It was supposed to take 1 day and it’s day 3 and my game hasn’t moved forward. ### 4/5 — Fun game *2026-04-20, version 0.7.14* Fun but needs more levels. Sometimes it runs slow. ### 4/5 — A decade later I still play this *2026-03-06, version 0.7.14* I have been playing this since I was a kid until I fully under this game and now im addicted playing it but it makes me sad that this game is technically abandoned. I think this game has good potential when I watched old tutorial videos on this game, unfortunately I have maxed out my residents and it’s repetitive having same quest and I can’t do the old mayor quest because how long it’s been since the last update. I hope this game gets a reviving, till then I’m stuck under a loop. ### 3/5 — Offline mode *2026-01-12, version 0.7.14* The game needs to be fully offline and have a pause button ### 3/5 — Help *2026-01-05, version 0.7.14* I’ve been playing this games for a couple of years now, and I’ve been trying to play everyday like I usually do, but lately, for instant the past 3 months, im loosing a lot of my towns folk, and my town is messy due to the game being REALLY REALLY laggy, can you please fix this ### 4/5 — Nice game *2025-11-07* Plz give some new decorations and features ### 4/5 — Love it, but… *2025-10-31, version 0.7.14* I’ve loved playing this game for years now. I haven’t played in a long while until recently and it’s suuuuuper laggy… to the point it jumps around which makes it hard to play. Please fix!! ### 3/5 — it’s decent *2025-09-22, version 0.7.14* honestly after a while it does get kind of boring because there becomes pretty much nothing else to do except clean up the town ### 2/5 — issues *2025-07-13, version 0.7.14* THIS GAME HAS SOME SERIOUS ISSUES. LAGS AND WONT COMPLETE THE TASK. I PLAYED THIS GAME YEARS AGO AND LOVED IT BUT NOW NOT SO MUCH. PLEASE FIX ### 2/5 — Too glitchy *2025-06-28, version 0.7.14* I can barely play the game without having glitches all over. I can barely move my character around. ### 2/5 — Laggy after a few days *2025-05-12, version 0.7.14* Nice at first, no lag, nice game, cutesy vibe. Something I’d play to destress. After a few days, the game becomes stressful from the lag. Its not my phone either or the wifi, it’s the game. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — virtual town *2026-07-20, version 0.7.14* so boring ### 1/5 — Forgotten and unplayable *2026-05-06, version 0.7.14* Runs at like 3 FPS on the latest iPhone. Yes it’s an old game but it’s essentially unplayable. ### 1/5 — Bad controllers *2026-02-28, version 0.7.14* it has so much potential but its so hard to control. She always run so slow and always misses bugs ### 1/5 — Horrible game *2026-01-02, version 0.7.14* I have been playing for awhile now and there isn’t anything new. I fixed everything and can’t figure out how to get the cinema open. Day after day it is the same thing. Truly boring and stale. Not sure why anyone would give this 5 stars. ### 1/5 — The game cut off I don’t know what happened but it cut off and won’t open up *2025-12-31, version 0.7.14* I’m going to delete no more play cause I spent money on both from the beginning of both games for y’all cut it off and now won’t open up better not charging me or you be In trouble I will make complaint to for both virtual town games cut off and won’t open up rip off I think you steal peoples money and then go cut off the game that is not right I was into it for cutting it off🤬😡 now you charge me 21.73 when you're game won't open back up steal people money that game don't open back up rip off🤬😡 ### 1/5 — Devices Not compatible *2025-08-06, version 0.7.14* Wont load on iphone 15 pro. Even with the graphics turned down ### 1/5 — No thanks *2025-05-12, version 0.7.14* This game runs like horse dung. Can't load, low demand mode is useless and I couldn't even run or zoom in. Not sure why but quickly uninstalled. Happy I didn't waste my time. ### 1/5 — Where everyone? *2025-05-06, version 0.7.14* i wonder when the last time the developers update the game … it’s everyone still alive? any update? ### 1/5 — Love it *2025-03-20, version 0.7.14* Could be a good pass time. Like it till it froze and then found out no one was taken care of it. I don’t understand why it’s still in the App Store. Y’all need to fix it or take it out. ### 1/5 — Dead Game *2025-03-03, version 0.7.14* This game is beyond dead. Please do not waste your time or money on this. The developers haven’t touched this game in almost a decade. The game should be taken off of the App Store. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing and nostalgic game *2026-08-11, version 0.7.14* I’ve played this game for about 10-11 years maybe and its still just as fun as it was back then, i wish the developers would return to this game but i know they probably will not. Even at that however, it is still a great game and even without any updates, it remains that way. ### 5/5 — PLEASE COME BACK *2026-06-18, version 0.7.14* I love this game so much, please come back and finish the rest of the game plot and stuff. I want more stuff about the previous mayor and more quests. ### 5/5 — I love this game *2026-05-02, version 0.7.14* I’ve been playing this game for years also hope to see another game like this soon pls make me a virtual town 2!! ### 5/5 — Cozy game *2026-03-27, version 0.7.14* I really wish they updated this game to be compatible with the new IOS updates I tried “low demand mode” but it still lags a lot in general the game is really interesting and years later I still want to play it ### 5/5 — Update?? *2026-01-14, version 0.7.14* Is there any possibility of this game being updated?

I would loveeee if this game got updated magically and here are some recommendations! -ability to have a romantic partner -more town monuments and upgrades -ability to interact with residents more by inviting them over or something! that’s it! :) ### 5/5 — Please make a sequel! *2025-05-18, version 0.7.14* I would love to play more of this!
