Amazing

IIan total gamer

An amazing mobile game, I’ve been with the sims through my entire education life until present and its never disappointed me. I would like to see a recommendation button for new ideas though but I can’t seem to find one I have a personal idea that I’ve thought of for years and I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s thought of it but not sure if there has been any response to it, I feel like we should get a city edit button like how clash of clans has a village layout tool. I’d really like to redesign my city with ease rather than having everything a mess.

Boring and slow

They make your click and pull all of the materials and wait for them to be made. The original sims you can be a major not a drag wait or pay to go faster. This game is a boring money grab.

would be really fun without massive paywall

just like many other games, this would be really fun if there was a more efficient way to earn simoleans. as you continue to play, it becomes harder and harder to meet objectives, make necessary upgrades, and expand your city, without spending real money on the game. the rate at which you earn simoleans in comparison to the cost of items makes a large portion of the game feel unattainable. the game would be more fun if leveling/expansion slowed down and the cost of items was reduced, so that people could play the game and create cool cities that they like without having to grind for simoleans constantly just to make their city look semi decent & be functional. it has become a constant production game rather than a cool city building game. i feel the number of types of buildings available makes it seem that the cost of the buildings is only to slow down players and keep them interested in the game because there isn’t that much content available and if it were easier they would stop playing sooner when they’ve effectively “beat” the game. it would also be better if the game was more centered on having and visiting friends. more detail: as a breakdown of the pay rate… one of the fastest money earning items in this game are nails. they sell max for $80. they take 5 mins to make. as a result, if i grind selling nails, the following items will take this long to save up for: dept. of education: cost=$40,000 time=41.6 hours dept. of transportation: cost=$40,000 time=41.6 hours fusion power plant: cost=$90,000 time=93.75 hours water pumping station: cost=$45,000 time=46.875 hours deluxe sewage treatment plant: cost=$35,000 time=36.45 hours police precinct: cost=$36,000 time=37.5 hours recycling center: cost=$60,000 time=62.5 hours deluxe fire station: cost=$22,000 time=22.91 hours now that’s not to say that’s how long it takes to save for each of those items, as you certainly can make money in other ways while also making and selling nails. however, most of those items you need more than one, if not many of them, to expand your city. additionally, the time calculated is time spent playing the game. i play games like these during my breaks throughout the day and before bed so it would take me forever to earn any one of these items. my current situation: im currently at level 15, need more capacity for power, water, sewage, and waste management. i don’t have any more space to build more residential buildings without having to buy more police and fire stations, and this entire time i have only been able to buy the cheapest service items yet. i have not been able to get any of those more expensive upgrades nor the dept. of education or transportation, which also significantly limits my ability to spend the keys i’ve earned as well. additionally, because i need to upgrade those service items, my people are not as happy so i make less money on a daily basis and the game becomes nearly unplayable (read: not fun to play). i also need a gardening supplies store still which i simply havent been able to buy yet. i cannot upgrade or grow my population to make more money because i am already lacking services. so im at the point where id have to grind selling nails for 40 hours straight.

Improvement

I really enjoy playing this game and I would like to get new features to make it more fun to play. These are the following: 1. Make some kind of editor that would say “Edit City”, this would help players who begin with no plans on how to make a city plan. Therefore, it would be great to have this feature to make it easy to edit your city without causing population lost, have to rebuild roads, and have to sell extra buildings that end up wasted bc of the new “rebuild”, etc… It would be great to have different designs at least 3 different layouts of the city without losing any progress on the way. 2. Make it easier to buy items on the shop, I always struggle finding a specific item when I try to finish building, or having to use it for the daily challenges. 3. Reduce the ítems needed to expand the city, it will help speed up the game a bit more and be able to gain more experience on how ti manage a city. I will appreciate if this will be added on the game, I’m sure many will agree in some of these.

Money Money Money

BSW :)

Fun game, however, you have to spend a lot of money to get anywhere in this game. I don’t mind spending a few dollars here or there. Sadly I had to quit ☹️

The Green Factory is not available!

SlotFan12

I’ve unlocked the Green Valley Region, but the Green Factory is not available to place in the city. To add insult to injury- The contest of mayors asks you to produce and collect an item as part of a streak assignment. I automatically lose about 10K in points. What is going on???? Please fix this bug!!!

Such a waste

Papaw1066

I wouldn’t mind playing, but I played years ago and it makes me play that old city. All I want to do is start a new city. Trying to make a new Facebook account doesn’t work, and you can’t delete the Game Center account. So, you’re screwed if you want a fresh start. You lose my interest now, kthxbye

Expansions are dumb…

Flipmykitty606

I LOVED this game!!!!! However, I got to the point where I can’t continue unless I expand. But, I can’t expand because finding those tools to expand take FOREVER!!!!!! Can you make it cost money instead?? I really want to continue because I love this game, but I can’t due to the expanding. It takes me 6 months-1 year to expand in 1 SPOT!!!!

Great but
