« Une ambiance génial qui change des autres city builders. Les mécanismes de jeu sont bons. Il faut toujours tout bien réajuster, c'est très plaisant Mention spécial pour la musique très prénante qui donne presque un côté épique. »

« It is a good game. I would like to recommend it, but there are still a few bugs and the devs abbandoned it. And when you abandon a game you do not deserve a positive review. »

« Not really fun, I wanted a city builder and it is basically just a glorified tetris with buildings. I kind of feel cheated. »

« There is no building. There is no city. There is no simulation. Only a puzzle game dressed as a city builder. It's like barebones ANNO. »

« Shallow and clunky, more puzzle game than city builder. Refunded. »

« Un jeu d'optimisation incroyable ! L'ambiance du jeu semble calme et reposant mais c'est un casse tête pour organiser au mieux votre village. Je recommande pour les fans de City Builder. »
