What players say

Players are deeply split on Skid Cities. Many call it dead and abandoned, pointing to a developer who went silent for months and a graphical update that broke saves. Others enjoy the unique overworld and underground layers and say recent updates show promise. Performance is a major pain point, the game chugs, leaks memory, and corrupts larger cities.
