### 3/5 — Make more things free

*2026-09-08, version 1.7.2*

Really fun game but too much content I think you should make more things free than just on thing.

### 2/5 — What?!

*2026-09-04, version 1.7.2*

Why do I have to pay for everything? I only have the cafe, and apartment 41.

### 3/5 — : ,

*2026-09-02, version 1.7.2*

My dad was trying to fix this and I couldn't so I use Amazon tablet (buy v3_p
) :

### 3/5 — POV don’t buy dis!

*2026-08-27, version 1.7.2*

It’s good, but when I updated it today, there was nothing new

### 4/5 — I don’t like how you have to pay for the city

*2026-08-19, version 1.7.0*

I don’t like how you have to pay for the rest of the city because it’s so annoying for parents especially if it’s a kids game besides kids are going to be bothering their parents so so much because they want to buy the rest of the city
But otherwise, I like the game

### 3/5 — Canna ok I gest🙄

*2026-08-17, version 1.7.0*

When I play the game the only place I can go is my house 😡 so I r give it three stars😡 I was done with the game I deleted it!

### 2/5 — Exigimos atualizações!!

*2026-08-17*

O jogo é legal,eu me atrai com as fotos mas não era exatamente como eu imaginava….tudo que dá para fazer no jogo é apenas ENTRAR NUM APARTAMENTO,não tem mais nada para fazer,os outros lugares são pagos,antes isso aí era muito bom! Nada era pago e você não precisava andar pela cidade atoa,tinha tudo! Agora…NÃO TEM NADA. Como vocês tem a ousadia de fazer isso? Caso vocês verem os anos que TODAS as reclamações foram enviadas,é literalmente o tempo que agente acha que foi uma perda de tempo abaixar esse jogo, se juntar todos esses problemas de todos os seu joguinhos criados,cada lugar ser pago, e ainda muitas reclamações, considera o seu jogo ; Chato

### 2/5 — I like the game but I have a problem

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-09-01, version 1.7.2*

I downloaded it today and at fist it was good but i realised that you can’t play with out paying 
ATTENTION DO NOT GET THIS GAME!

### 1/5 — Alles muss man kaufen das ist echt ****

*2026-08-23*

. Alles muss man kaufen. Das ist nicht gut für kleine Kinder. Sie werden sehr viel Geld deswegen ausgeben vor allen Dingen für die alte Omi. Da muss man sehr viel kaufen. Es kostet insgesamt sieben Euro und das ist schon echt teuer. Ich bin echt empört.

### 1/5 — DONT GET THIS

*2026-08-22, version 1.7.0*

I agree with all the reviews I’ve read there’s nothing to do. Straight way you arrive in the game it’s asks you your age and gender. Casual . But then you arrive but there’s no text to tell you no information just a plane city of plane old nothing . And the locations. OH THIS MAKES ME RAGE SO HARD . ALL the locations EVERY SINGLE ONE. You pay for and prices are too high. If you’re looking for a good role play game Toca . 
That game will actually give you something

### 1/5 — ...

*2026-08-21, version 1.7.0*

### 1/5 — Bad review

*2026-08-18, version 1.7.0*

You’re acting like people got money. Money Don’t  grow on trees. Like you just want money for y’all. So from all this game is not free so I would not likeTo play this game to make your kid cry my kid wanted  to play this game so she’s cried and remind you my kid is only four years old. so I give this a one star.

### 1/5 — Urban city stories

*2026-08-11, version 1.7.0*

So basically it you can you cannot create a a character and you have to buy everything so you shouldn’t download it

### 1/5 — Free

*2026-08-08, version 1.7.0*

Please make it free. I have to pay for half of the stuff make some of it free please.

### 1/5 — It scammed me kinda  lokey

*2026-08-07, version 1.7.0*

So I really wanted to try this game but sadly to get the full game is like 6 dollars so lokey it’s boring now. So don’t download if u r gonna buy it

### 1/5 — Fix this game !!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — This is why I do not like it

*2026-08-22, version 1.7.0*

It’s because my mommy had to pay for it and it’s really not good. I would write the one if I was a grown-up. I’m waiting a while. I would waited the one to wait one. I would’ve waited one so this is how I like the other game like the other game you made to go to hospital where did you got a free so I was sticking my gladiator Cousin 💕 cause I think they tried thatit was so much fun so so so so I would always wait to play the hospital game but this game is This game is too much paying
