Oh, interesting. I thought it came from Don't Starve but they must have been adopting this from SimCity.

Yes, it’s a relatively common SimCity reference, though I could swear I saw “Don’t Starve” say “Reticulating Pines”.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen another game than simcity give it a voiceover...
