Just curious, but did you run the name past a lawyer before using it? Sim<Noun> strikes me as perhaps a little too close to the Maxis series.

Looks neat either way though. I've put it on my list of games to [p]review once I get back to writing stuff up (been on an extended break due to illness).

Oh yes, of course! Quite a while back, and certainly well prior to registering the trademark. Can't discuss it publicly beyond that, however. :)
