Electrocity
In Electrocity you take control of a town, and particularly it's energy resources (the game is sponsored by a New Zealand energy company), and your job is to make everyone living there happy, contented, and fully supplied with electric. A great looking little, SimCity-esque, game that sounds like it's going to take a while to play, but even with 150 turns (at which point the game ends) it's quite a short diversion [subbed by anon].

Stella

:
I think it depends on time too, i am in nz and left it overnight to load and stuck on 97% still, but then tried it at 10am ourtime and it loaded ok, maybe 8min. If loading slows to a halt, try loading in another window. It is a pretty cool game though

Screw this, I'll just play SimCity.

:
I played this twice. First time, I tried to be as environmently friendly as possible and ended up with a village. Second time, I just decided to screw the environment and I ended up with a city. Moral of the game? If you want a big city, bye bye nature.

Stella's link worked just fine for me. I just can't seem to make any money for my town.

I think they have fixed the problem now - it just loaded in about 10 secs - I waited for hours yesterday.

Any tips on how to get a city? My popluation has never exceeded 200,000.

HunterThompsonWanabe

:
I, for one, can't figure this game out at all. I either end up doing nothing but planting trees or finish the game with total environmental devastation over the town.

Every single time, if I don't go bankrupt, I always get an A , A-, C, and A+ ! baww, population.
Then I looked at the high score town and I was like, "HAX"
