How to Play Before playing, determine which mode you prefer. Freeplay mode gives you the ability to build a city from the ground up without having to worry about satisfying any goals. Scenarios on the other hand offer 20 pre-built maps, each with its own win criteria (e.g. increase population to over 200,000). Once, the game mode is chosen, it's up to you to manage the city properly. As mayor, you are responsible for everything that occurs in the city. Taxes need to be adjusted to generate income. Buildings need to be constructed for your Sims to live, work, and shop at. Crime, fires, and other disasters need to be taken care of. Finally, the budget must be balanced to avoid bankruptcy.
