Microlandia

Extremely addictive and well optimised

As a kid, I grew up on Sim City 3000 and Sim City 4. When I first saw this game, I thought it could help me relive my nostalgia with a new look. What I got was substantially more than I could have hoped for. Beyond the simple outward appearance lies a complex and detailed simulation. At every step of the way, it challenges the player to build a city more responsive to its citizens' needs (while somehow keeping the budget afloat). Beyond that, the developer seems quite active and responsive to player feedback. I'm excited to see where this game goes. But for now, I'm hooked!

cute little game with a lot of soul and an active developer. if you wanna unwind with a relatively simple city builder, this is well worth the price.

if you just came back from your 9-5 and kept losing on games like cs comp or marvel rival , etc. This game is for you!

I initially liked this game but had to stop playing after the major update. No matter how much I build, or cut, my finances are always in the red and I cannot change things. If I raise taxes, less people come in; if I raise taxes, people don't come. There's nothing I can do in this situation. Hope this can be improved.

I'm giving the game a thumbs up, but I feel it needs to cook for a few more years. It is cheap enough that it doesn't deserve a thumbs down. This has potential to be a great little city builder, but at the moment it feels a bit barebones and a little unintuitive. The public transport system for example is not very good. There are only buses and no way to find out how utilized they are. I can see number of trips but that doesn't tell me if I should buy more buses. There is only 1 type of road. Why is there so much demand for business despite high unemployement (like 30% unemployement)? Healthcare capacity jumps around so much it's hard to know if you have enough other than via the approval rating. Do people feel they are paying too much tax? Too little? There is no city sound ambience. Etc, etc. That said, the dev seems active. And while I haven't played heaps I will try it out again later. I wanted to like it becaue it looks very cute. I love the artstyle. It just didn't hook me.
