Close Cities is a relaxing logic puzzle: build cities along the roads and give every road exactly the cities it needs. Easy to learn, hard to put down. HOW TO PLAY • The number next to each road shows how many cities it needs. • Every city must touch a road, and it can't be on two roads at once. • Cities can't touch side by side; diagonally is fine. • Tap or drag to build. When a city is valid, it lights up in color. 480 LEVELS, TWO MODES • Kingdoms: travel through different eras of history and build each king's empire. • Empires: cities of different sizes and roads that ask for new combinations. AT YOUR OWN PACE • No timer, no rush: think every move through calmly. • Relaxing music and a clean, charming art style. • Play offline: on the subway, while traveling or before bed. • Stuck? Ask for a hint. FOR EVERYONE • A quick tutorial teaches you the rules in a minute. • If you like sudoku and logic puzzles, you'll love it. • Free, with a one-time purchase to remove ads. Close Cities is made by The Pangry, the creators of Broki.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MUJO at none against Close Cities's shown. MUJO also leads on review sentiment (82% vs 69%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Close Cities's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MUJO sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Close Cities sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Close Cities holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 140 and 365 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of MUJO's written reviews are positive against 69% of Close Cities's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MUJO ships an update fortnightly, Close Cities monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
