Agreed. SimCity2000/Civ/Other games that require minimal thinking to succeed is max comfy /vr/ stuff. The Win95 UI is a massive improvement imo.

The original SC is comfier.

When I want to chill out, I usually play on the lowest or second lowest difficulty, that's why I said minimal thinking. If I want a challenge, I go for Diety in Civ2 and get my ass handed to me, or in SC when disasters come and go like people in a train station and the city needs massive repairs I just quit.

Just install Windows 8.1 anon and avoid going to the Windows 10. The former is easily compatible for all your Yoda Stories needs and addictions, while the latter might break compatibility. I have never heard of compatibility working right with Windows 10, while I specifically installed Windows 8.1 with the expectation that I could play Yoda Stories.

You are in good hands anon. Godspeed, and good luck finding a Yerba Buena.

It works in Wine. You can run Wine inside the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
