Since then, Stålberg’s self-admitted “experimental ardour undertaking” has garnered crucial approval for its intuitive and enjoyable gameplay, making it really feel a bit like taking part in with LEGO. In contrast to different city-building video games although, there’s no actual goal outdoors of build up your city and chilling out together with your creations.
