This game is designed for one reason and one reason only, to get your money. And lots of it. You cannot grow your city in any decent amount of time without spending lots of real cash. As another reviewer stated, you spend about 5 minutes playing and then you either have to spend money or quit playing for the day. It's that ridiculous. I paid $9.99 to get $30 Sim Cash a day, but that gets you nothing in the game. I'm uninstalling after 3 days because this is such a joke.
