Users express frustration with the game's shift to a mission-based structure, which they feel disrupts the initial balance and enjoyment of creating landscapes. The overwhelming presence of ads and a problematic UI update detracts from the experience, leading many to prefer a more open sandbox format over the current level-based approach.
“But then something flipped and now I almost only get triple tiles that make for hard fits and broken up terrains with all but impossible to fulfill missions.”
“It is now mission based, which would be fine since there is an option to continue play after completing the mission, but the UI update makes the game pretty awful.”
“Good game, but it would be significantly better as an open sandbox rather than a mission/level based world builder.”
