It’s hard to create the biggest possible trailer tower without using auto snap and scaffolding. Take care when placing more blocks to get to a new tier, perspective, and physics matter. The game shows a faint outline after placing the first level of each building to show players how it can be expended. Stack enough trailers atop one another and you get a tower, which in turn has five tiers, getting increasingly more difficult to build without creating a disaster. Put a few apartments together in a particular way and you get a bigger version. Tinytopia’s big twist and unique element is a puzzle element linked to the buildings.

Players need to carefully consider building placement to create well-functioning neighborhoods. All the people living in a residential building need jobs, which can be provided by stores, offices, and factories. Airports, stadiums, and other major buildings are modular. These residential structures require services, from fire and police departments to schools, libraries, and parks. Citizens need houses or apartments or trailers to live in. Think of it as a city builder that’s been stripped down to its main elements. Regardless of the level, the core gameplay of Tinytopia is the same.
#TINYTOPIA REVIEW FULL#
A full sandbox is available for anyone who wants to recreate their real-life city or implement their perfect vision of one.

The game alternates between challenges based on the two, which gives it a good rhythm and makes sure players are looking forward to seeing what the next level has to offer. Weirder, he can also create communities that defy the laws of reality inside the more whimsical levels. Gamers become the all-powerful mayor that can transform a clump of buildings into Paris and other modern metropolises. The title takes the core ideas of city-building and emphasizes the puzzle elements, with a focus on accessibility, aiming to make the genre accessible to a wider audience.Īs is to be expected for the genre the narrative is pretty light.
#TINYTOPIA REVIEW PC#
I played the experience on the PC using Steam. Tinytopia was put together by MeNic Games and published by Mastiff. For my next trick, I need to build a community on a vinyl player. I need to crowd in a few more Victorian houses to achieve my secondary objective and then I will plop down another big building to finish the level. They can also enjoy the sight of important landmarks, like Alcatraz and a slightly tilted Coit Tower. I also spoil them with the biggest and most capable versions of the fire department, hospital, and police station. My version of San Francisco is clearly more crowded than the real world one, but I like efficient cities and the citizens in this virtual city do not get to vote me out of office.
