The game features the ability to visit any city created in SimCity 2000, as well as a network mode allowing for players to play deathmatches with up to seven other players. It is the last Maxis game to be developed and released without supervision by Electronic Arts, which acquired Maxis in the two months leading up to release.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
Audio
The soundtrack of the game was composed by Jerry Martin, known for composing music for The Sims and the SimCity series. The game includes several styles of music, represented via the radio stations. The stations include jazz, techno, bluegrass, and rock. Some of the music lived on and was included in The Sims, as music for "action television programs", as well as tracks on radio and audio systems.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
Reception
The game received unfavorable reviews from critics. Next Generation said, "Streets of Sim CityTemplate:Sic is better left on the store shelves. With its surprisingly high system requirements (P166 and 32 MB of RAM at a minimum), the game already has a limited audience by necessity. [...] Pass on this one and dig out Interstate '76 instead – same idea, much more fun."<ref name=ngen/> PC PowerPlay found that even on a Pentium II 266MHz, the game slows down noticeably when there are multiple moving objects on screen. Their review went on to state that the idea behind the game is a good one, and the graphics look good, but the game's driving physics and gameplay let it down.
Support
A fan-made patch exists which allows the game to be installed and run under 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. The patch also fixes bugs and allows the game to be played either windowed or in full screen.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
