SimCity 3000 is a city building simulation personal computer game released in 1999, and the third major installment in the SimCity series. It was published by Electronic Arts and developed by series creator Maxis, a wholly owned subsidiary of EA. It was released for Windows, Macintosh, and, through an arrangement with Loki Games, Linux. It states to contact a Game Advisor for a digital rendering of an older disc game (for newer platforms such as Windows 10) but nothing older than Sim City 4 is listed in 'first, choose a game'. I have the disc for 'Sim City 3000 Unlimited' but am having trouble with it now.

What is SimCity 3000? SimCity 3000 is the follow up to SimCity 2000 which is a classic city builder in isometric view. originally planned to be in 3D like what SimCity(2013) and Cities Skylines are but following the Maxis purchase by Electronic Arts (EA) the game was reworked to be isometric like SimCity 2000 and SC4 and Lincity/ng. You probably already know more about SC3K anyway so why bother reading this? apple_campus_installer.sit(245.03 KiB / 250.91 KB) / compressed w/ Stuffit 797 / 2015-08-09 / 59ee5935499e96ca82cd0cdf4ce6f59c5446993a / / SimCity_3000_Extras.zip(11 MiB / 11.54 MB) / Zipped 360 / 2015-08-09 / cc594f385a68cc6427c4e9c9bc48d5dab9e954dc / / SimCity3000.toast_.sit(505.83 MiB / 530.4 MB) / Toast image, compressed w/ Stuffit 208 / 2017-11-20 / 28887e25ecec2796239e0604ca5972a5f2c614ba / / SimCity_3000.toast.zip(509.76 MiB / 534.52 MB) Mac OS 9 - OSX 10.4 Tiger / Toast image, zipped 1662 / 2017-06-07 / 2017-06-07 / 990a02bc9af061d45108ebf62c7a46374a9da968 / / Architecture IBM PowerPC From Mac OS 7.5 up to Mac OS 10.4 Compatibility notes Architecture: PPC At least 32MB of RAM (recommended 64MB) with at least 128MB of virtual memory (So you CANNOT use SheepShaver because of this) Mac OS 7.5.3 - Mac OS 9.2.2 - Mac OS X 10.4 QuickTime 3.0 or later At least 360MB of free hard disk space (including virtual memory occupied space) (Notes from User: CaelThunderwing) to Run without it complaining about the CD, do not use toast, instead use the 'Virtual CD/DVD Utility' found at https://www.macintoshrepository.org/1616-virtual-dvd-rom-cd-utility Winsql 9 professional serial number. on Real Hardware: a G4 Quicksilver will run but you may encounter some hickups along the way if you have more than 512MB Ram installed, as OS9 automaticly past the 960 mark disabled Virtual Memory and SC3k will complain about this!
