I just received this from eBay USA: "SimCity Classic - Deluxe Edition for Windows". Pretty much the definitive version of SimCity Classic. The Deluxe Edition will install both the official SimCity graphic packs and the Terrain Editor.
By now it's probably mostly forgotten fact, but if you're in for some 16-color 32x32 .ICO nostalgia, the Moricons.dll is still available even in Windows 10 (not sure about 11). Look for it at %SystemRoot%\System32\moricons.dll. #retrocomputing#msdos#windows3x#windows
EDIT: @SkySorcerer confirmed it's present also on Win11
Will be going live on #Twitch at 12:30 AM CST will be checking out Maupiti Island by Lankhor I'm a #SmallStreamer so please boost this post and raids are greatly appreciated.

Fans of Cryo's 1992 #Dune game for #MSDOS might know that the composer, Stéphane Picq, released a remixed and remastered version of the excellent soundtrack the same year on CD, but it was extremely rare and difficult to acquire legally.
I just discovered he's finally sorted out the legal issues surrounding this album and released a freshly remastered version that also includes the original AdLib soundtrack. It's free to stream, so check it out!
Whale’s Voyage is a 1993 space exploration and trading game. It combines menu-based space travel and turn-based combat. Players customize the Whale, a spaceship that needs better engines and weapons. The music and sound design create a sense of adventure and space. Whale’s Voyage is a product of its time, a rich and engaging game for fans of space and strategy.
The Air Fighter is another unit familiar to players of the First Landing campaign. It has exactly the same strengths and weaknesses here in the polar regions as it does in the desert: fast, with a decent attack range, but weak and easily shot down. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
The Snowmobile is a modified Ground Rover adapted for the wintry conditions of the ice caps. Its retractable snow skis allow it to move over the snowy plains at top speed. It is a light unit, with modest attack power and short attack range. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
The Ice Tank is a modified Laser Tank, fitted with snow skis like the Snowmobile. Its great weight still slows it down in the snow plains though, so it only travels at top speed along roads. It has more attack power than any unit except the Gun Platform. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
The Gun Platform is the most powerful attack unit. Normally static, it can be mounted on a carriage for fast travel along monorail lines. This makes it a devastating unit for defending a large built-up mining installation. It can take out some small units in one hit. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
