Reviews for Townscaper

This is a great relaxing game that I could play for hours every day. I wish there was a way to have different grid patterns though e.g. squares and circles as the one is unpredictable.I also wish there were different building designs and a way to add my own little details (trees, bushes, bins etc) it would be cool to see boats in the water if I built a certain thing that resembles a harbour and have wooden docks to build out to the water. I would like to see people walk around as well as farm.

This game is very pretty and easy to use. I particularly like to build large, stand-alone buildings. My only problem is with the kind of random pattern the pieces are laid out in. I think there could be so many more applications to the game if there were more structured patterns, like a grid and/or hexagonal option.

The game is pretty good. Especially if you want to play it where ever you go. On the other hand, there are 2 Problems that each remove 1 star of my rating on this game. First off, the game is really laggy and the procedural generation it has is slow. Second off, the game when I press on the screen thinks I want to remove blocks when in reality, I don't. (What I'm saying is that it is really inacurrate) In conclusion, it would be better if you have a controler; over all, it is good.

Wonderfully simplistic, and yet there is a certain freedom within that simplicity. I love it! The only things I would add would be larger and taller maps, and maybe additional themes to skin the town with. Maybe little Pagoda looking buildings, or Adobe houses or something. But yeah, bigger maps would really be cool. I'd love to make an endlessly sprawling townscape. Ooh, and maybe a first person option to go wander around your creations.

Really enjoy this game (toy). From fun animations to learning how blocks interact on the unusual grid, there's much to discover and enjoy. I've followed this since I saw an imgur post by the dev, but knew I wouldn't play it enough on PC. Having it on mobile is perfect. My wife and I have taken turns crafting parts of our own little town. Technically, the app has run super smooth with no hiccups or crashes.

It's a satisfying game. But the lack of customization can be frustrating, especially for the price. I wish I could pick the shape of the blocks I am putting down a little more or like where I put windows and poles or fences. Being able to add greenery or animals/people would also be cool instead of just buildings.

This game is less of a "game" and more of a zen like builder. I fully expected to play this game for 10 minute sessions, but here I am planning sessions for MULTIPLE HOURS, just getting lost in the world I'm shaping. Only thing is I wish there were tiny people in these towns and not just pigeons. But that's just a minor thing but it would really add to the experience.

This is an addicting little game, where you get to build a world of your own. While fun and engaging, after about 15 minutes of gameplay, it gets boring and I stop playing. I feel that the game could use some more life to it. I hope there will be an update that will allow you to let people run around and place fences, and playgrounds, markets, cars, bridges, you name it! Overall, this is an amazing game and I highly recommend! Please add this update I will edit my review to 5 stars :)

ASMR gold. But I do wish for a few improvements. It would be so nice to have natural elevation like rocky ground. And park-like space to add. Trees & field & farm. Plaza & market stalls. And then have little people to wander the streets as you make them. Just randomly. And shop faces too. I know... it's a lot. But it's such a satisfying game with no objective except to build, I envision it to be more 'complete' with more that just cute pigeons.

Great game, this game has a beautiful art style. All you have to do is pick a color and build, the code will do the rest for you. Want a garden? Just make a building with a big space inside and there you go! Want a hanger through two buildings? Just make two buildings close enough and there you are! This european style game is definitely worth the money! If creativity and beauty is not your thing, I'm sorry. A must do game!

I have wanted something like this for a long time - the ability to just create and grow a little city. No manufacturing, no waiting for money, no disasters or anything other than just building. I have spent a lot of time with this and love it. Tip for newbies: You can long-press on parts of multi-story buildings to delete pieces and create archways and structures on stilts.

Relaxing and engaging. I wish there were more things to unlock, maybe new building types or other animals, or even people, and that there was a way to lay multiple tiles at once. But I adore the look and the simplicity, and that you don't have to do anything in particular -- no quests, no materials to gather or buy, no random NPCs asking you for things. It's lovely.

A great way to occupy yourself and kill a bit of time. Once you figure out the recipes for stairs, floating platforms, and courtyards it can be really cool to create new cityscapes. I like to play while I'm listening to podcasts before bed! I would love to see the city with more life. Maybe people walking around or going in and out of buildings? Boats would be really cool to see moving around too. I always wish the maps were a bit bigger. I hope the devs plan on updating at some point!

Wow, this is such a fun game and/or digital toy. Only learned about it recently on other platforms and was excited to see it release on mobile. So many interesting little towns can be made. Intuitive, simple, relaxing, and can jump in or out whenever you please. I'd like to see this concept expand to include landscapes, mountains, forests, deserts, etc while retaining the city element. What an absolute blast! Thank you.

Very beautiful and fun game. It can feel lonely in a way though and I don't find myself wanting to play it for long periods of time. An option to add little people would be great. I'd like to add people in one by one and maybe grow a village, but also I could see them working like the birds do. If the devs want to add more things, there's so much potential. Boats, trees, more animals, different architectures, and different base structures would all be intuitive extensions.

Wonderful and therapeutic game. The tapping to build is so nice. The sky bridges and tower shapes are really nice! But you are so limited by the grid. I hate the random shapped areas. I wish there was a way to change the type of grid to be square, round, random. I also wish there was different material types. Like stone, wood, glass for the buildings and Sand, grass, stone, and brick for the floors. Adding little people would make it feel less lonely. 4 stars for being amazing!

Beautiful, simple, enjoyable. Enough control to build, not too much to make it complex. Procedural generation is fun to discover. A bit limiting, and lonely without little people. Gets a bit repetitive. Frustrating controls. I wish I could set 1 finger to pan, and 2 to rotate. I wish that the camera rotated around the point you touched, not the center of the screen. I wish it would support a double tap + drag to fully support one handed play. Would make a world of difference in ergonomics.

This is one of the best things I've ever purchased, there is no objective or achievements, and there isnt any purchaseable items or colors or anything, you have 16 colors, a infinite grid with interesting and odd shapes, and your imagination. And you can find little fun things you can make, like lighthouses,parks and xfountains. I only have one thing that I can say is wrong with this game, and its that no little peoples spawn in. Stuff like birds and butterflies spawn in, but no humans.

Very very cute and relaxing. The sounds are very good, and it's a very cozy game. My only complaints are that I wish you could switch between gound types. (Like changing pavements and maybe just laying out plain grass or gardens) and maybe a color wheel for the buildings. I love this game though, worth every penny. The only thing I would want is more colors, and ground types. I love the stone paths, but I want different kinds. I would also really like it if builds were more than stone.

The artwork is beautiful and the simplicity of just tapping and building is wonderful. That being said, you are so incredibly limited. You can only use so much of the grid and you can only build so much on your given grid section. Things that would make this game a 5 star game: unlimited building blocks, unlimited grid, selectable grid type (round, square, randomized (the current default)), and a way to see your creation in first person view would be amazing as well.
