An earthquake is the only disaster in SimCity 2000 that is not influenced by city conditions; all cities are fair game. You'll know an earthquake by a brief period of shaking followed by random fires and destruction throughout your city.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Immediately contain all fires that erupt after the shaking stops.
  2. 2
    Ensure every single fire is extinguished.
  3. 3
    Repair the significant damage to your city.
Tips
  • Be prepared for widespread damage and fires; it's a challenging repair process.
  • Focus on extinguishing all fires first, as they can spread and worsen the situation.
