Simcopter SimCopter is a 1996 computer game from Maxis. This game is another 3D offshoot from Maxis's normal fare, again putting the player into a 3D city. Like Streets of SimCity, SimCopter also lets the user import SimCity 2000 maps into the game. Objective As the name implies, SimCopter puts the player in the role of a helicopter pilot. There are two modes of play. The free mode, lets the player import and fly through cities of their own or any of the 30 cities supplied with the game. The second mode is the heart of the game, the career mode. This puts the player in the shoes of a pilot doing various jobs around the city. These jobs include: The player starts with a small, weak helicopter, but as they accumulate money they can upgrade their existing helicopter and purchase new ones. Some jobs require certain equipment in order to complete them, and better helicopters offer greater speed, handling, and capacity. By completing jobs, the player earns money and points. When the player has accumulated enough points, the game lets them move on to the next city. The player then has a choice of going into a new city of the same difficulty or advancing to the next level. There are ten levels of difficulty, with new types of jobs being introduced and previous types of jobs increasing in difficulty. The player is assisted by medics and police which will ride in the helicopter and can be deployed when necessary. The player can also dispatch police cars, fire engines, and ambulances. There are five virtual radio stations that can be listened to while in the helicopter: classical, rock, jazz, techno and a mix station featuring all songs from every other station. The file format of the music is low quality WAV, and if a user wants, they can import their own music into the game as long as the music uses the WAV format as well.
