Fans of the SimCity line of games are in for a real treat -- EA just released SimCity Deluxe into the Android Market. Build and manage a city in seven different multifaceted scenarios -- everything from planning the World Games to dealing with a flesh-melting heat wave.

You start off with seven cities that were inspired by real-world places and the ability to manipulate each one to your liking, with access to over fourty well-known landmarks to add to the mix.

Since you're the town's keeper, it's up to you to ensure safety during catastrophes like blizzards, electrical storms, locust plagues, or even meteor showers all around. As if that wasn't enough, you can even be struck by multiple disasters at once. Have fun with that.

SimCity Deluxe is optimized for tablets and phones alike, and is available in the Market for $4.99 US, and there is also a version available from EA Nederland B.V. for $5.50.
