*2026-08-27, version 6.3.1*

Paid city ruined by cheater, no kick button. I spent real money to buy a private city. I shared my access code in a chat group. Immediately after, a cheater named "NeoFranki" intercepted the code and joined my server. He is exploiting the game. Without generating city income, he instantly bought 18 blocks. He is ruining the economy. As the owner, I have NO function to KICK or BAN him. There is not even an option to reset the access code to stop him from re-entering. Developer email support ignores my complaints. Manually ban this cheater and wipe his blocks from my city, or I demand a full refund! My City ID: 1MXRNYEX

### 5/5 — Relaxing game

*2026-08-12*

Exactly what I would expect from a relaxing city builder. Great mechanics

### 5/5 — My experience playing

*2026-08-11, version 6.3*

A really fun game to play with friends and make news great game has its quirks but the developers are amazing and on top of things really appreciate playing a game that has good upgrade and enticing to people who enjoy building games!

### 4/5 — Creative but slow

*2026-08-11, version 6.3*

This is only my second day playing the game. August 11 2026. As a new player I will tell you don't be in a hurry. Gaining material is not really overly complicated but having the money for your building is the biggest challenge. So far the players have been very helpful in the chat area once I found it lol. So if you like a slow moving city building game with a challenge for strategy this is a good game.

### 3/5 — Slow and boring

*2026-08-11, version 6.3*

Slow and boring but ok I guess. Just super slow to get started. And everything takes loooong to finish building.

### 5/5 — Nice game

*2026-07-31, version 6.2*

It’s a great game for those who don’t want to be trapped in a time consuming game and like a little game time every once in a while. Really like the city I was placed in. Great game. No ads.

### 3/5 — Cool

*2026-07-30*

Ich mag das spiel so für zwischendurch

### 3/5 — Ok game

*2026-07-27, version 6.2*

It’s fun but expansion is too expensive

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-07-23, version 6.2*

Basic, easy to understand. It’s fun to have a “community” in the game, such as electing a mayor, town/city projects that can contributed to, etc.

### 1/5 — Auto-kick doesn’t work. Developer ignores messages

*2026-07-15, version 6.2*

My city has 38/40 allowed players. Only 10 people are active. Active players want to expand and benefit from utilizing nearby blocks, but they can’t because those blocks are locked down by inactive players. 

Some players have not opened the game for several months and the “auto-kick” feature is FAR past the countdown timer. 

The “auto-kick” feature was rolled out four years ago. Players have been complaining about it not working since DAY 1. This issue has been regularly mentioned on the Discord server and the developer never responds to anyone. 

Apple’s policy states developers have 90 days to fix bugs or be removed from the App Store. Get on it…
