I opened the iOS app switcher and force-closed the city builder by swiping it away. When I reopened it and pressed the button to enter the city, my entire city was gone. I had already built a large amount of the city, including utilities, roads, 11 traffic lights, ponds, and other infrastructure. Please investigate whether the freeze/force-close can cause a save to be lost or reset. ### 4/5 — Buggy *2026-06-26, version 1.085* This game is amazing but very buggy. If it got cleaned up a bit it be perfect! ### 3/5 — Fun at first *2026-06-04, version 1.085* This game is cheap and fun but every city is the same quests and buildomgs and challemges. It gets boring. Also when does this game end? I switched to see what Survival level was like and when i went back to regular mode, ALL my regular cities were gone. No way to get them back. ### 3/5 — U-Haul truck *2026-05-15, version 1.085* The U-Haul trucks get stuck side ways and clog up traffic and there isn’t a way to fix it. ### 4/5 — Great app *2026-04-04, version 1.085* Great app I just wish there were more buildings and things to do ### 5/5 — Been playing for years *2026-03-20, version 1.085* This game addiction comes in waves. I’ve been playing for 5 years. It’d be cool to get updated buildings, but it’s still fun anyway ### 5/5 — Idea for devs *2026-03-12, version 1.085* Love this game... Make a medival version :') a kingdom instead of a mentropolis ### 4/5 — Make this as your now game! *2026-03-05, version 1.085* Make pocket city 3 *and make it a bit more realistic than the second one if you please* ### 3/5 — Review *2026-02-28, version 1.085* I should be able to see how much water and electricity I have and need instead of only seeing when I don’t have enough. Terrain height should be an option. Assets should have more exterior style options. Properties like arcade and Hardware store etc should absolutely have interiors Should have more late game progression. ### 5/5 — ADD MORE BUILDINGS *2026-02-15, version 1.085* ADD MORE BUILDINGS ### 5/5 — Love the Game but should add more to it *2026-02-14, version 1.085* Should add two lane roads as well as Transmission Towers and make the water tower say our city name on it ### 5/5 — Deserves more attention *2026-02-13, version 1.085* Runs really well. Is really fun. Only bug I’ve encountered is when entering the parliament building the game bricks to a black screen and the sound of a meatgrinder plays. If this isn’t a bug but just social commentary I really like it. ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-02-12, version 1.085* I love the game good city builder don’t hate it I love it a lot zombie disaster should be added soon! Love the game rating: 100/100 ### 5/5 — How could anyone rate this game under 5 stars. *2026-02-01, version 1.085* This game gives you everything in a sim city style builder without in game purchases. Every other game fleeces you a dollar at a time and we sit there and just take it. Most kids so their parents take it. ### 5/5 — Five star *2026-01-22, version 1.085* Love it⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Finally!! *2026-01-19, version 1.085* This is a lightweight city simulator that combines the best parts of all my favorite older sims without ever getting too heavy. You can pick it up in minutes and make it as complex or as simple as you want it to be. Best of all, no ads or subscriptions! I did encounter one weird issue on my iPad Pro M4: when starting a new game (including the tutorial), time seems to stop around the second day. I have to exit, relaunch, and then continue, and never have any more problems. ### 2/5 — ゲームとして陳腐 *2026-01-05* 一回更地にして色々やるとか、広告塔乱立とか、Lvと金をチート的に増やす手法がゲーム内にいくらでもある、つまりは自主的に縛りプレイをするような自制心が無いならこの手のゲームを"よく出来る"人は「なんだこのお粗末な作品」とはなるはず。 このゲームには苦労がない、からつまらない。 ウンタラタイクーン系と大差ない。 買い切り=しっかり作ってる、という幻想に騙された。 このアプリが高評価になるならもうレビューにゲームとしての価値を測る機能は無い。 ### 5/5 — a lot of love went into this *2026-01-01, version 1.085* what a cool game, i’m not normally into city builders but this really is a gem ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sad to see its gone the subscription route *2026-07-09, version 1.085* The title says it all ### 1/5 — You’re being very mean *2026-05-02, version 1.085* It’s poo ### 1/5 — Waste of money. *2025-12-10, version 1.085* You can’t do anything. What a waste of money Worst game. All those reviews are fake ### 1/5 — Good app *2025-11-05, version 1.085* it needs a little bit more updating like you had a prison ### 1/5 — Worst ever *2025-09-20, version 1.085* Worst game ever don’t buy cause it’s 5 dollers ### 1/5 — Dommage vraiment ! *2025-09-13* C’est dommage le jeux avait beaucoup de potentiel il manque une possibilité de faire du multijoueur de pouvoir aller voir le monde de ses amis ou commercer avec ses amis des ressources ou sa production d’électricité ou d’autres choses j’ai remarqué que tout tourne sur le téléphone ce qui rend le jeux super laggy au bout d’un moment j’ai remarqué un exploit avec les gares de fret j’en ai fait pleins car on peut en faire indéfiniment ce qui m’a permis avec une grosse production de bois transformé en produits de consommation faire 28M par jour dans le jeux j’ai atteint 1,7Millards en 6h de jeux je pense que ce n’est pas normal et ça rend le jeux trop simple et sans réel intérêt c’est dommage il faudrait augmenter la difficulté du jeux ça serait sympas et puis autre bug mais ce n’en ai pas un mais en soit si on a argent infini on a juste a construire des bâtiments cher et les détruire pour se faire énormément d’xp donc bon pareil le jeux m’a couté 6€ pour que je n’y joue qu’un jour je suis plutôt déçu si jamais vous faites des changements par rapport à mes remarques j’augmenterais la note ### 1/5 — Region kann im Multiplayer nicht geladen werden *2025-04-06, version 1.085* Bei dem Host ist es möglich das er im Multiplayer eine Region lädt. Wenn man sich als Gast einloggen will, lädt die Map nicht. (Verschiedene Netzwerke haben keine Veränderung mit sich gebracht).. Die Hauptstadt/Hauptregion funktioniert jedoch auf beiden Geräten super. Bitte behebt das. ### 1/5 — Why just why does this game exist *2024-12-28, version 1.070* Why does this game has this :1 so many demands for industrial ### 1/5 — Verschlimmbesserung *2024-11-04, version 1.070* Habe den ersten Teil gerne gespielt und hatte mich sehr auf den zweiten Teil gefreut. Leider missfällt mir das freie Erkunden und das daran sogar Aufgaben geknüpft sind dermaßen, dass mir schnell die Lust vergeht. ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-07-11, version 1.070* Absolute SCAM! Dont waste your money! Identical to pocket city original game. Tried to get refunded and was refused despite the fact this “new” version is meant to be better it is essentially identical to v1. Wish id never wasted my money. Wouldn’t suprise me if the devs delete this comment to rob more people of their money for a re release of v1. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Deserves more reviews *2026-08-04, version 1.085* I was looking for a town building game that wasn’t freemium and packed with ads. This game is jam packed and far exceeded my expectations. I haven’t even created the surface and already feel like I’ve got my moneys worth. The ability to go on the ground and explore the city, enter buildings, do street races, etc. is a crazy bonus for a top down strategy game. It’s also got some humour to it. Like how David is a psychopath who asks you to start disasters in your town. After watching you trigger a volcano that kills 400 residents and destroys half the city while you paraglide around the town watching, he says ‘you’ve got my vote!’ The game also runs very smoothly, looks pretty good and all the animations are smooth. ### 5/5 — ACTUAL A GOOD GAME *2026-07-16, version 1.085* Hello devs I downloaded Pocket City 2 as it looked cool and IT IS SO IT!!!!!! It might not be high quality but YOU CAN GO IN BULIDNGS?! Most city apps like simcity or TheoTown DONT even do this And you can actually drive cars ?! That is just the best no wonders it has events disasters and NO ADDS!!!!! Devs are really good on thing add a landmarks around the world please and The devs are really good honestly SimCity and TheoTown should do this By and from UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧R🇬🇧IT HAS CONCERTS AND YEAH! ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-06-07, version 1.085* Obviously not City Skylines or nothing but this game is so fun when you’re bored! I wish there were more things to place in the city and maybe more customization (ploppable zone building) Also, would love a sequel where maybe roads can curve. Overall, best city builder available on mobile, I love having multiple cities in one region ### 5/5 — Phenomenal💕 *2026-06-05, version 1.085* I get so caught up in this game. Hours and hours fly by and I have to make the choice of sleep or to keep playing. It’s so calm. There’s so much to do. Came from sims buildit and I’m so so happy I switched to this game instead. ### 5/5 — Every cent worth it *2026-05-31, version 1.085* Now this is just the most addicting game I ever played you could literally do anything in this game. You could literally make your own city in your pocket. You could fly drive around your city dress up yourself how you want to build lots of cool buildings and make your city the most popular and best.! I’ve been playing this game for literally years and it’s never got boring. You could literally make you say successful or just a city that. You should not go to. And the best part. About this game.? you could steal your citizens cars and they don’t even care just like GTA V! If you find five dollars while you’re walking on a bright morning, I should recommend spend it on this game. ### 5/5 — UPDATE *2026-05-23* game is good but need some good updates for example big land for large cities more better UI and all plzz developers bring this update it will this game more fun to play and love the game 🥰 ### 5/5 — Cool *2026-05-17, version 1.085* It is so cool but can you make it so that you can upgrade buildings more than once and can get taller it would be cool ### 5/5 — Indie devs- 1…. EA studios- 0 *2026-04-20, version 1.085* Absolutely blows SimCity build it out of the water and gives other city builders a run for their money. After playing build it and realizing that the actual city building aspect is seemingly secondary to everything else… I gave this one a shot THIS is how you do a city builder lol Freeroam your city, customize your mayor, set and balance taxes, trigger events like farmers markets in the streets, concerts, house parties (oh yeah… you can enter the buildings too… they aren’t very unique interior wise from each other but it a fun detail) it really makes you feel like the mayor and not just some omnipresent eye just raising an empty city. ### 5/5 — Fantastisch ! *2026-04-18* Ein mega Spiel, macht unglaublich Spaß! Läuft butterweich, sieht toll aus und durch die eigene Stadt zu schlendern… toll! Ohne Stress bauen tüfteln… einfach perfekt. So muss ein gutes Handygame funktionieren, welches ein Dauerbrennerplatz auf dem Handy verdient hat. Herausragend und uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert! Must have für Städtebauer… ihr werdet es nicht mehr hergeben ☺️ Sehr angenehm zum Spielen 👍 ### 5/5 — Great game, but a few bugs *2026-04-05, version 1.085* The game is great! Perfect sequel but the game has a few bugs like how every once in a while the High-rail stops at a random station and does not start, sometimes it will just skip the station. But overall great game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
