True to its physical version. Barebone gfx/sfx. No online MP, only AI and Local P&P. UI is clunky, not ideal for cellphones. Tiles in the Market Area are too big and cover half screen, making it difficult to have a clear overview of what's going on. Tutorial is lacking but Rulebook and Tiles Overview are provided. Campaign mode is fun and unlocks expansions. Can switch between Collector's Ed tiles and Classic. To solve the zoom-out bug: tap the Cog icon topleft > Recenter. Good but buy on sale.
I got this game free with the purchase of the CE Kickstarter boardgame. It has rapidly become one of my favourite games on my phone and lets me play through various strategies before receiving the final product. The only downside I can find is that there are still some AI improvements that need to be done. Like buying a tile that is available for +6 when the same tile is available for +0 and there isn't the goal of least money... Broken now on Sansung Galaxy Tab (2022)
Unplayable.... On my Galaxy Z Fold 3, the start and back buttons are located under the game boost buttons, even in tablet mode. Please fix, it was playable on my older Galaxy S10
Great Game...but a few suggestions: 1) need a campaign save progress function across different devices. 2) needs a zoom out function to get a COMPLETE VIEW of the played tiles; it is crazy having to drag the screen around so much. This is especially true in Campaign mode as the tiles are spread so widely. (More specifically, the zoom in function works fine, the zoom out function doesn't go far enough in my opinion.)
'Suburbia' is a port of the board game. If you liked 'Castles of Mad King Ludwig' you'll like this as it's by the same people and made to the same high standards. —PROS: The game works well on any hardware. Gameplay makes a reasonable amount of sense. Nice graphics and music. Fairly quick. Doesn't cost a lot. —CONS: No Google Play Games achievements or game save backup, if that matters to you. 'Castles' has Google Play Games integration, but it's broken, which is worse than not having it at all.
Good idea, poor execution, I don't even know what to do in this game. Maybe showing some tutorial, hints, or tips could help but well, glad I bought with cutoff price, if I pay full price for this I'd be so mad. But can I have refund for this?
Needs work. Zoomed out and player board glitched and couldn't find main player board to place tiles. Symbols and words on bottom of some tiles very small and difficult to read. Shame, seems like a fun game.
Great game. Please add good expansions!
Fun time, but UI needs overhaul. The market covers up half (or more) of the screen for 90% of the game, making it impossible to watch other players' moves or get a feel for what your city looks like from a large scale. However, besides that issue the adaptation is lovingly done with great attention to detail.
Great game, poor ui.
