loved the graphics, but the gameplay gets boring fairly quickly. i had fun, but i don’t feel the urge to come back to it. maybe i’m just not creative enough to tap into its full potential.

Townscaper is not a bad game, technically speaking, its a great game with its wonderful sound design , it's easy to us UI and it's very simple controles.
