OSG Issue #47 - July 2025 - Simulations

Simulations

You hold in your hands another upgraded generation of Old School Gamer! The Jaded Gamer, Bill Donohue, is going to concentrate on making this magazine as tight and awesome as possible as our Editor and handing off the duties of Lead Graphic Layout to Tristan Ibarra, with that comes his amazing skills of layout instead of you just hearing from him in written form on his magazine columns.
  
This issue covers a lot of things, but most of all, it covers games that are simulations, like you being the Mayor and City Council with SimCity, building your amusement park in Rollercoaster Tycoon, and controlling a bunch of Sims. Plus, world-building back on the Intellivision with Utopia and Flight Simulators in the early 1980s, 8-Bit style! Columns from Jeremy Parish, Chris Tang, Eugenio Angueira, and Tristan Ibarra are all part of this packed full issue! Enjoy!
