Don’t do daily missions

The daily missions are designed to trap you in a foreign territory. While they tell you it will cost you money to fly back, they don’t disclose that it is a significant amount

Hopeless

It won’t let me do anything, and then the logins disappeared and the tracking you while you go visit places thing doesn’t work. It’s hopeless. It’s awful by design.

FAQ

What is Upland: City-Builder?

Upland is a real-world city-building simulation game where players can plan, build, and trade virtual properties mapped to actual addresses. Unlike traditional games, your progress and creations are permanent, shaping a living, player-driven economy on a persistent global map.

How does the player-driven economy work?

The economy is driven by players who can buy, sell, and trade virtual properties. You can also run your own business by opening shops and adding service structures to your buildings. The digital assets you acquire or create are yours to keep or sell, potentially earning real-world value.

Is the app free to play?

The app is free to download and play. However, it offers in-app purchases, which allow players to acquire virtual properties and other assets to enhance their city-building and economic strategies.

What platforms is Upland: City-Builder available on?

The game offers cross-platform progress, allowing you to seamlessly switch between mobile devices and the web. This means you can continue building your cities and managing your empire from wherever you are.

Can I build on any city in the world?

The game features a persistent, shared map of actual places, from major cities like New York to Paris. You can scout new city openings and choose prime neighborhoods to plan your empire and optimize property portfolios.
