What we like:
  • Very tranquil and calming game
  • Simple yet challenging gameplay
  • Stunning graphics and soothing soundtrack

  • No complex tutorials or overwhelming menus to navigate
What could be improved:
  • May not be as calming as intended due to the need for improvement in each island
  • May not be what some players expect from a city-building game
  • Limited explanation on where to place pieces and clunky snapping of the pieces together
  • The addition of certain achievements may ruin the game for some players
