How it feels
A calm, experimental building simulator where you carefully balance resources and watch your neighborhood evolve or decay.

What players say
Players praise the creative concept of balancing development and ecology on a single vertical block, but nearly everyone says the game was abandoned by its developers and feels unfinished. The interface is clunky, mechanics are poorly explained or contradictory, and the story mode is short with a showstopping save bug on one level.
