If I would have known hiring helpers meant that I have to watch them sleep MID-DIG, then I would have not hired them, would rather lose them for a round than in the middle of a level.
Love the game, only bother is a limit of 3 quest at one time, would be nice if you can do some epic quest or something like that to get a chance to slap another quest slot (perhaps a quest that a mayor has to activate and have all his members contribute and have it take an exceeding large amount of days).
Note: I do know about the medallions, but giving a player am opportunity to get at least one more slot(perhaps at level 60+) would definitely help the higher levels without making a horrible imbalance along the way.
Best way for an easy beginning is those pot belly stoves that give you 2 gold bars a day. They definitely helped when the crisis mid game happens :).
Beat the game and still had a whole lot of fun doing it. Only thing is the "Train Star" Task, I am going to assume that you need to max out a star level developer to complete that challenge?
But regardless,
GREAT GAME
I think a screenshot button, or maybe a way for others (outside your city) to view your individual shop setup. Perhaps maybe a details stat button that we can view to see how the income of individual resources on an individual is coming and going.
You guys really need to address the bugginess of this game. It is a pretty decent game and the stuff about it is also awesome (for non payers and pay2win alike). Taking care of the random crashes or lag in certain levels would make this game a whole lot more enjoyable.
I understand you are going to update it when possible, but one thing I would like to suggest is other resource depots, it would make it a bit more interesting.
