SavePoint GamingOct 20259/10Amid the incessant stream of lucrative micro-transacting titles, Town to City’s staggering $20 price tag feels like a breath of fresh air. Coupled with the backdrop of a doom-and-gloom world, the fundamental objective of the game couldn’t ring truer: “Measure success not by gold, but by smiles.”

COGconnectedMark SteighnerJun 202680/100Although the campaign can be challenging, Town to City is not as exacting as other games in the sim genre. A distinctive art style, gridless building, and a relaxed, calming pace are central to the experience.

WayTooManyGamesDagmara KottkeJun 20268/10Town to City stands as an excellent recommendation for lovers of beautiful games. It’s a feast for both the eyes and ears. The game’s simple yet engaging mechanics make it consistently enjoyable, while allowing you to unwind after a long day. Performance issues are perhaps the only notable drawback I encountered. Still, I recommend it – not only to fans of cozy games or city builders, but to anyone who appreciates thoughtful, beautifully crafted experiences.
