### 5/5 — Criação de conta

*2026-07-05*

Deveria ter como criar uma conta pra salvar o progresso do jogo, magina por ventura a pessoa precisar resetar o celular e perder todo o progresso feito no jogo

### 1/5 — Can’t close ads

*2026-05-04*

Have to close the app and reload it because the close icon doesn’t work even after several minutes of the ad.

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-12-10, version 1.16.0*

Game still hasn’t got old to me yet

### 4/5 — Fun

*2025-10-02*

I would prefer more decorative items but it is a fun game.

### 5/5 — Herşey çok güzel

*2025-09-29, version 1.15.2*

Sadece oyunu kapatınca oyun devam etse oyuna girmeden para kazanamıyorsun

### 1/5 — Don’t believe what you read

*2025-08-31*

I’ve tried many city build games and this one ranks very low. Nothing, and I mean nothing, happens when you are offline and very little happens when you are online. No resources collected unless you are actively playing and the “villagers” do nothing except drive around in there little cars. I’d give it less than 1 star if I could. Don’t waste your time with this one

### 5/5 — Super jeu

*2025-06-14*

Il y a beaucoup de choix

### 5/5 — 😆👍

*2025-03-29*

久しぶりの街づくり楽しんでます✨

### 1/5 — C bien

*2025-01-30*

Ce jeu est bien dans l’ensemble mais des fois je suis bloqué je ne plus rien faire et je dois attendre de récupérer les pièces de mes bâtiments commerciaux.⌚️

### 3/5 — Way too many ads!

*2025-01-27*

This game is pretty great like most of their “City Island” games but the amount of ads are insane! Have to clear 5 popup ads for other games in a row and about every 5-10 minutes it plays a full unskippable video ad with multiple steps to clear with no reward! Most games give a reward for watching a video ad.
