Great but…..

I love sim city but there are no churches and I’m a Christian so please add churches


Ruined by in-app purchases

The actual gameplay is fantastic. More and more elements are added as you level up, keeping it interesting. HOWEVER, without shelling out for the in-game currency, you won’t get far. At level 15, I finally had to delete the game because I couldn’t keep my Sims happy without paying. And it would be another matter if all it took was a buck or two, or if all paying to play did was speed up game play. But that wasn’t the case. I reached a point where I couldn’t afford the buildings I needed to keep my Sims happy, and the cost in Simoleons (the game’s currency) amounted to more than $100 USD. Ain’t no way that’s happening.


Could be great but developer is greedy
frugalfugus

This game is set up so that you will be constantly short on cash and not be able to do anything without GRINDING super hard for barely any $$$ because they want you to put real money in the game by buying sim cash. Its pretty pathetic how little yoh can get done without putting real money in the game or waiting super long to do anything. Not worth the time or effort because youll always be cash strapped if you try to have any level of momentum. Hard pass.


Why sim city TELL ME
Dominick pieri

They got rid of all my progress and I work so hard and it did this to me why!


Global trade in game issues

I think its pretty obvious that the players want the global trade issues to be fixed. Nobody needs ten slots of sugar and spices up.


Mostly love it

This game is fun. There’s plenty to do and a lot of game play available. However I’m getting frustrated with the Design Contests. It is too easy for the contest to close and have a design not get submitted. When the contest closes any design that has met the minimum requirements should automatically submit or be rewarded the submission points. I had a design that even though there was time on the clock (seconds) when I hit submit didn’t get submitted. I was done just waiting for nightfall for the picture. Very frustrating. You have no lighting control, and no idea how much time is going to pass for the light to cycle. Then it turns out you can’t rely on the time to submit countdown either. I’m changing my rating from 4 stars to 3. it used to be possible to watch adds to accelerate the completion of raw goods from the factories. This feature has been removed. This makes the game too drawn out or expensive. Already it is difficult or expensive to expand storage as well as to expand a large city. It is frustrating and boring to have to wait so long to progress. I’m thinking of quitting altogether.


Applied economics lessons
News first

You get to see and experience the adverse side effects of misguided centralized planning, like the tremendous waste from incentivizing people to produce a commodity (like sugar & spice) for which there is only limited demand. Although very frustrating, be prepared for poor application performance during time sensitive tasks and plan accordingly. Others are stuck, too.


Power and epic mission bugs need fixing
Jimmy squeeze

This game is very fun but some of my buildings can’t upgrade because it says there’s not enough power even though my capacity is high then my demand this needs to be fixed I also can’t do epic missions even though I am at the right level it won’t show up that’s also a bug that needs to be fixed I would rate it higher if there wasn’t this many bugs


The Best City Game!
Lilandagi

SimCity , once I bought it left me with joy, I developed a city and was amazed by all the things that were available and overall I like the game, like it has everything, trading, airports, disasters, cool buildings land marks and even W A R S?!?! ⚔️. Well this game is really good with epic buildings and epik features. I hope you can continue upgrading the game by updating and actually having updates that overhaul the game to its limits would be amazing and so many people play it, it’s just like a stress relief game where you just build and do other things and have overall fun. the only thing I hate is that this game is like pay2win so I would like it if priced were down because before EA was friendly for its customers but is now greedy and stealing money so pls make 250 sim cash not 10 dollars but Like $5 and the max being like 49.99 amd decreasing the price to bring back the good old EA which was friendly and joyful PLEASE DEVELOPERS MAKE PRICES LOWER. I hope this gives you ideas how to improve the game and make it joyful for people of all ages while there a child or an old man .


Awful game !
