I really like the political aspect of the game, how you need to balance building a city with keeping different types of factions happy. It sets up this feedback loop where what you'll build next is largely based on what keeps a certain faction from overthrowing you. The game isn't that deep aside from that but I liked revisiting this simple sort of game from my childhood.

Not an amazing game but it does let you play as Lou Bega
