Eye On Miami is creating it’s own Miami Sim City. Well, not really. But they did make a guide on how to play this “new online real estate game.” Among the many game steps, my favorites include:

Invest in a politician, a lawyer, and a lobbyist. Choose carefully. Buy points to fend off threats.

Hire a traffic planner to show your development will have no impact on surrounding roads. Lie.

Put personal property in wife's name.

You can add your own suggestions for the game by commenting here. --Lauren Papiernik
