Compared to Machi-ing Maker 3, this game is pretty on par. I love the bus system, highways, and shrubbery implementation, along with the variety of sizes of buildings. One main thing I wish stayed was interaction with the town. I would've loved to been able to enter buildings and talk to residents and receive feedback to earn extra points, but this isn't the case for Machi-ing Maker 4.
What would've made this game a little more special would be building varieties. At first, building your town, you are given a smaller selection of buildings, so basically everything looks the same for a while until more things unlock hours down the line. 3 of the same TGI Fridays, 3 of the same 7/11. At least provide a different layout or look, I guess? Like instead of a 4x5 building, you can choose a 3x3 two story building or whatever. This game is too old to be wishful of, it didn't even have an update after releasing.
Otherwise, it's enjoyable and pretty relaxing. I was able to play this while preparing my dinner.
