Dime City, not to be confused with the motorcycle shop of the same name, is a largely obscure video game published in 1995 by German publisher Starbyte. It is basically a strategy game where opposing gangsters try to take control of the city, pretty much what today's Mafia Wars does.
The game is nothing to get too excited about, but it is so silly that it makes you want to continue playing just to see what silly thing is going to happen next. Silliest of all is how much the game tries to attract you by pretending to be sexy. It actually succeeded in making me want to throw it away out of the window after a couple of minutes. Sadly, nothing interesting seems to ever happen. So I would say that Dime City deserves a short look, but don't go thinking about trying to go all the way as it won't deliver.
My Abandonware has just put this rare game up for download, so go and give it a look. One word of warning: there are some moments where cartoon breasts are flashed around without care.
