: LinCity-NG 2.0

,----[ Quote ]
| Lincity-NG (the NG means Next Generation) is a graphical and game-oriented 
| city planning simulation, now updated in version 2.0, that not only includes 
| graphic enhancements but provides entire ecosystem simulation.  
| 
| Improvements went into water simulation and landscape elements, such as 
| grass, trees and desert areas, which are rendered more realistically. 
| Elements include various types of bridges (including for railroads), street 
| surfaces and fountains. Life near tainted industrial areas isn't depicted as 
| particularly pleasant, although parks help in reducing the damage.
