Community Insight:
We love big business been playing since it launched we just wish they had it to where we can connect to Facebook to save progress.
No funcant keep up with growing the city w/o spending REAL CASH for City Cash.
We love this game! We used to play it years ago and lost it but now Im back. We cant stop playing!! Its awesome and addicting.
It dont require internet to play. Just about every device is compatible and it really allows the time to go by fast if youre waiting for something.
We played this for several years from its inception. We were addicted! But then you couldnt find it anymore in the app store & GI said they were discontinuing the game. Its been a long time & suddenly we can download it again. The main problem is that there are so many old players (like our old city) who, like us, quit playing that its hard to find friends who are still playing. So. Add us: Muddy Mermaid.
Honestly Ive loved this game as a young kid and even as an older teen this game is just as good as it was. A fun city building game with cool challenges and buildings. Honestly would recommend this game to anyone that would download it. Great game and always as good as it once was. Great job. Another thing we love about this game is that its not P2W (pay to win.) you dont have to spend real money to enjoy this game. Awesome job to the developers and keeping this game up for years.
Ive been playing the original BB everyday for 6 years we think, but it seems that game is on the way out. The Corp Im in there decided to start playing here in case the other game ends. We really like the way the corporation members can help each other and we learn together. We think BB is very different from other games of the same type. Glad BB Deluxe is here.
Fun game! But no longer has updates, since last iOS update can no longer access Friends to give them goods it just freezes up and then you lose your progress of your own tasks Will the game help us.
We used to have the older version but it all of the sudden stopped working correctly. Im really bummed and wish we didnt have to start over but we do really like the upgrades to this newer version. We wish they could have just upgraded the older version so we didnt have t lose all of our efforts but overall good job.
This is our 4th time beginning this game. We have lost 3 games and progress due to changes in venues. A new tablet, cannot save to new one, no longer available on Facebook game room, have to start all over on website, now have a new iPad had to start all over as well. Love the game but wish we could find our old one and progresses.
Game is still good.They keep it up to date with the iOS updated but they dont really do much for the events. Theyve stopped supporting new content, moved onto other things, and only maintain here. Real bummer. We like buying extras on games but skip spending money on this on now since its next to abandoned. Still a great game. Wish they come back to it and some of their others they left.
We played BB several years ago and LOVED IT! We just recently started playing again. Im having to start from the beginning but we really enjoy it.
When you first start out first 20 to 25 level making money is very slow you make it by tens and 20s. But you will spend it by the thousands expenditures number in the thousands factory expansion upgrading all in the thousands costs. One of the good things is there are no ads we like that a lot, but if there was an ad we could watch for bonus cash that would be a relief getting the extra money needed for all those thousands for everything.
If you ever have to get a new device or you delete the game you will lose progress. Other than that the game is great.
The game as a whole is pretty good. Lots of things to do and will keep you pretty captivated for a while, if you have the time to spare. Its really hard getting capital to spend on things because the businesses like coffee houses, hot dog stands, and skateparks that produce income, do not accumulate over time. When you get on 8 hours later, you will collect the same amount from them as when its first available to collect. The only money you really make is from the production of goods. Ive had to spend hours just spamming grain and flour to make quick cash to buy things. The other major problem is the administrative building. You have a limit on number of building you can have vs the level of your administrative building. The problem is, upgrading the building only gives you maybe 2-5 more building slots, and dumb things like trees take up building spots. So you end up spending so much money just trying to level up your administrative building to have room for buildings that you no longer have the money to purchase those buildings. One bug Ive been experiencing is the relocation tool. You have to manually move each building one by one, there is no way to edit the entire city at once and remove buildings. It takes forever. On top of that, in our city, we can only move 2-3 things before our game crashes and resets the progress of the last few movements. Im guessing that the devs are inactive because Ive played this a few years ago and not much has changed if anything. Once things start requiring more time Ill have to find a new game, we dont have the time to spend hours every day trying to make money to buy one building, or upgrade our administrative building AGAIN.
It says No server found/ has not found. Support doesnt work. We love the game but whats going on.
5+ yrs ago this was a great game now with no support and no way to update to new graphics game needs support or Im done with all games from this company.
We were playing this game for two months straight and it continuously would glitch and not work half the time we got sick of it and decided to delete the app. Then we download it on our phone again and it erased all our progress and we were at level 45. This game has way too many bugs but its really addicting but dont waste your time because as soon as you build up all your progress its going to get erased and It wont even be worth it.
It has not been updated in over a year so you dont have updated graphics. However, game insight still wants your money as you can make purchases for coins and bucks SMH.
Game insight really screwed us over. We simply transferred our data to our new iPad & city was all messed up, no support to help fix the problem, now our investment into Game Insight they just took the money & ran. Apple needs to remove Big Business from the App Store, they are a fraudulent company.
Por qu no us salen algunas misiones como la del dragn por ejemplo.
We played this game a couple years ago for quite some time. We only quit due to medical issues. Im back again bc we love this game. When we quit before we were in a corporation and had over 15 million dollars. You have to be a smart business person to get far in the game. We saw on a review where they wished there was a way to collect all the money at one time. Well there is. Just go to your briefcase and open it and scroll along until you come to a calculator. Use it and it will collect all your income. Its that simple. We recommend joining a corporation bc it gets you further in the game faster and you have the benefits of having friends to help you along the way and give you tips and free gifts. All in all we think this game is fabulous and recommend it to anyone who likes city building games.
A fun game but wished it would auto collect the cash so you can spend time running other things.
We are young and was looking for a game for a ride trip to pass the time and then delete it after but NO! We didnt delete this game we kept playing it because it was that fun, entertaining, and things dont take overly too long. Unlike their competitors sim city where you have to wait ages to get money.
Ive been searching for a game to replace Maritime Kingdom and this is as close as we can find.
Game has been playing great until today. We try opening it and it immediately closes. Ive even uninstalled it and reinstalled it but the same thing happens! What is up with that.
We played this a few years ago and now we are back. Fun game.
Some people will say anything to further alone their game. Im enjoying it these days.
The game itself is fun and addictive. But we have noticed there are a lot of little glitches. Like there isnt a link to link the game to social media. Even tho it is an achievement we cant link the two. Also sometimes you dont get things after redeeming them. They also never post anything in the blog section. And no new posts on social media accounts. We think the creators should give out monthly gifts that include rare items to make up for the lack of updates and bug fixes.
We enjoyed the game for a long time until expansions and improvements stopped. The periodic events are repetitive. Developers are making profit off the game without giving back to the players. Very disappointing.
We loved this game and been playing it on and off for 7 years. We have never had a problem making purchases from the bank until a couple of weeks ago. They advertised city credits for $9.99. We went to purchase and was charged $39.95 for the same amount of credits.
It not worth profile make money (coins) too much cost produce.
We like this game, however, when cashing in cane it is suppose to give cash but it isnt. Also, when putting out some fires cash is suppose to accumulate again it does not. So, we can only give this game one star for the fact it cheats the player.
Have been playing for years- terrific game. We don't spend money on apps. You can progress in this game without spending real dollars.
We're not a game person at all. We stumbled upon this app and have loved it for years. It's addicting, but not in a bad way, and keeps you so entertained. We recommend it to everyone. It's fun having a little app where you can make a whole city in your eyes. We just wished the city on our iPad transferred to our phone so we can also play on the go. But no complaints.
Total time waster. We recently lost our job over it but we're having so much fun. We work just enough to keep our phone on for this app.
In it for hours. Easy to use and pretty simple. Just don't get caught up growing it to fast haha.
We love this game and it is addictive game, but sadly you didn't support iphone x till now which make playing this game at iphone x terrible, since it still didn't support that big screen. Please support iPhone x, playing this game at iphone x big screen will make it very enjoyable.
We love this game but we've noticed when we up to a new level it doesn't give us the correct amount of cash bucks (forget their name lol). Other than that it really is addicting.
This game is so fun and amazing. If your just scrolling down the rates and stuff like that, then download this game right now to see how fun this game is.
They have stopped support, but are still taking money for in house purchases.
In game contest failed to deliver prizes and tech support wont load.
Pretty addictive game!! Like to get more money easier but hey u have to work for it lol.
One of the best city builder games for any platform PLUS THERE IS A DRAGON!! 9.5 / 10.
Love this game. We have three devices and three cities.
Awesome game. Doesn't get boring at all.
Very realistic and never a dull moment.
Good game but earn money is very strong.
It's a decent game to check in on during the quiet parts of your day.
The game is too slow to get big bucks and whenever we do a task before the quest it doesn't registered. Also, to buy cash is too expensive.
