You know what time it is. It's #Maxis time!
Here's a beautiful release filled to the brim with manuals so thick they would make Tolkien blush.
Sadly the disks are 800K Mac formatted so I can't actually read them on my Macs as they are "too modern." I think it's ok if I fetch an image from the Garden in this case 😄️
This was apparently a limited edition, though I don't know how limited it was.

@jibsaramnim I had collection 2 for Windows. Naturally, it also came with SimCity Classic, but also SimFarm and SimEarth. I got SimAnt separately with a PDF-alike online manual. SimAnt and SimFarm were so formative for me.

A few years ago I worked at a place with good scanners, so I sliced off the spine and scanned the combined manual: https://archive.org/details/sim-classics-collection-2-manual

Great stuff.

@jibsaramnim It was very limited. Shortly afterwards they released the CD version of it (which i own) which included PowerPC support. Nice find!
