$$$$1,000,000

1. Spend all of your money. Every penny! Make sure you buy something that requires funding (Roads, Railroads, Police or Fire Stations). Make sure that the Auto Budget feature is off. 2. Reduce all funding levels and the tax level to 0% and wait until the tax year ends (December). While the financial screen is on, hold the L Button and select the "Go with figures" option. 3. Hit the X Button twice, causing the month to flip to January. Keep holding the L Button, then re-enter the financial screen and increase all funding levels to 100%. Leave the tax rate at 0% for now. At this point, your Current Funds must be 0 or less. 4. Exit the Financial screen and release the L Button. You'll be given $999,999!!! At this point you may raise the taxes, and place the Auto Budget feature on.

No floods in Rio de Janiero

Sent in by John Morgan For the scenario Rio de Janiero, pause the game as soon as you start out. Then go around bulldozing everything within five spaces of the coastline, regardless if it is developed or not. Then build parks in the five spaces between the coastline and the buildings. While the game is still in pause, it is useful to rebuild the buildings you bulldozed in open places away from the coastline. Unpause the game. When I did the scenario like this, I didn't even get one flood.

Extra Landforms

You can get extra Landforms by starting a new city, selecting a Landform, and when you start your game don't spend any money. Instead wait about 10 seconds, select the Total Screen, from the information menu, exit the Total Screen and select the Save/Lode menu. Choose Go to Menu and select No. Start a new city and the Lamdform will have changed. Click here

How to get the different gifts

The zoo appears after you build 1 or 3 Stadium's. Build the zoo's near Residential or Commercial zones for the greatest effect, or population increase. The Bank comes when you have less than $2,000. You get the Fire HQ when you build 6,12, and 18 Fire Stations. Build 6,12,and 18 Police Stations and you will get the Police HQs. You get the Train Station after building 50 and 200 kilometers of track. Build these near Commercial Zones. You get the Fountain after the city is 50 years old. Build near Commercial Zones. You get the Landfill's when your open land is only 150,100,50, and 30 acres. I don't know how, but I have gotten up to 9 of them in one game. You get a Library when you have 3, 6, and 9 Schools. You get a Windmill when you have 150 Developed Zones, I have been able to get two of them in one game, but don't know how. Get a population of 500,000 and you have the Mario Statue. Get a population of 2,000 and you have your home. Build near Residential Zones. To get the city parks, build 300, 600, and 900 acres of parks. Put near Commercial Zones. Get 50,000 people and an airport to get the Expo. Put near the Industrial Zones. For the View Model get 50,000 people. For the Amusement Park and Casino, build 300, 400, and 500 Kilometers of roads (You have to chose between them). Put near Residential Zones.

Tips on Scenarios

All Scenarios By the end of each Scenario, you must obtain a score of 600 and a population of at least 100,00. Otherwise, you will be fired by your citizens. Bern You have 10 years to complete this scenario. To control the traffic problem, bulldoze all of the roads that lead nowhere. Then, bulldoze all extra roads at the crossroads. Check the Traffic Density and replace the worst areas with Rails. Combining zones will save on roads, but it is also very expensive. Boston After the meltdown happens, pause the game and bulldoze around all areas affected by nuclear fallout and fires. Then, add zones in other areas to help the city rebuild. Be sure to add plenty of Parks. For the crime problem, check the Crime Rate Map and place overlapping Police Station coverage in those areas. Detroit There's very little police protection in Detroit, therefore, add Police Stations and Parks in the high crime areas. Bulldoze all of the extra roads and replace them with parks. Then, begin replacing roads with rails. Finally, place a Stadium near a residential area to help the area grow. Rio de Janeiro In this scenario, look for zones near the coastline that have little or no development. Bulldoze these zones and replace them with parks. Also, place parks along the coastline to reduce the force of the floods, and watch for fires caused by the flooding. Bulldoze around these fires and let them burn out. Bulldoze any extra roads and replace them with parks to lower the transit fund and raise land value. Finally, you may have to build a new Power Plant due to brownouts. San Francisco Before the earthquake hits, build a Fire Station next to each Power Plant. This will help ensure that the Power Plants survive the fires caused by the earthquake. After the quake, restore all power and take care of any fires by bulldozing around them and letting them burn out. Then, concentrate on rebuilding damaged or destroyed zones. Finally, check the Crime Rate Map to locate the areas dense with crime. Place Police Stations in the area so that their coverage overlaps. Tokyo Follow Bowser as he attacks. Bulldoze around the fires he creates and reconnect power lines. Once the fires burn out, pause the game and add residential zones and parks to increase the land value. Also, give the area plenty of Police Stations and make sure their coverage overlaps. Bulldoze undeveloped zones and extra roads and replace them with Parks. You may want to replace all of the Coal Power Plants with Nuclear Power Plants, however, this can be very expensive. Las Vegas Bulldoze all extra roads and replace them with parks. Then, gradually add Residential Zones until the first invasion. After the UFO attacks, pause the game and bulldoze around the fires. Reconnect downed Power Lines, let the fires burn out and gradually rebuild. Your city will be attacked approximately ten times, generally in the same areas. Be sure that you have enough money to deal with resulting fires. Freeland This land form is 12,000 acres and has no water, making it ideal for building the Megalopolis of your dreams. However, you will not receive any gifts in this Scenario, which makes creating a Megalopolis much more difficult. Remember to zone about 45% of your land for industrial use, 30% for residential use and 17% for commercial use.

Fighting crime

To pinpoint high crime areas, access your Crime Rates Map. Notice that the crime rate is concentrated in areas where there are few Police Stations or the land value is low. To remedy this, look at the police coverage and make sure that their areas overlap. In addition, build parks in all empty spaces around your developments.

How do land values go up and down?

Land value increases near water, forests and parks. You will also find that value is increased near the center of a land form. Gifts also make the land value increase. However, land value will decrease if some conditions get out of hand. If you find that pollution, crime and traffic jams are increasing, you will soon find the land value in that area has decreased. Another factor toremember is that citizens are willing to pay higher taxes when the land value is high.

How do you avoid financial despair?

Use these tips to avoid financial despair: Gradually build your city by only placing zones you really need. If you continually monitor the RCI Meter and Maps, you will have a good idea of what zoning your city requires. Also, if you have high land values, you may be able to increase the tax rate to nine or ten percent without causing much of a stir among your citizens. Finally, you can either take out a loan from the Bank, or use the $999,999 code.

How can I fight Pollution?

To locate high pollution areas, continually monitor your Pollution Map. You'll notice that the areas causing high pollution are Industrial Zones, Airports, Seaports, Coal Plants and Roads. To bring the pollution down to a tolerable level, use Rails and Nuclear Power only. Fill in all empty spaces with Parks and spread out industrial areas. Also, make sure that you keep the industrial areas away from Airports. Keep in mind that pollution isn't that big of a problem as long as it is not affecting residential zones.

What is the best way to handle taxes?

A seven percent tax rate is acceptable during the beginning of the game, because you need plenty of funds to begin building your city. However, once you don't need as much money, lower the tax rate to four or five percent to keep your citizens happy. Remember: if you have high land values, your citizens will be willing to pay more taxes.

How can I get rid of traffic jams?

If you use only Rails in your city, you will never have traffic jams. However, if you're using Roads, try to keep them as straight as possible. You will notice that traffic jams most commonly occur where the road curves or where it intersects. Continually monitor the Traffic Density Map and if you notice problem areas, replace the Road with Rails or straighten the Roads out.

How can I keep unemploymnt low?

Unemployment problems arise when Residential Zones are placed too far away from Commercial Zones, or there are too few Industrial Zones. Make sure that there are always Commercial Zones near Residential Zones, and that the Commercial Zones are continually developing.

How can I get more room to build?

There are two answers to this question: down-sizing and zone stacking. Down-sizing: Airports, Seaports and Stadiums take up a lot of room, but there is a way to decrease their size. As soon as an airplane flies over the Airport, Seaport or Stadium, quickly activate the Plane Crash disaster. The plane will go down on the targeted building and a fire will consume most of it. As long as one section of the building remains intact, the facility will continue to operate effectively. This gives you more room to build! Zone Stacking: When most Residential Zones first develop, buildings show up as small modules. If you're trying to create more space, bulldoze one edge of the zone and place another zone over it. The down-fall to this method is that none of these type of zones will ever fully develop.

What land forms have the least amount of water?

The land forms with the least amount of water are 61 with 13% water, 137 with 15% water and 714, also with 15% water. You can also bulldoze along the water's edge to create more land.
