The game's graphics are generally praised for being beautiful, realistic, and detailed, especially in depicting buildings, vehicles, and environmental effects like day-night cycles and weather changes. However, some users find certain overlays intrusive and note the graphics could be more lively, with suggestions for improved animations and more 3D elements. While the visuals are considered good for a mobile city builder, some call for enhancements in resolution, zoom, and overall polish to match higher-end standards.
- “The game features six new islands, with excellent graphics, and lots of new buildings.”
- “I really like the graphics and the environmental conditions in this game; like the rains, day and night. In fact, this game is taking all my leisure time.”
- “The graphics are great, and it's great to finally have a game that you can play without having to put money in to advance or get special items.”
- “You can't even read your population because of a graphic that's in the way.”
- “Apparently, there's no way to see what you've built without these blinking graphic overlays that pester you to upgrade your buildings right from the moment they're built.”
- “Boring graphics, apart from vehicles there is hardly any animation...does not feel alive...no logic...upgrade is just for name, building will be the same after completion.”

The game's monetization relies heavily on frequent, intrusive advertisements, including pop-ups that often disrupt gameplay and can even trigger unwanted app downloads. While some players appreciate the opportunity to earn in-game currency through ads, the overwhelming volume and aggressive placement of ads—sometimes unskippable—has led to significant frustration, interruptions, and app crashes. Overall, the excessive advertising is widely viewed as detrimental to the game's enjoyment despite its strengths.
- “Best game ever! The graphics are very nice, and it reminds me of building cities in my childhood. This game is very interesting to build cities, and there are very few ads. I like this game very much . I give 5 stars.”
- “No ads.”
- “And no in-app purchase required at all.”
- “10 ads or popups to spend real money, all that within the first 1 hour of gameplay. Worst money grab intrusive icons all over the screen which actually blocks the game itself. Big greedy app.”
- “These recently added full screen video ads that pop up and take over every few minutes have ruined the game.”
- “Too many ads that pause the game abruptly. Quite annoying. Please fix this.”
