  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are generally described as visually appealing and cute, with a colorful aesthetic that stands out in the city simulation genre. While some users appreciate the graphics as better than expected, others note that the visuals can feel shallow or reminiscent of a casino theme. Overall, the graphics contribute positively to the game's charm, despite some minor bugs and concerns about monetization.

    • “Summary: nice game, nice graphics and it really catches you.”
    • “Building upon the city simulation genre, Global City stands out with its visually appealing graphics.”
    • “I enjoy the graphics.”
    • “The game visuals and the game itself are incredibly shallow... think of them as the too-bright, colorful, thin plastic cabinet dress theme on a poker machine at the casino.”
    • “Just not my type of city builder; cute graphics though.”
    • “The graphics aren't too harsh either.”
  • gameplay
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay in the game has been criticized for being repetitive and slow, with many players feeling that it lacks depth compared to other titles in the genre. While it features solid city-building mechanics and appealing visuals, the reliance on microtransactions and the absence of meaningful progression without payment detracts from the overall experience. Players express frustration over the game's inability to refresh mechanics for returning users, leading to a sense of stagnation.

    • “While not revolutionary, global city offers solid city-building mechanics.”
    • “Urban planning meets dynamic gameplay; visually stunning but lacks depth when compared to genre staples.”
    • “At the time of writing this review, I have 52.5 hours of gameplay.”
  • monetization
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players labeling it a "cash grab" due to high in-game purchase costs and slow progression. While some users found the game enjoyable without spending money, others expressed frustration over the pressure to make purchases and the overall monetization strategy.

    • “Great game, keeps you busy and even though there are in-game purchases, I didn't have to buy any to advance.”
    • “Game was fun, even spent some money on in-game purchases.”
    • “This game is a hardcore cash grab.”
    • “The game is a quick cash grab from the developers.”
    • “Game is just a cash grab; you are strangled by low storage and high expansion costs.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and quickly boring, particularly due to the manual clicking required for resource farming and the limited number of farm spots. Many reviewers express frustration with the game's progression system, suggesting it leans towards a pay-to-win model, where spending money becomes necessary to avoid a monotonous experience after a certain point.

    • “Farming materials isn't automatic; you have to click every time you want your mines to be working, be it sand or ore. This isn't bad in the first few minutes, but after level 10 it becomes annoying, especially since you only have 2 farm spots for each machine. Any additional farm spots have to be purchased with cash. The game gives you a little in the beginning, but I don't see this developing further than a pay-to-win enterprise.”
    • “Played for 2.5 hours but noticed way earlier that you're going to reach a point where you'd have to start spending money to progress at a decent rate, or you're in for a very tedious and boring ride.”
    • “Gets to be a tedious bore quickly.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is criticized for its lack of depth compared to genre leaders like SimCity, with players experiencing frustrating issues such as disappearing items for upgrades and missions. Additionally, the game's currency system is seen as inadequate, making it difficult to accumulate enough resources for necessary upgrades.

    • “However, it lacks depth in storyline compared to genre leaders such as SimCity.”
    • “I'm waiting 2 hours to create parts to start the train mission, but when the details were ready, I took it and found the warehouse was empty, and the plant too.”
    • “Citycoins, the other currency which you can only get by trading, ship/plane/train quests, town hall, events, and here and there small trivial amounts, does not rack up to the extravagant costs needed to upgrade.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is characterized by a playful blend of urban planning and comedy, likening the experience to a lighthearted, slightly tipsy version of SimCity. Players can expect a whimsical take on city-building that injects fun and laughter into the gameplay.

    • “Urban planning meets comedy club; Global City is SimCity's hilarious, slightly drunk cousin!”
    • “The humor in this game is so clever and unexpected, it keeps me laughing every time I play.”
    • “I love how the game uses witty dialogue and funny scenarios to make even the most mundane tasks entertaining.”
  • music
