Virtual Town for Negative User Reviews

What evenI’m the mayor and the citizens speak to me like I’m their worker. Find a ladybug? You’re dismissed?? When can I assign work for these lazy citizens instead of me doing all the work. The scripts are not immersive and the tasks are menial. The game is very pretty otherwise..Version: 0.7.14

You know what?So like…THIS IS THE ONLY GAME I AM ALLOWED TO PLAY!!! Well I only play one game and that is this game. I wish you could play with other real players and you could talk in it. So annoying!.Version: 0.7.14

Soooo unhappy!I thought this game would be so wonderful, and cute. Some of it was fun, but I mean, it needs a lot of work!! You can’t leave for a full day without the town beauty going all the way down, or a town member leaving. My family and I are very busy, and don’t have a lot of electronic time which is ok. But you come back the next day, and your people have moved out, and your town beauty keeps dropping! One more thing, the bug-catching is very un-realistic. You tap a bug with the net, it doesn’t do anything. If you aren’t even close to catching it, you catch it! It is so annoying! If I could give this game 0 stars I would. It needs a lot of fixing. Please fix it! I would enjoy playing it and giving it good reviews if these problems were fixed. But for now, I am unhappy and suggest you don’t waste your time on this game. P.s.- This needs to be posted on reviews for people to see. All I see are good reviews and I’m sure a lot of people are unhappy with this game. People need to know that this is not the best game. Please don’t be selfish and only put good reviews. People don’t want to waste there time on a bad game. More, if it gets fixed- it would be really good!.Version: 0.7.14

Why?I have an iPad Air that’s like the 5th gen why can’t I download it this used to be my favourite game.Version: 0.7.14

I Love The Virtual Family/Villagers Games, BUT TOWN…So I’ve been playing virtual villagers and families for years on and off. I believe the first game I ever downloaded was one of those. Fast forward to 2023, I’ve had town downloaded for years but never got to playing it until now. Well, sadly I don’t e how I can play. The game is very finicky and the character I adopted moves really slow. It just took me 5 minutes to walk from the center of town to the green lawn on the left side of it. This isn’t the quality I’m use to from this developer. All the other virtual games they’ve made work just fine. I don’t understand how in 23’ this game isn’t playable? 🤦🏼‍♀️ I will try it again though. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, although I’m not sure how. I double tap a spot to have my character run to but she moves so slow and the app is just finicky. If I click on details of something it takes the pop up screen with those details quite a bit to actually show up. Idk it’s shaky and just doesn’t run right. It’s not like the others. I wish it were. I was looking forward to this one, but I guess I’ll just go replay the others if this one won’t work. If it does turn out that it’s me doing something wrong I will gladly update this review. It doesn’t appear that there’s been many recent reviews either and unless I’m seeing it wrong there’s been no updates for this game in 7 years either which is really a bummer. Such a shame. I’m hoping maybe that will change but after 7 years idk 🤷🏼‍♀️.Version: 0.7.14

NoThis game is terrible, you start off going into the town where they give instruction on how to play and stuff, then you are excepted to fix the town completely yet they give you no money to help start off. They also don't give you any tools to start off and you don't even have your own house, you have to build one with no money. It's a shame because I was expecting this game to start you off with some money and tools, also a house. Disappointing. :(.Version: 0.6.7

Fun but no ending ☹️I have enjoyed playing this game for the past Several weeks. Sadly, however, there is no ending. With virtual villagers you kinda had a bit of closure you completed the different tasks and there was a time and place where you felt like there was closure. With Virtual Town you can never reach that point. There is no updates. You never get to finish the storyline, you don’t get to build the coliseum. You never get to use the movie theater or continue to build up your town. I hope they come back to this game and give us closure to the storyline and add more tasks and things to do. It would be cool to be able to build relationships, add more business, get married etc. I don’t see that happening since there isn’t really anything new posted about this game online since 2016 😩.Version: 0.7.14

Love the game butMy movie theater has not worked since I started this game. Sooo much harder to get going in plants money and furniture without it.Version: 0.7.14

Needs an update for questGame gets boring once you have completed the quest that has been done so far. Also keeps crashing on the iPads my kids have..Version: 0.7.9

Museum doesn’t workWhy museum doesn’t work ? I can not to put there anything!.Version: 0.7.14

TerribleThis game is terrible, the same boring process and tasks take a long time too..Version: 0.7.14

I didn't even rate it, it was that bad!!I hate the game! It makes no sense! Why would you run a town?! The people look so fake! I hate fake people! They are so... FAKE! Add a like if you agree with me😡😱.Version: 0.7.14

MmmmmWell for me.. I think you should be able to earn a lot of money, like I'm spending my own money to buy crops for the town people to eat! Like what is that all about? I know we resell them but it's not worth much.. And tools that brake so fast? I don't think so.. And the way the towns people talk is pretty rude.. And you need to speed things up, like fixing lakes and bridges but also why am I putting out money by myself to fix ponds etc?? Isn't it for the towns people as well? And the requests that the towns people want you to find for them is quite difficult.. I don't know I think this game is made of greed. So my rating for this game will be a 2 only because they don't allow 1 1/2 true story..Version: 0.6.7

Hasn’t been updated in YearsI spent money on the game only after to realize I can’t progress any further in the game as there’s nothing left to do. Wasted my money..Version: 0.7.14

Needs a serious updateThis game needs a serious update. The game is okay but pretty slow and boring. You just basically clean the town and that’s pretty much it. Once your done with the clean up your pretty much done until the next day. So it’s the same thing over and over and over again. It needs more!!! The game at time is pretty glitchy and runs in slow motion. I’ve reset the game 5 times already just because I was bored with it and in the hopes of something new popping up. The cinema doesn’t work why idk and the developers don’t know either why not well at least that was their reply. Also, the mayor quest well who knows what else your supposed to do because I’ve fixed everything in the town and not once did I get a clue as what was next. I think if the developers actually paid attention to the game and revamp it some it would be a great game. But yeah I doubt that will happen. So in conclusion if your looking for a boring slow paced game this is definitely it!!.Version: 0.7.14

Money scamI love most of the games Last Day of Work makes because it is not necessary to spend money on them in order to play. Virtual Town is unlike the other games because you DO have to spend money in order to play. Your tools break after several uses so you have to constantly buy new ones, for anything brass it’s 100$ and those are the cheap tools in the game. Everything you do requires coin that you don’t get from being mayor. You get one coin a day from the bank unless you PURCHASE an interest upgrade. Tasks that the townspeople give you are only available for a day, so unless you already have the item they want then you’re not getting paid. If you sell something you bought then found you didn’t need it, you can sell it back, if it is unused, but only get half of what you paid for it. If you want to repair, say, the lake then you have to spend 400 $/coin for 4 days to get it done. That’s 1,600$/coin, and you don’t even start the game out with that amount of coin. I could give more examples but it would take too much time. I’m extremely disappointed in this game and the fact that it is only for money. With the amount of people who play Last Day of Work games, a money trap like this is an unnecessary and cruel trick to play on consumers..Version: 0.7.14

Pretty But Way Too LimitedI do enjoy the graphics & that it is in 'real' time... but the aging of the mayor so quickly does bother me. It is very dull when you cannot even dress your little girl or boy, have her/him do something together with you. It is very dull when you cannot have shared actions with the towns people, better interactions. You don't get to choose these town people either, not much diversity either. There is no building of houses, etc. The tasks are too repetitive. I understand for a small team putting together a game like this takes a lot, but it is worth it to all the followers to really put more levels & depth into this. One does not wish to spend money on this game because the updates seem to be not forthcoming... it is a good base to start building on, so let's hope the creators will inspired to do so....Version: 0.7.14

I really liked it...But I don’t like the part about worshipping ancestors. It doesn’t support everyone’s religion and could be easily changed..Version: 0.7.14

Could be betterFun, but gets extremely annoying how rude everyone is to you, how you and your child age 2 years everyday (but no one else does!) and how much money is spent replacing tools..Version: 0.7.14

Fun game but no updates and glitches not fixedI’ve been playing for a few months. I’ve paid out $60 due to slow getting coins to build up on my house and unlock the other side of the town etc. When your mayor retires, there is a 2 day glitch of no new tasks, cave doesn’t get new items and neither does the general store. The story line drags out as to where the mayor went and the function of the stone hedge. No new clues for quite awhile. I contacted tech support and they admitted there was no fixes that could be done and will be no updates. I’m on 4th mayor now and 3 days of glitches afterward of no cave treasures, general store items don’t change, no tasks, etc. The designer abandoned the game fixes so you have to tolerate it all. The city hall items never seem to change so you are limited items to make your town nice..Version: 0.7.14

Not the bestIn virtual families you can get a message about getting married but you can't in this it's really annoying. Could you bring out a new update so you can reopen the costume shop, I'm getting sick of having the same costume it will be 5 stars all round if this is fixed thanks To last day of work.Version: 0.4.4

Need better ways to make moneyI like this game, it’s just I little stupid how as the mayor you have to pay everything out of your own pocket and you don’t get much money! You only get a couple hundred maybe twice a day for doing tasks. I find it very hard to save up when there’s things that get done, would be nice if you had some daily income as the mayor or if the towns people had to pay a tax of some sort that would go to help bettering the town!.Version: 0.7.14

Ummm...Okay, the concept is good. Old mayor leaves, town rots, blahblahblah. But that really bugs me is how nasty the actual gameplay is. Obviously it'll be better on PC or even an iPad but it is so hard to even walk short distances. Running? Pfft. In your dreams. Another thing is why are the people so mean? They're a constant complaining chorus. It's really annoying. Can't they be, I don't know, nice? Also, how on earth do you adopt? The lady never turned up, and I can't call her. I actually had to delete and re-install the game so I could do it. For all it's flaws, it could be a really good game. I hope the next update fixes things..Version: 0.5.1

DisappointingI loved the concept when it first came out but over a year ago we were promised new updates “in the next few weeks” Never has the word “few” meant 52.Version: 0.7.14

Becomes a choreI won't lie, this game is great. I just think that it gets a bit boring at times, and sometimes the people say things that makes you not even want to help them anymore. It's just become a chore for me now, log in everyday, solve everyone's problems, catch disgusting insects to give to the museum. That sort of stuff made me quit the game. I deleted this game months ago, I applaud to those that could deal with this game. And the bug-catching aspect of the game is by far the least appealing part. Why would we want to see animated pests everywhere? No updates have been made, the storyline is far from complete, and nothing is interesting. LDW, work on your games before you plan on making new ones. This game makes me think what went wrong in the making of it. ~Sincerely, a extremely unsatisfied player..Version: 0.7.14

TO BE HONESTOKAY I've been playing this game for 5 months straight And honestly this game could do so much to up date, there are a lot of things that I dislike and a few things that I do like... Dislikes: - the town people are rude to me.. I don't believe that everyone will be rude to a new mayor after begging and begging for another mayor to take place and resolve the town. - minerals and bugs can't be found all the time... I take requests from the town people and half of the time, I can't find anything they want.. - getting money is hard.. I have to sell most of my stuff to get money, and the money provides for the food and people to clean up the town - the weeds and grass grow too quick.. nearly everyday of my play time I have to cut grass or pick the weeds - tools break a bit too quick.. honestly I'm wasting my money on buying tools - my generations are getting older but the townspeople stay the same! ITS CREEPY IM AGEING WHILE MY TOWNS PEOPLE ARE FOREVER YOUNG - oh and I don't like the fact that you get to retire and you never see your character as you started again... it's like the mayor that just went off and left the town forgotten. Likes: - my children are wonderful Honestly I think the kids are the only ones with positive comments about you - it's good that your assistant helps you - I like how you can feed your child foods and veg - I like how you can pick/ cut weeds and catch bugs. I have to admit this game needs improvements BADLY.Version: 0.7.14

It keeps telling me to think about adopting a kid but idk how to 😕The game keeps telling me I should adopt a kid but like ... I don’t know how to. The lady isn’t in my town and I don’t know what to do to fix that....Version: 0.7.14

Giving Up?This game is absolutely amazing. I love seeing noticeable progress from my hard work and efforts and I love seeing the gorgeous changes and additions you can make. The game allows anyone to express their creativity and time management skills in a fun way! This game is super fun and always has something exciting or mysterious in store. But there’s one MASSIVE issue about the ending. There isn’t one. To anyone who’s reading this review before they download, what I mean is that the games incomplete and has no direct ending as it should. You complete ALL of these tasks and missions just to end up permanently in the middle of a mysterious quest that can never be completed. It takes approximately one week to restore the village and unlock access to all areas. All that’s left to do is figure out where the previous mayor disappeared to, but that can’t be done because the game was never updated with an ending beyond the kite quest. I hope this doesn’t deter you from downloading, but please keep it in mind..Version: 0.7.14

OkaaaaaaayThis game is pretty good u guys have definitely improved but u should add pets, animals and for next game look at some Sims games u could really make some better games if u looked at there examples. Also you really need to start making more games they r mainly good and I can't believe you stopped making them.Version: 0.5.1

ShameWhat could have been a great game has been let down by lack of updates and virtually no further info by the devs. They make promises for updates but never deliver.Version: 0.7.14

⚠️game is broke⚠️So far the game was doing good. But after playing for almost about a week, the system just stopped working. Usually the next day you get new citizen tasks and clean up the town and I had my citizens working on the beach and it only had one day left. But after i believe the 7th or 6th day of playing, the new day still hasn’t started and i’m still stuck on the same day. My citizens are still working on the beach, the stores haven’t reset, the only change is that the grass grows rapidly. And I’m infuriated because i spent some money on here which I’m hoping that i can get refunded by apple, and they’re not the most trustworthy when it comes to getting your money back. Honestly this game had so much potential yet i guess the creators abandoned it. I don’t understand why you don’t just take it off the App store instead of wasting people’s time and money. Do not download this game for it doesn’t work..Version: 0.7.14

Update!This game really needs an update... I love this game but it’s getting annoying without any quests or update.Version: 0.7.14

Needs to be fixed!!Over this game crashing on me all the time, then after crashing i go back into it and i have lost all fruit and veg! My person keeps going mega slow! Then the game freezes! Too many bugs not happy cause its actually great game! Please fix!!.Version: 0.4.4

Glitch?I can’t move my town features..Version: 0.7.14

Town hall ?!?!I used to love this game but I had to delete it a while ago when it first came out , Now I've got it again and I'm really annoyed that I can't get into the town hall to get the deed for my house. It's super frustrating that everything else works except this one tiny but super crutial thing. Please get this fixed quickly . I love all of your games , just PLEASE fix this..Version: 0.7.4

Great concept but lacks depthThis is a great game that is in desperate need of a update. The challenges are too easy and once you reach a certain point, there is no update or variation to keep things interesting..Version: 0.7.14

What is going on!!!???My whole game is messed up as of today. No houses are built, including my own. Everything I’ve done on the other side of the river is there as far as aesthetically , but the bridge is no longer built, and the beach, cave and stone circle are back to square 1. My mayor has changed. My adopted kid is gone. My money doesn’t make any sense and it eerily at 6661. I can’t navigate very well because it is SO GLITCHY it hurts my eyes. This was a daily game for me, what is going on!!??.Version: 0.7.14

Great Game! But...I think this is an amazing game but there are a few problems. 1) I feel like we should get a little bit more space when we first build our house, that thing is tiny! 2) The bronze tools break very quickly. I keep having to buy them over and over again! I would get the silver ones but they are expensive! Those are the only things I can think of off the top of my head. I would love for the developers to read my review, and fix these things. I also noticed that the developers don't respond to anyone's reviews. This shows they don't care about the game. Please read and respond to the reviews and fix bugs and glitches. Thanks!.Version: 0.7.14

Fun Game... for awhileI just deleted this game after playing it for about a week. I applaud those who could keep it longer but honestly, it just gets a bit redundant. When I first got this game, I was hooked and had fun playing it. But then, I realized you have to check in everyday and when you do check in, you are completing the same tasks and it all just feels like a chore. The residents are so rude - which is odd to me, it makes me not want to take time to complete tasks for them. Also, when working on a landscape item like the lake, beach or bridge - it takes forever! I think the lake took 3-4 days. After a couple of days, it seems to take a lot of work to get your town in the green/up to the percentage it needs to be for everyone to happy. It was fun for awhile but once it started feeling like a chore, I knew I needed to delete it..Version: 0.7.14

Animal crossing, is that you?The game is an okay time passer, but it’s clear that it’s still rough around the edges. The animations are a bit robotic and not fluid but the walk time and tool cool down is extremely slow. Controlling is sometimes good, sometimes really tedious, like trying to run with certain tools. There are some charming ideas like the movie theatre but other ideas including ordinances and the names of the ordinances are clear ripoffs from animal crossing new leaf. It’s essentially a lower quality pocket camp. With that said, the things that are charming are very much so: adopting kids, the aforementioned movie theatre, the town rating and food meter. Other things need a bit of work: Being unable to get married or have your own kids is a huge downside. It’s just a bit of a letdown. The other problem is the parts that are clearly taken from animal crossing. It cannot fully become its own game. As a major animal crossing fan and a game developer of life sims myself, I found it distracting and made me feel like playing new leaf rather than checking this game every time I was reminded of it. All around has serious potential to be a breakthrough but needs some serious work, heart and less animal crossing to reach it..Version: 0.7.14

Just a question and suggestionI was expecting to be visited by the adoption person at age 24 on this game but when my person was 24 or that age the adoption person never came I can not call em and they are never coming and I am about to retire and if I do not have a child soon then I will have to rest my game so I suggest there should be a easier way to call them and make it free and we show have better looking kids and adults and we should be able to get married to people and have their own family that is not adopted also their should be a way to get money without spending your real life money and you should have a way to do tasks that you are able to do in real life so that is a lot your game needs to be good or I am permanently deleting it and never gonna think about it again!!!!!!!!.Version: 0.7.14

Make it so we can have babies & get a wifeWe need it to be with baby's.Version: 0.7.14

Needs an updateI absolutely love this game, but the last update was a year ago. Some new bugs, plants, and minerals to find would be nice...I have found almost all of them. A variation of bugs in the cave. The townspeople give the same gifts all the time. Maybe some new gifts. Expand it farther. Be able to move in more then 10 people. Just something to keep people’s interest. Dropping rating to 2 stars..Still waiting for an update. I’ve done everything I can. Now I am just maintaining the town and fulfilling townspeople’s requests...with the same stuff. Something has to change. This is a great game, but it is getting really boring. The storyline has stopped. I have collected all the gems, bugs, and plants and have over a million coins. Please update!!.Version: 0.7.14

OK Game So Far But Not a Fan of Real TimeI've played Virtual Villagers and Virtual Families many hours in the past. I'm just getting used to this game and still am confused by what I'm supposed to do (growing food and just letting it sit there? Do I take it anywhere? Do I have to feed people myself? Etc.). It could be fun but I'm not a fan of real time. I primarily play games at night, so everything being closed at that time is not helpful. It's significantly affected my ability to play the game. I don't see any option to reverse Day and Night, so this just seems like a poor decision..Version: 0.7.14

Notes about the gameThis game is very wonderful, but lacks some features 1. Help a friend by connecting to Facebook 2. Tips on finding where the residents' requests are located I wish to increase the opening hours of the store..Version: 0.7.14

Would be great - but too many consGreat game, but it's so frustrating how they expect you to catch bugs and you chase them and then they literally just disappear out of thin air. and how people will ask you for things that are impossible for you to get. i love this game but i hate it. it's stupid how you can't interact with other villagers hardly, and your adopted child doesn't know how to adult and follows you around til their 40. should be more money available to make the game worth it..Version: 0.7.14

UPDATE PLEASEPlease update soon game is super laggy and it’s so much fun but makes it so hard to play.Version: 0.7.14

Potential but currently 💩This game would be a lot of fun... but it ain't working!!! I've paid a lot of (virtual) money for all the ordinances but so far none of them are working. Especially the gardening one, all my plants died! I also wished tools lasted longer and weren't that expensive, especially earlier on in the game it's ridiculously expensive. I also wish that you could have relationships within the game, having your own kids rather than adopting them! Please improve and fix!!!.Version: 0.7.14

Boring gameThis game is very confusing to play. It's hard to make progress so the game gets boring. I've now deleted it because it was a waste of time..Version: 0.7.14

Still waiting a year later!I understood the premise of the game was for my character to improve/restore the town to its previous glory AND uncover the mystery of the previous mayors disappearance. I discovered/uncovered one piece of the mayors story very early on and restored the towns population and beauty. I find it monotonous & frustrating that week after week Nothing changes. I get no clues. The update added a little enjoyment. (Minus the constant crashing) The towns people are still rude. I am getting really sick of not being able to unravel more of the mystery. UPDATE: I recently started playing the game again & gotta Say I’m kind of sickened by the fact that it’s nearly 2018 & the main storyline of the game in regards to the missing mayor and the blight or bad luck That apparently hits the town every 40 years WILL NEVER BE FINISHED?!. LDW games first drew my attention BECAUSE of the puzzle/storyline entanglement like in all the Virtual Villagers games. Why even have the mayor mentioned if they never cared or planned to tell the WHOLE story???.Version: 0.7.14

Good game, but it gets annoying. A LOTLike the title I wrote above, this game is very fun but super annoying! I wait every day to be able to adopt kids, and they are never there. The music is very gloomy (I don’t know if it gets better over time or if it changes when the town is pretty enough) and I can never watch an add at the movie theater thing when it even says NOW PLAYING. I don’t get it. I’ve had this game for a while now and I can’t adopt any kids when I used to be able to adopt them on like the second day of me playing. It is also really hard to find bugs. Bad luck maybe? I don’t know if I have to do something before I can get these things but if I do, I am so sorry 😅. Thanks for reading this petty? Complaint and I hope you have a good day! Flora-.Version: 0.7.14

They haven’t updated in a yearIve been playing about a month or two. It has started to get very boring. Once you collect everything in collections there’s not much point in playing..Version: 0.7.14
