SimCity BuildIt Tips & Cheats
It’s always difficult to pick up on any tricks in brand new games with a limited release; I managed to play around with this game despite it not being released in my country yet to get a sense of what the hype was about. I quickly picked up on a couple things that anyone should apply to their playing experience. First of all, keep an eye on your resources, try to bank as many as you can so when you really need to use them later, you won’t have to go on a mad scramble to try and rustle up what you need only to find that you’re going to have to wait several hours until you can collect from your other buildings.
Since this is a city management game, the happiness of your citizens should always be put before any new building you may want to start work on, if you’ve ot an unhappy citizen, whatever project you want to work on needs to be put on the back burner until that single citizen is happy. Don’t forget that parks will boost happiness and popularity of the surrounding homes, so if you need to build something, build a few parks around your less popular areas of town. Also, ensure that you’ve properly placed fire departments throughout your city otherwise you could end up having an inferno on your hands and no firemen to save the screaming residents, and you’ll never be able to live with yourself again.
SimCity BuildIt Review
Personally, I’ve always been a fan of the SimCity games, so I was somewhat apprehensive when I heard about the soft release of SimCity BuildIt, I was somewhat apprehensive and had to try it for myself.
Luckily, this is one of those rare few games on the market that does not require an internet connection and will work offline, which is a feature that will definitely draw more players. I also really like how there are no construction timers on your new buildings at the beginning of the game; this is a feature that I especially hate in every other city building simulation out there.
I like how SimCity BuildIt has stayed true to its roots and the overall structure of the game hasn’t changed all that much, you are the city’s mayor and you have to work on making it even better to make your population grow. You are responsible for the happiness of your citizens, which you can maintain by providing fire houses, energy, water and other various resources.
The tutorial is fairly short but very informative and allows you to learn everything about the game that you need to, you’re quickly thrown into the action once the tutorial is over, without feeling confused or left without a clue of what you’re supposed to be doing to make your city thrive.
I was drawn to this game very quickly, gathering lots of resources, upgrading all of my buildings, organizing my buildings neatly so I looked like and OCD freak and just generally taking care of all the little people who lived in my domain. There was always something to do, so I really didn’t feel the need to close the game.
Sadly, this does seem to be yet another one of those games that are discreetly pushing themselves onto you, trying to get you to buy premium currency that you might not want, need or even be able to afford. Several users have complained about spontaneously losing their entire games and only to be met by silence when they turned to EA for help in resolving their issues. With every new update comes drastically changing prices, less resource supply demands being met and even reduced range for buildings like the fire station. I can understand that this is a very new game and they are just trying to work the kinks out of it, but to me, it just seems like they’re throwing even more new kinks into the productivity and popularity of the game.
As you work on leveling up, you begin hitting brick walls in your progress. You begin to see timers appearing on your construction jobs and resource wait times, first waiting for only a minute, but quickly having to wait upwards of twenty minutes to collect your resources. You are also soon limited with how many buildings you able to create so your formally steady pace quickly grind to a near halt as it becomes controlled by the dictatorship of the game. I quickly had nothing to do but to play the waiting game in regards to my dwindling resources. The action of the game slowed down so much that I just ended up quitting out of the game until a push notification popped up telling me my resources were ready to collect.
Ratings:
Artwork: I give SimCity BuildIt an 8/10 for its artwork. The graphics of this game a beautifully done, the artists have clearly paid great attention to even the smallest of detail of the shadows and lighting. I love the art provided for the change from night to day and day to night.
Music and SFX: I give the game a 6/10 for its music and SFX. Whilst the music to this game is definitely fun and full of spunk, the sound effects used are cheesy and stereotypical and make me just want to mute my game.
Story and Originality: I give the game a 4/10 for its story and originality. While at first it seems like an awesome new original game with nothing like it out there, as you get deeper into the game, you find yourself realizing that many features of the game are really no different than popular games like Farmville, CityVille or even Family Guy: TQFS. They just took a concept that worked for them in the past, made it free to play with the option to buy premium currency and hoped like hell it was a hit. Sadly with all the changes they’ve been making, I don’t think they’ll have the ragingly successful game that they hoped they might have.
General Gameplay: I give the game a 5/10 for its general gameplay. I feel like this game just deceives you right from the beginning, it promises to be this game that is so utterly different from every other city building sim out there, but it’s just lying. The tutorial promises this action filled, exciting and competitive city builder, but it just fails to deliver, between the wait times and ending up with absolutely nothing to do, I’m not so sure this game is worth my time.
Addictiveness: I give this game a 5/10 for its addictiveness. Had the game carried on the way it had begun, I could have easily gotten addicted to this game. However, with the drastic changes withing so little time of playtime, I was more inclined to just delete the app and use the device for something more fun like a calculator or something.
Overall, I rate SimCity BuildIt 5/10.
