City Island Collections is a relaxing city builder

The game gives a very chill and relaxed atmosphere. It's great if you want to play something casually and have a sense of progression. Just be prepared to wait for a long time once you get the buildings upgraded to a high level. This is more of a game you play for 10 to 15 minutes at a time and then revisit later in the day. It's nothing something I would recommend to a hardcore sim city player. The game just lacks depth and choices to make it feel fun if you like more complicated and thought-provoking city builders. The doesn't really require much thinking at all.

  Trying to collect all the different card buildings is fun but also frustrating. Eventually you keep opening up packs of cards to try and get a new building, but you just keep getting duplicates. It's a very basic city builder with not a whole lot of options when it comes to customization. It feels like you're building just a generic city that many others will build as well. They are no options for different colors of buildings or anything to make your city feel unique. It's a good game for what it's worth because it runs smooth and has pretty good graphics. Things are kept simple to attract casual gamers. The game then puts timers on everything and encourages you to spend to speed up progress.
