Fun game but no updates and glitches not fixed
I’ve been playing for a few months. I’ve paid out $60 due to slow getting coins to build up on my house and unlock the other side of the town etc. When your mayor retires, there is a 2 day glitch of no new tasks, cave doesn’t get new items and neither does the general store. The story line drags out as to where the mayor went and the function of the stone hedge. No new clues for quite awhile. I contacted tech support and they admitted there was no fixes that could be done and will be no updates. I’m on 4th mayor now and 3 days of glitches afterward of no cave treasures, general store items don’t change, no tasks, etc. The designer abandoned the game fixes so you have to tolerate it all. The city hall items never seem to change so you are limited items to make your town nice.Arizona gamer
I Love The Virtual Family/Villagers Games, BUT TOWN…
So I’ve been playing virtual villagers and families for years on and off. I believe the first game I ever downloaded was one of those. Fast forward to 2023, I’ve had town downloaded for years but never got to playing it until now. Well, sadly I don’t e how I can play. The game is very finicky and the character I adopted moves really slow. It just took me 5 minutes to walk from the center of town to the green lawn on the left side of it. This isn’t the quality I’m use to from this developer. All the other virtual games they’ve made work just fine. I don’t understand how in 23’ this game isn’t playable? 🤦🏼♀️ I will try it again though. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, although I’m not sure how. I double tap a spot to have my character run to but she moves so slow and the app is just finicky. If I click on details of something it takes the pop up screen with those details quite a bit to actually show up. Idk it’s shaky and just doesn’t run right. It’s not like the others. I wish it were. I was looking forward to this one, but I guess I’ll just go replay the others if this one won’t work. If it does turn out that it’s me doing something wrong I will gladly update this review. It doesn’t appear that there’s been many recent reviews either and unless I’m seeing it wrong there’s been no updates for this game in 7 years either which is really a bummer. Such a shame. I’m hoping maybe that will change but after 7 years idk 🤷🏼♀️jessica1313
⚠️game is broke⚠️
So far the game was doing good. But after playing for almost about a week, the system just stopped working. Usually the next day you get new citizen tasks and clean up the town and I had my citizens working on the beach and it only had one day left. But after i believe the 7th or 6th day of playing, the new day still hasn’t started and i’m still stuck on the same day. My citizens are still working on the beach, the stores haven’t reset, the only change is that the grass grows rapidly. And I’m infuriated because i spent some money on here which I’m hoping that i can get refunded by apple, and they’re not the most trustworthy when it comes to getting your money back. Honestly this game had so much potential yet i guess the creators abandoned it. I don’t understand why you don’t just take it off the App store instead of wasting people’s time and money. Do not download this game for it doesn’t work.DeezN^ts

Description of Virtual Town
***NOTE: Some older devices will not be able to play Virtual Town well right now. That includes: iPhone 4s, iPad 2, 1st-gen iPad Minis, and iPod Touch 4th and 5th generation. The game is very pretty and uses more graphics power than our previous games. We have optimized the game to help with performance, but you may still experience issues on these older devices. :) ***
Come, move in to Virtual Town! Become the new Mayor and help restore the town to its past glory!
A note from the developer:
Hi! Thanks for looking at Virtual Town! If you are looking for the features and "bullet points," just scroll down below this little note.
It's been more than a couple of years since we have launched a new game, here at Last Day of Work! Well, this is it, the new one. Yes, of course it is a real-time simulation, but this one is a little different. More than ever before, we feel like we have created a world.
The world lives and breathes in your device. Moon phases change as days go by (just like in your real world!). When the sun sets where you are, it's turning into night in Virtual Town. More than ever, we feel like the world lives and breathes. Watch seasons change. Watch relationships change. Watch your mayor's adopted little boy or girl grow, and learn how to manage the town.
We hope the world we have created immerses you as much as it does us. Something to know, though: just like a real world, this one will be changing and growing. The truth is, we are a small team and putting everything that we want into these games is not always possible. We hope to continue working on Virtual Town and making it deeper, richer, more real, and more full of secrets, as the months go on.
In the meantime, join us! You are right on time! Help us explore Virtual Town and come with us as we see where it takes us. And where did that previous mayor go, anyway?
With excitement and gratitude,
Arthur Humphrey
Lead Designer, Last Day of Work
Virtual Town is a little abandoned town right in your device! Come in and help out (they need it!).
