  • Surprising Depth, Complexity

    This is probably the most complex Kairosoft title released on iPhone yet -- not in that it's difficult to play, but rather in that there are more layers of things going on at once, and it's more difficult to unlock all the special characters and other goodies.

    On the surface, the gameplay appears to be similar to the recently-released Oedo Town, but Venture Town requires more finesse and therefore would seem to also have more retail value.

    In an environment packed with freemium games that make players wait for energy to refill or constantly pester them to make in-game purchases with real cash, Kairosoft titles are a welcome change -- pay your coins up front and play offline by yourself for as long as you want. I applaud them.

  • good game

    good game. there's a glitch causing everything to cost 5000 more than the actual listed price. it's a bit more annoying than oh! edo towns because the buildings in a combo has to be right next to each other and the range of combo is really small

    otherwise a good, enjoyable game. i'm hoping for a fix for at least the price issue

  • Another reason why I love Kairosoft!

    This is an awesome game! One of the reasons why I love this game and all of the other Kairosoft games is that it's compatible with my second gen iPod touch. A lot of game developers don't make games compatible with the second gen iPod, but Kairosoft does.
  • A*

    Another great Kairosoft game! Stick with it... I thought I was going to get bored but once you start unlocking things it's great! :)
  • Awesome

    1. Way better than Oh Edo Towns
    2. It's by Kairosoft so it has to be awesome
    3. Buy this now
  • So addicting!

    I love Kairosoft's games, and this one is definitely one of the best ones yet. However, I would love to see some improvements like bridges, being able to move buildings, edit the terrain (add/remove water and mountains etc.), and some way to give people more incentive to move into your town. I find it's pretty slow getting new citizens, and it hinders your cities growth speed.

  • Keep them coming!!! 😁

    I love it!!! It's soo addicting and can't put it down. I own all the games that kairosoft has made and I have never been disappointed.
    Keep making them and I'll keep buying them😜
  • Fun title

    I think people who are saying it's identical to Edo Towns may not have played it very much. The concept behind the two is very similar, but it's not merely the different theme that sets them apart. It may be fitting to see it as a sequel to Edo, set in modern times, but with many new features.

    Fun things to look forward to:
    - Pets! Townsfolk with high appeal can buy pets at the pet store. Different pets will give their owners bonus stats, and encourage them to spend time at the park.
    - Development events. Spend research points to hold events in your town, giving temporary bonuses, such as increase to movement range.
    - Many different careers! Townsfolk discover new careers based on business near their office. Once a career is discovered, anyone in your town can try for it, provided you'll sponsor the attempt.

    I haven't been playing it terribly long, and while I see the similarity in style to Edo Towns, I was very quickly drawn in by the new things that make it all the more fun!

  • Disappointed

    I love Edo towns so I thought this would be an upgrade, but I'm sorry to say that this game feels pointless and boring. In today's world, the idea of a game whose goal is to send people on shopping sprees just seems pointless and delusional. I fail to see where there is strategy. For a city sim it would be cool to have to deal with issues like power and cell service, not shopping sprees. Buy Edo towns instead or if you already have it then save your 3 dollars and go on your own shopping spree with it.
