Backport of the classic Micropolis (aka SimCity) game to Windows (Win32/NT). The primary goal is to make the game playable on NT RISC machines like Alpha AXP, MIPS, PowerPC PPC, Itanium IA64 and ARM.

But is it aimed to work with win32s? I would love to see some new software ports for win32s because right now I don't see a single reason to install it. WinTown wouldn't change it as SimCity is available for Windows 3.1.

a PR for fixing NT 3.1 is issued: https://github.com/tenox7/wintown/pull/7

for win32s support, more investigation is needed and for now main game screen is black.
