  • Amazing!!

    This app is amazing! I actually bought it for the Switch first and loved it so much I wanted to be able to do it without my Switch so I bought it again which I didn’t mind spending the extra money if it meant supporting the creators! I hear what people are saying with wanting to add more features like parks, etc. but I actually like how limited the features are so you have to really be creative and use your imagination.
    I do wish that there was a way to change the color of existing buildings without having to destroy a building and rebuild it.
    My only other suggestion is I think it would be cool to add a timelapse feature (like Procreate has) that records your progress as you’re building so that you can go back and watch your progress from the beginning. I think that would be a fun way to bookend the features in this fun, relaxing experience!

  • Good but could add some changes

    The game overall is great but there is a little thing that you could add to improve the game , you could add an option to add beaches ,hills , mountains and different types of buildings for example a docking yard ,parks ,shops ,restaurants and hotels. ALSO to add a little bit more life to the game you could add like boats around the map , people walking around, first person mode to have a different perspective in on the game overall.

  • Brilliant

    I’ve had it for 3 days and cannot stop going on it! It is so immersive yet so simple, so calming and so Immersive. It is incredible there are only 2 options, either place the pavement or place a house but somehow it leads to so many other options, it’s incredible!

    I think the game could be better by being able to walk around your village and seeing what it looks like from a human perspective.

    Additionally, adding in more colours and more options for placement.

  • A “game” that is it’s own reward

    If you want to be challenged look elsewhere. If you want to be absorbed to the point where your worries can, possibly, be forgotten for a while, then this is an app for you. The function of this app is so beautifully realised, that you can easily “lose” an hour and not have thought of anything, other than where the next block goes. If you allow it to, it can be very relaxing.

    Like many others, I do have a wish-list of things that I’d like to see as the app (hopefully) is developed: nothing too extreme, as that would remove the simplicity and, therefore, the relaxed nature that it currently exudes.

    Slopes:
    One niggle I have is that the villages, towns or cities that I have built don’t look real, because you can’t create slopes. Without slopes, the only way people could move around would be to go inside a building, climb the stairs (or use a lift) to get to another level of houses. If you could drag a road/pathway/terrace toward another level, so that it created a slope, then the scene would look more realistic. And the people (both imagined and real! 😁) would be ever so pleased.

    Terrain:
    It would be nice, as others have mentioned, if we could have terrain. Maybe we could drag the land up/down, at the start of a build and, as soon a the first block is placed, the land is “fixed”, so that any more dragging is for slopes.

  • I wish there were more games like this!

    I found this game by random and I bought it and fell in love with this game. It is a amazing game to play offline when you are bored or feel creative. I really hope the devs keep updating because there is so much potential in this game.
  • LOVE IT but… stuck in 30fps…

    Even with the option in setting set to off, the game never goes above 30fps… OTHERWISE… amazing game/toy/toolbox/sandbox… such an incredibly smart idea! So satisfying!
  • Really great I want more!

    I love this game I have it on my Switch, iPad and phone. I enjoy figuring out the ways to get stairs in certain areas depending on how I place the buildings. The only negative I would have to say would be I wish I could expand the world and just keep building. The graphics are lovely and calm. I love adjusting the light and seeing how it changes the way the town looks. I especially love when all the windows light up at night.

  • Maybe the best $5 I’ve ever spent

    I’ve been looking for a game like this since Anno for iOS went away. I was worried about buying it without a trial as I’ve tried a few others and didn’t like any of them. This is just what I needed. While this is beautiful in its simplicity and ease of use, I hope there are future expansions.
  • Favourite 'game'

    This is my far my favourite iOS release. Very much hoping you're still supporting/developing the app! Would love to see other Architectural features added in the future! 😍
  • Amazing

    Beautifully designed and really relaxing. The animations and sounds are excellent and the UI is intuitive. It would be awesome to have a feature that allows you to toggle the birds; the way they sit in a cluster is a bit freaky if you’re trypophobic. Other than that, I have zero complaints and I love this game. It’s an amazing stress reliever. Thank you!
