Community Insight:
We love this game. For whatever reason we are addicted to it. We dont know how, but it needs to be easier to get land. We have no space and we have our roads built to max out the area we have but its not enough. That being said, its one of the best games Ive ever played.
When we look at the videos on youtube theres people at the dog park and sharks and etc. Why did you guys take that out? That was the best part.
This game is fun, but we really miss the Halloween edition with the decorations and music.
Great game, love love,it. Cant stop playing, just love it.
Great graphics very fun it would be great if there were more different kinds of houses, vehicles to make more money, fruits, vegetables, plants, trees, animals.
The game was the best game ever and if u ever play u will never stop we have tried so many dory games and with our short attention span we get bored over time but this has Ben perfect please try it it wont disappoint.
We really love this game and we are enjoying it. We hope that you will make some updates to it.
So far so good; a little hard to get coins.
We love this game. Ive been playing it on and off for a few years.
We just migrated most of our Storm8 games over from an Android, so we're back in the honeymoon zone with them because they actually run like games and not torture devices. We guess that the tax you pay on iTunes microtransactions covers the difference between fun and agony. Also, push notifications actually happen and make sense on iOS, so we play more than once a week. To be clear, the Android version of this game (and all of the Storm8 library that's not mindnumb time-wasters like bingo and match-theee) does not deserve five stars. But if you're reading this review, you probably don't have to worry about that.
Well,The Game Is Very Fun,Funny,and cute!But Maybe You Could Make The gems Easier To Get.
This game is adorable and fun. We love checking on it for a minute or ten! Hopefully there will be more events soon and this isn't another forgotten game! We think you should add a city editor where you can move around all the building easier without disrupting your city. Gotta check on our boardwalk orders! Thanks(:.
The city grows so fast. We love it.
Loving this new addictive game. Been playing for four hours now.
This game keeps us awake throughout the day it is very enjoyable to play.
We love this game, but we are concerned because we have not seen a seasonal event in a long time. Maybe last Halloween? No winter holiday event, and now no Valentine's Day…have you stopped updating the app.
We can play anytime we want for as long as we want without penalty. We do get a little frustrated with the inventory counting things necessary to expand as well as creation times and the conviction of items to create a specific item, but overall we just LOVE IT! We love it so much we got our mom hooked on it and she also plays it on her device. Great job having a game that captures players from a variety of ages. Suggestion: Allow players to have the opportunity to connect and trade with players they know. The City Exchange is nice but sometimes we want more than it is offering and willing to trade or pay for goods a friend may have.
It makes time passes so quickly what a great game.
Good game too pass the time away with.
We loved this game. Unfortunately, once we hit level 30, we had no more goals and no more new buildings, homes, or businesses. We're still playing but we don't know if we will be able to expand past this landmass. After only 30 levels! It's such a shame. We really enjoyed this game.
We got this game and we're in love with it we play it everyday but our 2 big problems with this game is one our phone keeps crashing while we play two they send us wayyyy to many notifications and also we think you should be able to rotate things even after there build but other than that this is our favorite game.
Keep us engaged and entertained.
We love this game. Tried Sims but required spending money all the time. This one keeps you involved without making buy more coins all the time. Love it. We are totally addicted.
Great fun & very addicting, but… There are definitely some improvements that need to be made. We really need to be allowed at least 2 Tradecraft and 2 Kitchenware factories. And some of the crafting times are unreasonably long. The Apple challenge was fun :) we loved the prizes and had no trouble completing the orders in the time allotted. Graphics are good and there are lots of choices for different businesses and homes to build. It would be good to have a more even distribution of "special items" used for expanding, enlarging storage, and adding slots. For example, our storage tends to fill with dozens of sledgehammers, but we get very few saws. Maybe these could be stored separately? And if we had a more predictable way of earning specific items, it would be much easier to work on one thing at a time. Overall it's a very fun game. We love it.
It is a great way to get a rush.
Great game. We've been waiting awhile for you guys to make another city building game.
We're at level 30 love it only suggestion is to get pieces you need to expand and fix properties faster and also to upgrade storage Small glitch it tells us each time we're not connected to internet when we are have to click to retry each time but we really do love the game or we wouldnt be at level 30.
Game crashed over 200 times in less than 30 days.
We value being in the know when we purchase property on the game & it's fun to hear what our citizens are saying about the city and us.
This is a very addicting game. We enjoy playing it. Wish it would give you even amounts of expansion pieces more often. It's been messing up lately but still good.
One of the best games we've played all year, we know we log on at least 5 or 6 times a day.
Great app easy to have fun absolutely free.
Slow at first it's great fun now. The business and home high rises are perfect when you need room but don't have what you need to expand. The ability to earn gems faster would make it so much better.
Great graphics! Always something new.
Love this game ! We know it is about the company making money but we wish you could expand for a little less coins and have more storage ,? It costs too much !! We play a lot of games and it adds up , they need to have bonuses when you spend so much !!! Also this game had problems after the update and was down off and on for 3 days , we had spent money trying to finish the Halloween challenges but we missed them and was offered no compensation , no extra time , nothing , not even an apology , no customer service and that stinks . You need to appreciate the customers paying your paychecks.
We're finding this game quite fun to play, but like other Storm 8 games the use of gems is ridiculous and trying to get them through play is almost impossible! We think the cost of buying gems way to expensive and no value for the money.
We love the game but if you're not going to expand please let us know. We are out of room to put businesses so we can't level up. Thank you. Now we have land to put the businesses on but it sure would be nice if we had some new places to build. Love the game.
Love the graphics and the game. However, long wait time to expand or collect the parts that is necessary.
Gems are too hard to get otherwise you have to pay for them.. And the storage runs out of space entirely TOO FAST if these didnt occur it would be an awesome game.
We cant connect to Facebook. Says Oops, we couldnt connect to Facebook. Please Check your internet connection and try again. But Im online playing the game. And this is the only app giving us this issue.
This is one of the best games we played.
We love this game!! It is so addicting to us but when we dont have any space for anymore buildings we need to expand the land. But we always have trouble with the saws. What we are most worried about is us getting all the five stars from some businesses and we will have to wait for 3 saws. Overall we really like this game.
We like playing games about villages . We would like for there to be a new event.
You need to buy gems if you want to upgrade which isnt really fair for people that just want a free game to play.
Why is it that the last four times that we've tried to make a purchase, nothing went through even though it says your all set? We love the game but am finding this problem frustrating. Please help.
Just started playing but we love that there is no long time limits on building and leveling up is also easy did not 5stars yet because not sure how long this will last.
We really like this game. It's fun to play. However, it does take a long time to expand and get the items needed to fix up the "special " buildings like the lighthouse. We've been playing this for a long time and would recommend it to anyone.
Fun game with decent goals and a good time pass.
We were crushed when this app did not transfer to our new phone. So here we are rebuilding our Dream City. We're making lemonade and using our experience from the first time around to return to Level 22.
We love building cities this game is great.
