Needs improvement

Great concept of a game really enjoyed it, I think it could do with an update tho! Please!

Bugs

Fun game but lots of bugs - stuck on mortgage screen won’t let clicking off after using a bridging loan, now stuck because of stress test and not allowing to click off

Good concept but bugs

It’s a good concept and could be great. But there are lots of bugs.

It asks you to renew compliance certificates a month before you need to.
When you renovate you don’t get the value uplift it says you will.
HMO tenants can ask for rent reduction but it doesn’t reduce rent no matter what you do.
If a chain breaks you can try and buy again until it works.
And loads more

Good game fun,

Fun to play, and very addictive. Can get hooked for hours.

Few minor bug gripes.
unfortunately has a bug which soft locks you if your bridging loan expires, and new loans fail the stress test, and you don’t have enough cash on had to buy the property out right, even if you have millions of property you could sell, you can’t leave the loan screen. Even by pressing x.

Unclear what the purpose of the hammer down function on auctions, just seems like you auto win the auction?

Lastly on HMO properties, you seem to be about to kick people out at will to get higher and high rents. So I’m basically kicking people out each month. There seems no down side to this.

Again. Overall great game.

Remortgage bug

If you take a bridging loan and it expires, you get taken to the remortgaging screen. If you fail the stress test and don't have an option for remortgaging you essentially get stuck. Cannot close the menu, therefore you need to start a new save..

Love it

Enjoy the fact this isn’t pay to win or hiding stuff under a paywall.

Would be good to employ maintenance managers to deal with tenant requests and maybe commercial properties in future updates.

Remortgage problem

The game is great and highly addictive, I got my self up to 5.5 million net worth but ran into an issue with a property I had taken on a bridging loan. I’m pulling 10k+ a month in and when remortgaging after the bridging loan I can’t now remortgage with any company or any repayment type. I’m stuck in the remortgage page and have no way to get out😓

Please keep working on this

Too easy after a certain point but what a fantastic game.

Glitch

When a bridging loan comes to an end it doesn't let me get a new mortgage it just gets stuck on bridge loan page

Uk property tycoon

Good game suggestion I think it would good if the player still own a lease on ikeep the lease after selling a property

New projects

Brilliant game has a lot of potential to grow and inspire me in real life to get into property. I think some things will make the game grow.
•international real estate development (New York, Los Angeles, Dubai)
•REITs
•Build new buildings such as hospitals, shopping centres and stadiums to reach 10 billion pounds.
•Government contracts
•big housing projects.

Enjoyable ‘numbers go up’ game

Really enjoyed the game so far. Just managed to hit £45k cash flow. A few thoughts:

- Young families appear to constantly decrease property condition 1% each time you advance. This seems too high
- I want to be able to select the type of tenant I want for each property
- It would be good to have different properties suited to different tenants. At the moment, there is no reason to go for lower paying tenants

Overall I am enjoying the game!

Addicting

Very addicting, difficulty can be high at the start and becomes fairly easy towards mid late game but still a blast to play

Great potential

Addictive gameplay, got several hours out of it before finishing. Punches above its weight for its current pricing of £0.99. The developer seems to have fixed all the major bugs as I didn’t encounter any that others have mentioned previously.

It has serious potential, feels like a mix of Coffee Inc 2 and bitlife while doing its own thing. I agree that in its current state, the mid/late game is far easier than the start - once the ball is rolling, you can exponentially fly through it. With a few balances and more features, I can see it going far. Keep developing it, please!

A few recommendations from my experience are: HMO’s can be tediously ‘tappy’. At one point, I was clicking to fix/buy/agree rental changes for each room of the HMO at least 10x more than anything else each month. Maybe make a hireable employee that can manage these? Also on that note, there’s currently no need for more than 1 of most of the staff. More staffing options and a reason to hire more than one would be great!

Lastly, I’ve found a significant exploit in the tenant-type bonus system: after a land development (I built an apartment block if that helps), you can evict and find a new tenant instantly. By continuously evicting and adding a new Young Professional, you can compound the 1.15x rent infinitely. I ended up with someone paying £5quintillion a month and beat the game instantly lol.

Overall, it’s a great game and well worth playing, and I really hope the dev continues adding more to it!

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the detailed review — I really appreciate you taking the time to share all of this. I’m glad you enjoyed the game and got a good few hours out of it, and it’s great to hear you didn’t run into any of the major issues others had mentioned. It’s also an honour to be mentioned alongside such well-known games — that genuinely means a lot. Your feedback on progression and balance is spot on. The mid-to-late game becoming too easy once things get going is something I’m actively working on improving. The points about HMOs being too “tappy” and staffing lacking depth are especially helpful — adding ways to streamline management (like hireable roles to handle tasks) and making staffing more meaningful are both great suggestions. Thanks as well for highlighting the tenant bonus issue — I’ll look into that and make sure it’s addressed. Really appreciate the support and thoughtful suggestions — feedback like this is incredibly valuable and will help shape future updates. Thanks again for playing!

Great game though needs some work

I’ve played this for a few hours now and it’s been great fun, building a little housing empire and developing land and properties scratches an itch in my brain that I can’t explain. This game really delivers. The UI is friendly, and there’s a lot of depth to each route that you can go down whether it’s flipping properties after doing them up, renting, HMOs, flats etc it’s all a possibility.

However, I’ve noticed there are a few bugs that can be really frustrating. For instance, the land development tab disappearing when a property is being constructed. This leads to it being stuck at a stage when you progress to the next month; this property doesn’t progress though the cash is taken, or the property can be finished though you aren’t able complete. This almost caused me to go bankrupt despite having a couple million in the bank to complete the development.

I too suffer from not being able to close some of the windows due to the X being in dead space (where my service signal is etc) I am on a 16 pro.

There also seems to be quite a lot of recessions, In one save on easy mode I had 16 within 100 years, that’s more than the UK has had in real life, and I feel like we aren’t living in easy mode in terms of financials 😂

Overall, it’s a great game and well worth the 99p! I look forward to the updates and seeing what gets added in the future!

Response from developer

I really appreciate you taking the time to outline the issues you’ve run into — that’s incredibly helpful. I’ll look into the land development issue you described and work on getting it resolved as soon as possible. The UI issue with not being able to close certain windows (especially around the notch/signal area) is something a few players have mentioned now, so I’ll be improving that across devices like the iPhone 16 Pro as well. Your feedback on the frequency of recessions is also noted — that’s a great point, and I’ll review the balancing there (16 in 100 years does sound a bit excessive, even by UK standards!). Thanks again for the kind words and support — it really means a lot, and feedback like this is hugely valuable for improving the game moving forward.

Worth your time

This is how I wish all games were. You pay for your product and you get a good game, no strings attached. Very reasonably priced (Probably too reasonable). It’s not the longest game but I had a great time and it seems to be actively in development so I’d be very much interested in seeing where it goes and coming back to play it again in the future. Rating it 5/5 is a no brainer

Response from developer

Thank you for such a thoughtful review — I really appreciate it. It’s great to hear you felt the game offers good value, and I appreciate the kind words about the pricing as well. I also understand your point about the length, and expanding the content and overall experience is definitely something I’m working on as development continues. It’s really encouraging to hear you’d be interested in coming back to it in the future. Thanks again for the support and for the 5/5 rating — it genuinely means a lot.

Great game

Great game, really got me hooked.
The mid to late game does feel a tad repetitive though. Also land development is really good fun, but no matter option I choose for
Medium and large plots, they always come out as flats or apartment blocks. Also converting HMO properties to flats seem to give you less monthly rent income. Of those get fixed, would be a definite 5 star!

Response from developer

Thanks for the great review — I’m really glad to hear the game got you hooked! I really appreciate the detailed feedback as well. You’re right about the mid-to-late game feeling a bit repetitive, and improving variety and progression is something I’m actively working on. The points you’ve raised about land development and HMO conversions are especially helpful and I’ll look into that. Likewise, I’ll review the balancing around HMO-to-flat conversions! Thanks again for taking the time to share this — feedback like this is incredibly valuable and helps shape future updates.

Great game

Love the game it’s definitely worth 99p if not more.
whould love to be able to buy landmarks,
also I found a bug that if you remove a tenant from a flat and add another one it’s keeps upping the rent price to extreme prices I got it up to 2million rent a month for all 18 tenants

Response from developer

Thanks for the great review — I’m really glad you’re enjoying the game and feel it’s worth the price, that means a lot! I appreciate the suggestion about being able to buy landmarks as well — that’s a really interesting idea and definitely something I can look into for future updates. Also, thank you for reporting the bug with the rent increasing when swapping tenants. That’s extremely helpful to know, and I’ll investigate and fix it as soon as possible — £2 million rent is definitely not intended! Thanks again for your support and for taking the time to share both ideas and issues — it really helps improve the game.

Fantastic

Brilliant game credit to the dev, really realistic too. Was HOOKED for hours after i bought it. Eventually gets too easy. Tried it on hard mode, takes a while to find the right property you can afford but eventually you can do it hard mode is just a slower start thats the only real difference.

Hope you keep developing it, mid/late game gets a bit too easy.

Looking forward to updates and would happily pull my wallet out for expansions etc best game on the appstore

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the kind review — I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed the game and that it kept you hooked for so long! It means a lot to hear that you found it realistic as well. I really appreciate the feedback on the difficulty curve too. You’re right that the mid-to-late game can become a bit too easy, and balancing that progression — especially making hard mode feel more distinct — is something I’m looking into for future updates. And thank you for the very generous comment about it being one of the best games on the App Store — that genuinely means a lot. It’s great to hear you’d be interested in expansions as well. Feedback like this is incredibly helpful and really motivates future development. Thanks again for your support!

Decent game

I brought the game yesterday and flew through it, I think it has a lot of potential if there was more to make, buy & manage.
The only issue I ran into is when going onto the property news tab I’m unable to click the X out of it without rotating my device. I’m not sure if this is consistent across all devices however I’m on an iPhone 15.
Looking forward to future updates. Good all round game so far for the price
