### 3/5 — Bullies

*2026-08-18, version 2.10*

Been playing around 9 months. A few crews are just rogues and terrorise most players it’s impossible to progress in the game. Constant attacks outside of pfo events. Getting hit on tiles and generally horrible actions just because they are bigger players from paying into the game. They think they can just be relentlessly cruel. Emailed a number of times to ata but ignored. I’m gunna stop playing if it continues I just moved to new world let’s see how it is here

### 2/5 — Game performance and issues

*2026-04-10, version 2.04*

This game is fine but support team were not efficient with their job. They cant help you with their in-game issue to resolve, they just want you to spend money in the game. Rewards were not enough for you to grow in this game.

### 4/5 — Log Out!

*2026-03-29, version 2.03*

For a game that almost encourages having alternate accounts that are easy to make and heavily benefit your main, it would make sense that the game have something as a simple and obvious as a LOG OUT function! Instead, in order to log out on a device, you HAVE to reset your password. Once that’s reset, the game will automatically log that account out of all devices. It’s so stupid. Give us a simple LOG OUT fiction!

### 2/5 — 🙃

*2025-12-08*

Very addictive game but as you level up it gets harder and takes 2-10 days to upgrade

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! Is there any way we can turn this into a 5-star rating? Please send us a feedback message in-game with your feedback. We'd appreciate it, cheers!

### 2/5 — Scammers dream/made my phone freeze

*2025-12-03, version 2.01*

After having this game for less than a day I was messaged  by a person wanting to connect off the app (first message they sent was asking for Snapchat) I’m an adult so I just block them. But who knows how many vulnerable people do give their information away. Secondly I was contacted by another person asking for money so they don’t have to “sell themselves to take care of their kid” along with that my phone froze twice while playing this game. I had to manually shut it down. After the second time I deleted the game and it hasn’t happened since. There’s something off about this game and the software. Which sucks because I did really enjoy playing and the concept of the game but I felt like I was going to be scammed somehow or break my phone if I kept playing.

### 3/5 — Good game. Weird people.

*2025-10-29, version 1.99*

Everyone on this game friends you to ask your age, where you’re from, and then FLIRT. I know it’s called single city, but this is not the place to pick up a irl single. I’m just trying to play the game 😂

### 4/5 — Русский язык.

Ожидается ли русский язык или можно удалить игру?

### 2/5 — boring

*2025-07-31*

i played for two days and barely got anywhere. feels like a chore to level up with barely any rewards, no customisation of character or a shop that doesn’t require you pay money. the rewards you get are in currencies you don’t even know where to spend so it’s useless. there’s no reason i would choose this game over any other simulation out there, it’s drained the life out of me tbh.

**Developer response:** Hi there, we understand how frustrating this must have been, and we’re here to help. Please reach out via Help message in-game so we can investigate further and work toward a solution.

### 4/5 — It’s not a bad game

*2025-07-29, version 1.93*

*2025-06-27, version 1.92*

### 1/5 — Disappointing & Emotionally Unsafe

*2025-06-03, version 1.90*

Single City has potential, but the toxic social culture ruins the experience. Boundaries aren’t respected, harassment is often ignored, and the game lacks proper moderation. Everyone deserves a gaming space that feels safe, fair, and full of possibility—this game falls short. Until the developers address the emotional safety of players, I can’t recommend it.

### 2/5 — Langue

*2025-05-26, version 1.88*

J’ai télécharger ce jeu car dans la description il est indiqué « français » ce n’est pas vrai du tout … je suis assez déçu je désinstalle le jeu

### 1/5 — Recycled PIMD Content

*2026-05-08, version 2.04*

They are so lazy with this game. All of the avatars you can use/unlock on here are just copy paste from their other game Party In My Dorm.

### 1/5 — Could be Great, but the bullying is worse on this game than anywhere else! Very toxic environment

*2026-02-09, version 2.02*

The game idea is really good, the game play is ok. The developers are very money hungry, you get very little reward without spending money, and even when you spend money, you will need to spend hundreds to even make any impact on the strength of your account. The events and leaderboards are repetitive, there’s no good balance of power in game, there is like 5 different “cities” (servers) in game and because of how bad they are at managing power balance and bullying you see over 1000+ in one server and 200 in the next! It’s ridiculous. There is no peaceful server to be in, if you complain about bullying they do nothing about it, people have been very harmful to others, such as sharing photos and personal details of others without permission and they will silence the person for a little while but will not ban them. They enjoy taking all of your money but will not look after you or show you are valued as a customer/player, the game could be great but the developers and customer support lets this game down massively…

### 1/5 — Coloca em português

*2025-11-18*

### 1/5 — Glitch prevents progress

*2025-10-23, version 1.99*

### 1/5 — Pas de français !

*2025-08-25*

Information : Langues : Français, Anglais, Japonais .
Et dans le jeu uniquement en anglais 😒

**Developer response:** Hi there! We appreciate your thoughts! Our team reviews all player feedback as we plan future updates. Keep an eye out — we hope to have good surprises in store for you!

### 1/5 — Boring and disgraceful developer DOES NOT CARE

*2025-06-30, version 1.92*

This app is boring now since it’s about how much people spending soo much money so they won’t kick them or touch those accounts of all crews  associated with 69 and those are the ones steady raiding ppl houses you can’t gather cause you’re always being hit off can’t go idle or nothing might as well let them have the game if that’s the case

### 1/5 — laggy

*2025-06-30, version 1.92*

had a potential for me but man it lags so much, i uninstalled it 5mins after.

### 1/5 — boring

*2025-06-16, version 1.91*

the ads look promosing but the game just bad

### 1/5 — Uneven playing field and a lot of bullying

*2025-06-16, version 1.91*

Don’t even bother starting this game. You will never be able to outspend the 69 crew who bully everyone on all servers. No matter how much money you spend you won’t be able to grow your roomies because you will be bullied out of everything you try to gather. You can write as many complaints as you want, but the developers don’t care. They only care about how much money they can egg you to spend to buy the resources your roomies get bullied out of. The game used to be fun, but until the developers spend time figuring out how to make the game an even playing field for lower/new players you shouldn’t even bother attempting to play. 69 players must be low lifes in real life because it shows on the game.

### 1/5 — Idioma

*2025-06-05, version 1.90*

Debería tener una opción para cambiar el idioma del juego

### 5/5 — Классная игра!

*2026-05-03*

Красивые варианты  мебелировки во время ивэнтов, для меня эта игра как антистресс… Приятный способ подучить Английский) кроме того есть возможность живого общения на английском с людьми со всего мира.

**Developer response:** Привет! Мы очень рады, что вам нравится! Не забудьте ознакомиться с нашими последними событиями и обновлениями — всегда есть что-то новое, что можно открыть для себя. Спасибо за игру!

### 5/5 — Нужен русский язык!

### 5/5 — Game

*2025-09-02, version 1.94*

Love it

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-03-28, version 1.88*

I never played a game like this. I enjoy it. No ads really, unless you choose to increase something, but it doesn’t really teach you the different functions at all. You can check online for more details, on how to really play, BUT even they don’t really know. You kinda learn as you go, which is crazy. You kinda just PLAY but you don’t really know what’s going on

### 5/5 — ngelagg sedikit

*2025-03-10, version 1.87*

ngelagg sedikit tp aman sihh ga yg lemoot bgt
seringnya itu mahh lancaar , kadang doang ngelagg nya
grafik jg bagus, taskny jg banyak (aku penggemar games yg ada task gitu) manteppp👍🏻👍🏻

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-01-07, version 1.86*

Great way to relax. And just have a chill day. I just started playing and I’m in love already.

### 5/5 — More animations

*2024-09-27*

I love this game I’ve been playing for awhile now. I’ve heard from other players about more interactions and I have an idea, when your doing collabs or starting drama the roomies should have different animations based off their personalities. Nikki for example is stylish and sassy so when she’s starting drama/collab she should have a separate animation. I think it’ll bring out differences in each roomie and make players interact better.

### 5/5 — Amazing
