Ruined by in-app purchases – SimCity BuildIt Review

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.
