User Reviews

Users praise Megapolis for its vast, deep city-building scope and nostalgic appeal, especially among long-time players. However, multiple reviews highlight persistent update bugs blocking play, confusing onboarding, and poor support. Monetization shifts and removal of daily rewards foster a pay-to-win perception, while extensive grinding and scarce resources frustrate free-to-play players. Some updates also erase progress or rewards. Overall, the game remains beloved by veterans, but many consider quitting due to these reliability, monetization, and guidance issues.
Pros
  • Very large, expansive city-building game with a wide range of buildings and systems.
  • Long-running title with nostalgic appeal and a dedicated base of veteran players.
  • Deep, multi-layered gameplay offering substantial content for players who invest time.
  • Rich variety of city-management elements (planes, trains, roads, etc) contributing to gameplay breadth.
Cons
  • Updates frequently introduce bugs that block play (stuck on intro/tutorial prompts, faulty prompts, crashes).
  • Monetization concerns: removal of daily rewards and a shift toward pay-to-progress feel with real-money purchases.
  • Significant grinding and resource demands make progression slow or require purchases or many in-game gifts.
  • Poor onboarding and confusing UI with limited guidance; lack of reliable support or community help (including difficulty deleting accounts).
  • Progress losses and nerfs after updates (lost buildings/rewards) undermining long-time players' efforts.

The game its self has turned into a micro transaction hellscape, to even upgrade 1 building you need 100, 50 megabux which can be bought with $$$, and to even do basic things you need "tokens" which require you to do more pay to win stuff, this game used to be "ok" until you added 10 INDIVIDUAL SEPARATE BATTLE PASSES
