Hi guys, I've just played this game this afternoon on Facebook, through Mind Jolt games. I loved it and wanted to challenge my friends, as usual in Mind Jolt. After building up my town I failed 3 times and wanted to check my score. It was all gone!!
I've played it again and clicked on the eye.. and went to the start page!
That wasn't funny.
I hope it can get fixed soon..
I received e-mail from support but there's no registration key in message, in article 1: you're said
'1. Mark the registration key : ................'
no key word for me. Please recheck that I waiting to play this game now.
I got an idea for 1 I think..lol. how about the founding of america. Starts off with the Pilgrims, and ends as a free country of USA, in 1776. (or somewhere around there.) I see lots of building in there...lol.
