### 1/5 — El mejor juego del mundo

*2026-04-28, version 1.0.66*

Es el mejor juego del mundo muy entretenido

### 1/5 — Why ads?

*2026-04-18, version 1.0.66*

The game is actually really fun. The only reason I hate it is the forced ad money model. After almost every task completion, an ad pops up. Annoying as hell.

### 1/5 — Tapped to play and an ad immediately

*2025-11-17, version 1.0.66*

I don’t like forced ads in general - but the immediate ad made me delete the game. Played on itch first and was willing to pay a small sum for the game if needed but  the ad right away was just too poor taste for me.

### 1/5 — ads in free version of the game

*2025-06-03, version 1.0.63*

itch.io or other browser version of it dont have ad but this one have

### 1/5 — Worst game

*2025-02-19, version 1.0.63*

Trash ah game let me get some skyscrapers

### 1/5 — Very fun!

*2023-06-03, version 1.0.53*

Its as good as deep rock galactic

### 1/5 — Bugged

*2022-05-02, version 1.0.34.1*

Great game remember it on the computer sadly it’s switch over to iOS is completely buggered all it had is a black screen with music

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2022-04-29, version 1.0.34.1*

I don’t mind ads in free games. I get that it’s a way to support the dev and continue to make fun games, but I will not play a game that forces me to watch an ad after just playing. If I’m allowed to double rewards or get something extra for it, I can choose that, but do not force me to watch an ad.

### 2/5 — Interstitial ads

*2022-05-07, version 1.0.37*

Has ads while playing, no option to avoid them.

### 3/5 — Music and sound

*2024-03-24, version 1.0.55*

The music and sound doesn’t work in the game please fix it

*2026-07-12, version 1.0.66*

Good
Good

### 5/5 — Love it, wish there was more content

*2026-07-02, version 1.0.66*

Relaxing city builder / management game with cute graphics and a great sense of humor. Best use of a few bucks to kill time on commutes or on the couch. Only complaint is I wish there were more missions and maybe some more unique buildings/scenario conditions to make each map feel different from the others. That said, I’ve got a few dozen hours out of this you should too!

### 5/5 — a

*2026-06-26, version 1.0.66*

Pretty wicked game,but I wish there is more content to this potential of a game there should be a mode of colonizing other islands or even a option to

### 5/5 — One minor issue on my side

*2026-05-28, version 1.0.66*

At the exact time of downloading I wanted to go straight to buying premium but the store’s down for me on my phone, if there’s anything that might be or if it’s an error, please let me know.

### 5/5 — Literally the best

*2026-05-24, version 1.0.66*

This game is like a space of comfort for me, it’s brought me so much peace

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-05-12, version 1.0.66*

I used to love playing this on cool math games when I was younger. It’s still a really fun game with a lot more creative content now

### 5/5 — Interessant…

*2026-04-25, version 1.0.66*

… gefällt mir richtig gut! Macht Spaß zu bauen und dem wusseligen Treiben zu zusehen 😅 Tolles Game um sich die Zeit zu vertreiben. Kann ewig auf dem Handy bleiben… eigenes Spieltempo… kein nerviger Zeit/Eventdruck.. und sehr charmante Stimmung /Musik im Game… ich mochte das Spiel schon nach einer halben Stunde Spielzeit 👍Endlos Game… absolut zum Empfehlen… extrem hoher Wiederspielwert und Suchtgefahr.

### 5/5 — I love this game!

*2026-04-09, version 1.0.66*

I come back to this game every couple years because it resonates with me. I love the dynamic of inhabiting a space island and building cities with various components to create innovation and happiness for my citizens. I also like following individual citizens with names I like and switching to fitting jobs and the nicest homes. Great game.  10/10!

### 5/5 — Great Little Game

*2026-04-03, version 1.0.66*

Had a lot of fun going through the campaign. Some forced ads do happen but the dev was pretty generous. I hate forced ads but this is one of the rare cases where they are done fairly well. You can tell this game is not an ad simulator, with a tiny bit of gaming in between. Quite the opposite. Give it a try!

### 5/5 — Hidden Gem

*2026-03-17, version 1.0.66*

Non-intrusive ads, great textures, and infinite playability. This game never gets old, and the interface and graphics feel super clean. Most importantly, the community and developer continue to be active. Florian, you really cooked with this one. Thanks for the great game!
