Management & Simulation Games · 14
SimAnt from 1991 asked players to manage an ant colony, proving that simulation games could make a backyard ecosystem feel like a strategic world. There is a practical reason this matters in games: Simulation interfaces depend on layers and filters because a busy world can contain traffic, money, happiness and capacity problems in exactly the same place. Automation is wonderful until the automated system begins producing the wrong thing extremely efficiently.

Odd but true
Management games make waiting interesting by giving the player several clocks at once: construction, customer patience, resource production, day-night cycles and upgrade timers. And here is a completely different twist: Many simulation games deliberately exaggerate reality. A realistic restaurant shift would include hours of prep and cleaning; the game keeps the decisions and throws away most of the mop bucket.
