Pixel Plex: City Builder

Pixel Plex is a really fun game that lets you experience the joy of working with a group up to 40 people to create a fantastic city creation! I find this game addicting and I honestly love playing it BUT... You are given one plot of land in the beginning, and to buy one more plot of land is EXHAUSTING. It’s like a task inside a task to get another task done. It’s ridiculous how slow the game progress is, with getting resources and money used to build things to increase income. I would appreciate if the developers would find a way to get resources much quicker so buying more land wouldn’t be such a pain! Overall, I give this addicting game 4/5 stars, only because of the slow progress. Other than that, a very fun game!

This is one of the most simple, but greatest games I have played in a very long time. When I first got the game, I thought it was just going to be kind of a clash of clans game, but I was in for a big surprise. The game is all about making an amazing city, as if it is real life with actual city donations. It’s also very realistic because it’s hard to start a company but after a while, it gets easier, and this game hit it nailed it right in the head. One of the things I want added to the game to make it more realistic and harder to succeed, is natural disasters. So at least every month or so, a natural disaster would occur and you’ll have to fix some, not all, buildings. I also want more monthly updates with more levels and buildings, making basically impossible to ever win, although you can also expand. But otherwise, your game is great and keep up the work, and check in more with your game of Mafia :)

When I first downloaded this game, I had no idea what to do. However, when one of my neighboring players suggested I download Reddit and Discord to be more connected to the Pixel Plex community, I felt like i became part of a small, but growing gaming community with all different kinds of backgrounds. From actual business owners, to other college students, and other backgrounds we play to build a city in the spirit of competition against other cities, or just to socialize and have fun with all the special features. In addition, we have direct contact to the developers on Discord to make suggestions for them to implement features in the game for our own benefit. What separates this game from other app games is the strong relationship with the developers, and their hard work to make the game fair and fun. Personally, my city is shooting for the top in the leaderboards 🙏🏻😁. Watch out Empty Peachville! 😈

This is a great concept and I like the base game, but it does need a little tuning to the economy system. It takes too long to gain resources at the moment. It also would be nice if they had something for those city tiles that are next to water. I’m on an island and now I can’t trade workers with people. Maybe be able to build a dock or something? It would also be nice to see the shares market in more detail, such as how many total shares are sold and when the most active time of day is. Otherwise, fun game, just needs some improvement and polishing.

After a day with Pixel Plex I’m updating my review. First - this game is an great concept. It could be an awesome economy sim built around a city builder framework. I love how everyone builds their own blocks, but also contributes to the entire city. The idea that we can vote for mayors and the mayors themselves have the opportunity to change policies within the world we all work in is great. However the game progress is frustratingly slow. Don’t get me wrong I expect there to be timers in a FTP game, however the current experience really prohibits progress because everyone in the city is resource starved which basically means the economy is stalled out. Maybe in time this changes, but as building a become more expensive to build and revenue generating doesn’t seem to scale properly I feel like the game progress will stall out forcing people to abandon the game. I really want to like this game. It’s well designed and has a unique concept with a huge potential to be addicting. I wish the devs could figure out a way to make the basic gameplay fun and engaging while still being able to offer iap to line their pockets.
