Why can't I play Sim City anymore?

I feel like I've tried everything!! Why can't I play Sim City anymore?
I'm on a Mac. Everything is updated. I have enough space to play. Every time I load my game it crashes when my city opens up. 

Please, any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks!

    @VicChick88 Does it crash when you start a new game? This could be an issue with a corrupt save. 

    Is it possible to try starting a new city to test?

    This problem started with the High Sierra update back in October 2017. It's been a long year for Mac mayors. Many thanks to our dedicated mayor @jbd00 for beta testing the newest update, MacOS 10.14, which is slated to release this fall - he has confirmed the issue is finally fixed! 

    In the meantime, some people have had success playing SimCity on a boot camp drive or virtual Windows machine.

    True 🙂 But as the EA-representative mentioned, does this only occur on one speciffic save, or does this also happen when you try to start a new city?
