SimCity Societies is a city-building simulation computer game of Electronic Arts (EA) and is part of the ''Sim'' games series. The game was developed by Tilted Mill Entertainment and was released worldwide on November 13 2007.
On June 5 2007, Tilted Mill Entertainment, creator of Caesar IV, announced that it would be developing SimCity Societies instead of Maxis, which had created all preceding titles. Rob Humble, head of EA's Sims Division, indicated that EA representatives had asked Tilted Mill to create the game at E3. Fans reacted poorly on the official forums of the developer towards this game. Responses directly from the developers attempted to ease some concerns.
While previous mainstream SimCity titles could be best described as mayordship, or "God" simulators, SimCity Societies is different, as foreshadowed by the previews and statements from the developers, by being a "social engineering simulator" rather than a city-building simulator.
