My Little Pony: SimEquestria

My Little Pony: SimEquestria  (Also known as just SimEquestria)  is a simulation game  based on the My

Little Pony franchise, specifically the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic TV show. It is also an entry in Maxis' "Sim" line of games. It is made and published by Maxis (Now a division of EA), and licensed by Hasbro. It is for PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC/Mac (Via Orign), Wii, PS4, and Nintendo 3DS.

Story (Excuse my crappy storytelling)
You are Celestia. A huge twister caused by an accident with the weather patrol has caused you to need to rebuild Ponyville, Cloudsdale, Canterlot, and Appleoosa. Ponies have been evacuated elsewhere. Your job is to get residence back up in those areas.

Gameplay
The game is very similar to SimCity. You place Residential, Commercial, and Farm Zones, as well as Roads, Schools, Police Stations,and Hospitals. you need to pay for these with bits. However, it is cut into 4 areas. These areas have different needs and things you can build. Ponyville will need mostly residence, whereas Appleoosa will need mostly Farm Zones, and Canterlot will need mostly Commercial zones, and Cloudsdale will need mostly special buildings. They all, however, need each, just more or less of it. The area-exclusive buildings are:

Ponyville Cloudsdale Canterlot Appleoosa
 * Ponyville Retirement Villages (No more than 2 allowed)
 * Clock Tower (No more than 1 allowed)
 * Cutie Mark Crusaders Clubhouse
 * Town Hall (No more than 1 allowed)
 * Rainbow Factories
 * Cloud Mashing Factories
 * Weather Patrol HQs
 * Flight Schools (No more than 4 allowed)
 * Towers
 * Royal Areas (No more than 1 allowed)
 * Apple Orchards

There is also a weather control element of the game, which you must control the weather accoring to what the four sections need.

The PC/PS4/PS3/Xbox 360/Wii U versions use 3D SimCity 2013 style graphics, while the Wii and 3DS versions use isometric graphics to save space and give nostalgia to those who played SimCity 2000 and SimCity 3000.

Disasters (From highest to lowest tier)
Like SimCity, the game has disasters.

This is when somepony breaks something major. The resolution is to put bits into rebuilding said place. Costs most when in Cloudsdale. When Rainbows spill from factories. This costs bits to get Cleanup Crews, and draws ponies away from whichever area it is in. Timber Wolves have a mass outbreak. In this case, you must repair all destroyed buildings An Ursa Minor has attacked! This draws ponies away. You also have to repair buildings. This is comparable to the Monster attack in SimCity (Bowser in SNES version) Same as Ursa Minor, but on larger scale
 * Derpy Disaster
 * Rainbow Spill
 * Mass Timber Wolf Outbreak
 * Ursa Minor Attack
 * Ursa Major Attack

To SimCity
The main 6 ponies advise you (And Derpy when nothing's wrong), similar to that of the SNES version of SimCity. It also uses the same sound effects as SNES SimCity.

The graphics on the Wii/3DS versions are a direct reference to SimCity 2000.

To My Little Pony
"Derpy Disaster" is a reference to Derpy's scene in "The Last Roundup."

Ocasionally, you will see a Pegasus pony flying around on weather patrol. These are Rainbow Dash, Derpy Hooves, Cloud Kicker, and (very rarely) Firefly (From G1).
