It also lacks modes of transportation, such as trains and cars. There are no differently-shaped blocks to allow you to build unique-shaped houses.

For one, it is impossible to create circular buildings. However, as expansive the creative possibilities that the game provides, it could use a few more customization options. Sure, the game has a multitude of small elements that make it hyper lively-such as seagulls on the roof, tiny Wellington boots on the doorsteps, and mailboxes-but it does not affect the gameplay. There are no people to check on and goals to meet like The Sims 4, and there are no turnips to purchase and friends to interact with like Animal Crossing. Unlike other simulation games, it does not require you to do anything other than build your town. If you feel like you’ve added a building that is not to your liking, you can destroy it by clicking right. Many of these details are randomized, but they add life to the town you’re making. It also adds ladders to go down the water and clothesline between buildings. It even adds gardens when spaces are enclosed. It can add terraces, arches, and bridges as you play. Players also need not worry about the details of the house they’re building since the game has a hidden algorithm that handles such details. To make your town colorful, the game provides a color palette. The third and fourth click will make the building rise. The first left-click on the water will build the foundation of your first building-clicking on the same spot a second time will build the house. From that canvas, you can start building your town. You start the game with a blank canvas of the blue sky and an empty sea.
