Designer City Games—The best!

This is another great designer game. You don’t have to spend money! You can spend hours designing and re-designing your perfect city. Or you can re-set your game and start over. No ads. Recently they offered a nice set of buildings for a set amount. One complaint. The ground covering is tan or blue. The colors are too light for me to see them.Otherwise I love designer city games and look forward to the future city.

I really want to love this game but there’s a downside that’s a deal breaker!

I love the concept of this game and that it's free! I play Designer City 2 and have built my city twice. Now that I finished the 2nd time I decided to try Aquatic City as I love the buildings! But, it takes FOREVER to get enough money to build or upgrade anything. It takes so long that I might be lucky enough to upgrade a utility once every other day. That makes the game zero fun. And, if you want to earn extra gold you have to deal with ads! I would give this game a 5 if it weren't for these two issues. Designer City 2 is definitely the better of the 2 games because you can build every day and not sit for days waiting for enough money to upgrade just 1 item. I sure hope they fix this soon as it's a definite deal breaker!

We've listened to player feedback and have just updated the game substantially reducing the building costs. We don't recommend upgrading until you are quite advanced in the game.

Can’t get past tutorial

No, it’s not wrong. It gets stuck in the tutorial and will not let you click anything to move forward. The FAQ/Help page is preloaded without a contact link. I tried. I play other games by you and they work fine. This one gets stuck and needs to be fixed instead of being told I’m wrong. In the tutorial when you get to add transportation, it won’t let you tap anything to move forward. The only button that works is “view tunnels” so you can’t do anything. Support is just genetic answers and no way to report a bug. (As in there is no link to get help if the issues are not covered under the generic FAQ and there should be one) So no, it’s not wrong, this is not playable. It needs to be fixed. Developers should look into it instead of saying I’m wrong. Clearly a customer has an issue and that was a horrible response.

We’ve reviewed your comment carefully, and unfortunately, much of it is inaccurate. The tutorial step in question clearly states “add a road,” and only that button is enabled. Once tapped, either confirm or cancel will progress the tutorial. There is no “view tunnels” button at that point, nor is there any way to get stuck. The tutorial is also skippable at any time (the link is bottom left of the screen).You also mentioned there’s no way to contact us—we’re not sure how that conclusion was reached, as the support button is always available in the in-game settings menu. We respond to every message individually; nothing is automated or generic. We’re happy to assist any player with a real issue, but posting a 1-star review based on incorrect assumptions, refusing to use the support channels, and accusing us of giving a “horrible” response when none was received, is not helpful to anyone—least of all other players reading these reviews.If you’re still stuck or need help, we’re always here. But claiming the game is “not playable” because you didn’t tap the one highlighted button isn’t an accurate reflection of the experience.If you would like help with this, please send an email, including screenshots of the issue you are having and we will be happy to help.If for some reason you cannot send an email from the game, our email address is support@spheregamestudios.com

Beautiful and relaxing

I play all their games which are all excellent. This one is my favorite. Creating a beautiful underwater city is so enjoyable and relaxing. Watching the fish swim around the coral reefs and stunning architecture leaving behind tiny bubbles is so relaxing. Love how buildings do not require roads which really allows you imagination to flow to build your city.

Added a new city advisor screen to quickly see all the problems in your city. New stats tab in city info screen. Heatmap improvements. Added a buildings log to the city advisor - see everything you've recently built and removed. Warehouse capacity increased to 200. Number formatting now matches your language. Performance improvements. Many fixes and improvements.
