Old towncity building game (1995, 1996?)

Hi folks,

I am looking for an old game (and have been looking for some time now) in which you could, IIRC, build towns or cities. I only remember a few specific things which has made my search rather difficult.

Things I am certain about:

- After playing the game for a while, it would show some sort of game over screen (mostly a greay backgroudn with a yellow bulldozer in it) *

- Unlike in SimCity games, you built individual houses instead of marking areas

- The game looked better than SimCity 2000

* I don't recall what it said, maybe I had a shareware version or I went bankrupt

I think the goal of the game was to build a town or a city. Like in SimCity, if you clicke don one of the houses you'd hear a doorbell ring (but that's so univeral for citybuilders that it's probably not going to help). The game was set in "modern" times I think and I probably played it in the mid-nineties (95, 96?).

I know I don't have a lot of info, but if anything comes to mind, I'd be glad to hear it!

SimTown? Dunno but there is a list on Wikipedia you could look through.
