Comments on Designer City: Empire Edition for Android

★★★★★ Kindall Carter · Jul 18, 2026

I would love to see more service buildings, like police stations, fire departments, and colleges that match the other building themes as well. Right now there's only one design/theme, but they clash with the theme of my city.

★★★★★ ritika parmar · Aug 20, 2025

I love all the games of the designer city. And I play them all. It's one game that helps me relax. Just waiting for the next update.

★★★★★ Ravi “Ravi” · May 6, 2025

Good game 😁 but please less gold price of building 50 70 gold is so much reduced and make 20 to 30 gold

★☆☆☆☆ EE LING CHUAH · May 2, 2026

Email being hacked then forever unable to play and design. I use a new email to play.

★★☆☆☆ Mel Teodorini · May 21, 2025

As on designer city all other game players have disappeared. So all the friends I added, likes, all gone now. Cannot achieve challenge if no cities to visit. And please don't try and blame me, I was right in the middle of visiting cities, when they vanished for no reason. There's obviously an issue on your side. No I am not going to uninstall then reinstall, I've no doubt that I will lose everything if I do that, despite game play being saved automatically. Please fix this.

★☆☆☆☆ Brenda West · Dec 30, 2024

To start I have played a little of The first Designer City 1 and 3 already. At first, I was really excited about this version and understood it was going to take a while to build up my city. I understand how the game works. But this version takes vay to long to build up money you can barely keep the balance between having enough people in the city and enough people in jobs. The jobs do not make enough for you to plane out your city, keep enough utilities, and make money.
