Update:
I put this one away (for nearly a year) and came back and I'm not disappointed. Love all the updates, game is much more polished and is still one of my top 5 fav games of all time. Just waiting for a port to my ipad pro and I'll have gotten 4 sales out of me alone.
Soundtrack is beautiful as always and game play wonderful! Perfect!

I'm not going to give you a bad review. I didn't know it was just one person creating this game. So for that I'll give you a pass, but you really should hire some help to answer support requests and talk to your community.

I don't play with a controller, I felt the keyboard is what made the first one interesting and therefore it took me a full 10 min to figure out how to get the game to even play. That screen that says your working out the bugs should pop up before you get into the game so player knows, no mouse support.

That being said, I was a little overwhelmed without that mouse and key support and some of the keybinds are natrual. Enter really should be the default button for entering, not the space bar. Yes I know, I can remap them, but wow...

Looks like once you've gotten things ironed out, this will be another hit for you. HIRE MORE PEOPLE so you can work and not have to respond to players. As you know players on Steam are already crazy, lol. So don't give them a reason. I recommend those that cannot wait patiently for bugs to be fixed, wait before picking this one up. The rest of you, buy and then put it away for a few weeks. Come back to a lovely polished game.

Now THIS is how you do a simulator! Simulator fans rejoice...the perfect police simulator (with an 80s flair) has come! I was so happy to see this released so close to my birthday, so I bought it as a present to myself and I'm so happy I did! I'm madly in love with this game!

If you loved the simulators of days gone by where you had fun tasks to do (many) and a good story, and may colorful characters, this is the game to you. Also love the homages to all things 80s. I just about died when I saw the references to Alien and Back to the Future. ...subtle..but awesome. Great job guys! Only an hour in and I already know I will play hours more!

Don't Starve (Don't Starve Together also) is one of an elite few on my favorite games list. I caught the game somewhere on the internet when it was a beta iOS title and it was running via an emulator of some sort. I was instantly in love and kept telling people about it. But they thought I was crazy and said no one wants to play a game like that, sounds like too much work. Wrong they were! (Channeled a bit of Yoda there)
It's in my top 5 favorite games of all time. It's on an even more elite list of mine. I've purchased this game, no less than 6 times (possibly more). I bought Don't Starve for both my PC and my iPad (sometimes you're stuck somewhere you don't want to be. Nothing like pulling out your iPad at the Drs Office and playing some DS. Parents LOVE when they see me, because their kids crowd around to quietly watch...and occassional adult too). I've bought the game numerous times as gifts for other people, including my own daughter (we even did a version of Hard Knock Life (It's a Don't Starve Life) about the game.
I rarely if ever buy a game more than once and for more than one console, unless I LOVE a game. I dare say I will still be playing this game when I'm a dottering old grandmother. Telling my grand kids..now THIS..this is how you make a good game. Watch and learn kids..watch and learn. Highly recommended!

I absolutely adore this game! I have not found one thing I dislike or can complain about. From the graphics to the soundtrack (Love the music when they are about to try to come overrun your kingdom. It's beautiful and does instill a bit of fear and sense of dread deep in the pit of my stomach). Great job guys. It's good to be Queen. (Okay I have one complaint. Can the Queen have a sword?! I'm just that kind girl, to handle her business on horseback!)

I bought this game by accident and played it...it scared me. Nothing scares me, not a scary kinda girl. I LOVE it. But I've been too scared to play again. I'm building my courage. I think a screwdriver by my side in the real world, while I play should be enough to get me back in there.

I havent even played it. I saw it and bought it. Already know it'll be awesome. Will update with a proper review later.

**Update**

While I LOVE the snow, I do wish cities would cycle through other seasons. I hope that's in the works. But one thing Cities is lacking in is disasters. Either they don't have them or I've not seen them. We need some traffic pile ups, avalanches, tornatoes, floods..something. I am all for relaxing game play but need more challenge than balancing the budget all the time.

The game is still very beautiful, still fun to play, just needs a little more. If you gotten this game and the DLCs I recommend it. This is one of that last TRUE simulators around.

One of the best simulators I've played in a while. I love charts, graphs and micromanaging. I actually yell at my little employees. Only thing missing is the ability to flip your desk when you fire them. LOVE this game!

I hate this stupid <bleep bleep> game. I hate it! <said as she's been up 12 hours playing> Curse you all for making this game that I cannot stop playing! I hate it...so um...when's 3 gonna be available?

What more can I say, I LOVE this game. Love it. #Addicted

Like everyone, I'm impressed with the level of detail of when dismantling the car, but the game itself..boring to anyone except someone who does this for a living. It is a GAME so it's missing things that make it a true simulator. No angry customers or budget for keeping the place running. Customers coming back to say you didn't put a screw or a bolt back...accidents there in the garage..challenges, maybe you get to go to Nascar and have to SPEED repair cars. There needs to be a clock period. Where you quote a customer a time to pick up so you have to work a little faster. And for the love of god please allow us to add our own music..itunes play list..something.
Hearing the sound of the wratchet (may have spelled that wrong) definitely did take me back to being a little girl in the garage with my Papa but as a hard core simulator fan this falls short.
It plays more like a mechanic class than an actual game. I'll give it a good review just because you did an amazing job on the parts. But I won't be buying any more of your games ladies and gents. You need to take a look at other simulators and add a LOT MORE to make it a true Sim.
