Is the contest same as the earlier ones in terms of winners being chosen for best reviews or is it randomized this time?

I_am_Red · Oct 3, 2011

Well, actually this is the best review contest as well. But as far as I can judge, everyone really liked the game for iPad and were doing good reviews eagerly.

I truly adore this game, it really teaches you something about the building of cities; especially when it comes to fiscal management, borrowing funds and soaring into debt.
I find it amazing when you seep into debt that the city still manages to grow even when you've gone over the debt limit; at this stage is quite enjoyable to watch your debt stack.
I definitely recommend this game! It is a true time filler, one you can never put down!

This game is pretty packed and great for such a small package. The graphics is great. The music is very relaxing. The gameplay plays like any other city sims game but less the hard part. It's pretty easy to learn how to play and master the game. The tutorial really helps a lot. I love how easy you can accomplish each mission with ease. You just need to press a mission or "New Venture" and simply press what building, item or task written there and it will automatically take you to that building, item, etc. without you going to the build menu to search that building, item, etc. There are plenty of building to build. Manage your own Country the way you want it. If you are looking for an easy to play and noob friendly great city sim game, this is the game for you. Definitely worth playing.

I was blasted away by the ipad version of this game. It truly does require more attention because of the copious amount of detail and awsomeness. I've never ever played a sim as deep as MyCountry on any idevice, computer and even console. Plus the iAP is so affordable, its not like other games where you have to pay 40$ to build a tower or so. The game is free, try it, whats the harm? And if you love it so much, you should buy the IAP and support the devs so they can make more updates to this great game!

My Country is a very well made game, with very realistic and lively graphics and upbeat, happy music. It is not very hard to learn the game. The tutorial guides you through the beginnings stages in creating your “dream city,” but the guidance does not stop there. As your city grows, the game shows you what to do next in upgrading your city through the “New Ventures,” which, for me, was very convenient. The “New Ventures”, however, does not stop you from customizing and making your city your own. It became frustrated at times when the items I needed to hire a person were not available, but it showed me in a broad sense how the real world works. I recommend this game for people who enjoy these types of games, especially that it’s free. Even if you aren’t a fan of these types of games, you may find yourself hooked on this game for a while. The only thing I would change is if the game had a help button. Aside from that, it’s a great game.

Great Game now fits in your pocket

Four days ago I discovered My country for Ipad,my very first attempt at playing a Sim game....... I can't stop playing it I'm one day away from getting the "special building" and I can't wait. I don't know if this is how it is with other Sim games but this one is incredible. Now that its on the iphone I can sneak it with me to work to play ( do you know how hard it is to hide an Ipad)
The controls are simple(plus they start you off with a tutorial) you can just pick up and play no long drawn out procedure you simply buy the item you want (house, business, school etc) build it, then hire the required people to work there (police for police station) its that simple the game shows you exactly who and what you need for each place you buy

You earn money from houses from the tenants living there depending on the size and how many people live there you can upgrade your properties and make more more off them.The real money however comes from launching contracts with different businesses operating in your country the bigger and more expensive the office or building the more profits you can make cha ching

Spend your Country-Bucks wisely and you can open buildings instantly without the regular requirements,if you run out there's IAP's to buy more.But here's my best reason for recommending this game ......Its your country, you can do as you please you can make a beautiful houseing development area or fill it with parks, restaurants cinemas factories or save up and buy the World Trade Center

I'm building my own little new york complete with skyscrapers high rise buildings stock exchange the works, but that just my country, go build your own

Umm... Wouldn't it be fair if the winners were chosen randomly? :/ You'd get much more reviewers.

dreadnok · Oct 4, 2011

Have you ever noticed how "random" always seems to be the same group of people I don't think anyone would be happy if the random winner never even played the game and just wrote "me likey"

best review works for me

Yeah well if it had to have at least 10 sentences. And yeah, it's always the same winners, that's why it would be fair to have randomized winners... :/

Reviewed by Chen Ling on U.S. store.

I have played many simulation games about creating a town or a country. But after playing My Country: build your dream city, I realize that this one is the best of all till now. All buildings, surroundings, decorates, signs, green plants are realistic. The graphics are very good. You can build whatever as you like if you have developed the country good and have enough fund. You can build office builidngs, energy stations, bus transits, skyscrapers, parks, etc. In order to develop your country well, you must develop economy, industry and expand your populations.

The game is FREE to play. You can develop it as you like. It's YOUR country. You can be a real President in this country. Prosper it or ruin it, you have the power. Why not grab it now?

Another well deserved 5-star review on the US store as Heliotropist

I was surprised to see just how well the interface had been ported over to the much smaller screen on the iPhone/iPod. Excellent job guys.

Fantastic City Building Sim for the iPhone
My Country is one of the finest city building games on the iPhone, if not the best. There are numerous freemium variants on the city building formula on the appstore, some going for a medieval theme while others do a cute theme, but My Country channels the classic Sim City motif down to a tee. It's hard not to be completely smitten with the setup and art when you first launch the app if you're a fan of Sim City. Everything from the buildings, to the cars and people moving about town to the scenery is a visual delight. But the polish in presentation does not stop there. One of the biggest hurdles when playing a city management game is the interface, and this is where My Country wins most of its points. the interface is an absolute breeze to use even with the limited space available on a 3.5" screen. The developers have managed to utilize this space in an extremely efficient and clean manner. Whether you want to add new buildings, hire new people or just check up on your current status, everything is immediately and easily available to you without any clutter. Furthermore, all the text is sharp and very easy to read which is very important in sim games. Adding to all this is a nice relaxing soundtrack.

Your Country is basically a 4x4 grid area, where every square in the grid can house one city/village/town. Your job is to build new businesses (everything from factories to corporate house and service industries), residential blocks, transportation, utilities and even some gorgeous landmarks to beautify your Country. My Country adds the concept of hiring people to run businesses, and every person you hire needs a certain number of tasks to be completed before you can hire him. These tasks can vary from setting up new residential areas to upgrading existing business centers. This adds huge depth to the already vast city management game. Doing all of these tasks requires in-game dollars, which are constantly generated by your businesses. Every task has a set time it will take to complete, but it can be sped up using more dollars or CountryBucks, the iAP currency which is also rarely available in-game. As your city grows you can expand to the nearby grid squares for a hefty price. As with any freemium game, the need for iAPs becomes more and more demanding as the game goes on, but if you're only a casual player you should be able to check in to your Country every now and then and still maintain a decent progress. If you do go the iAP route, a daily discoverable Red Ruby item helps you by adding 30% to your purchased amount of dollars or CountryBucks.

All in all, if you're interested in freemium games, city building sims or great iPhone games in general you absolutely must try My Country today. It's a beautiful timesink that will have you hooked most certainly.

Seeing how well the HD version was, I proceeded to download and tried it out on the
iPhone 4. It work better than I had expected despite the smaller screen estate. Posted
a review in the US iTunes store under agleung. Thanks for contest.

Awesome sim for the price of FREE!

My Country: build your dream city is a polished sim game for the iPhone.
This is the iPhone version of the same game for the iPad. The Retina
Graphics makes this game super crisp. The trade off is the limited screen
estate. All that means is that you will be performing more panning to see
more of the playing area but the game play just as well on the iPhone.
It begins with helpful tutorials and the game is very easy to learn. There
are detailed graphics with animations and a soothing background music.
You can build really awesome looking cities with some patience. There
are homes, business buildings, taxi stands, bus stops, post office,
factories, medical facilities, post office, police stations, fire departments,
many different parks, fountains, power plants, and even some unexpected
"seasonal" items to be built. Adding buildings may require professionals,
which in turn may require acquiring certain items. The lack of CountryBucks
may hinder progression. However even without any in-app-puchases, the
game progresses along relatively quickly as I was able to hire an
entrepreneur, a postal clerk, a taxi driver, a CNC machinist, and a CEO
during the time used to write this review. There are constantly dollar signs
popping up for you to collect income and experience points.

Having played My Country on both my iPad and now the iPhone, I wonder
if it would be possible to make it so you can play the same game on both
your iPhone and iPad and be able to sync the progress across once iCloud
goes live.

If you would like to try an excellent city sim game that is easy to get started
and enjoy, this one is practically risk free as it is FREE with no ads.

(5/5)
