Happy Sunday everyone! We hope you're excited for a new game update! This update really focuses on making neighbourhood zones much more prominent and easier to access, alongside a variety of UI updates and bug fixes.

What's new?

World Map Improvements

Neighbourhood Zones are now easier to discover and navigate

  • When zoomed out on the world map, you’ll now see all neighbourhoods
  • When you are exploring, you’ll be able to see which neighbourhood you’re currently in
  • You can use the left and right chevrons to navigate between each one
  • When hovering over plots of land, you’ll now see how much it costs - or the lot details if owned - and the neighbourhood
  • Access the neighbourhood panel by clicking any of the labels or the new neighbourhood button - which includes the neighbourhood notice board, residents, mayoral elections, and more.
  • When you zoom in, you’ll now see borders for the neighbourhood you’re in!
  • Language used for the neighbourhood zone benefits is now consistent
