I really wanted to like this game. I was told that I could play this game for free based on the advertisements but this is not a completely true statement. I've been playing a game everyday for over 2 months and I have been unable to unlock Uplander status which pretty much means I'm in a demo mode unless I want to pay real money. I've completed multiple missions but not received credit. I've been prompted to kyc but when I try to an error occurs.... I'll stick to Atlas Earth!

It's okay, the setup overall is okay. I feel there could be improvements, some including, a few filter options for nearby property search. Better explanation/directory on finding treasures. Tilia verification doesn't work, and web pricing doesn't work when it needs to pop up or foward me to those places. I'm still struggling to level up, I refuse to spend money on the game, I shouldn't have to. The overall opportunities in this game are amazing, but getting started is really difficult.

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. Could you provide more details about the Tilia verification and web pricing issues by contacting support@upland.me? Screenshots are highly appreciated. For leveling up without spending money, we recommend treasure hunting and completing missions, and our community is a great resource for tips.

It's a cool concept but it's almost impossible to start and play. All you do is sit there wandering around hoping to find a property you can afford. Most properties are way out of your price range unless you plan on spending real money. I haven't even been able to play the game properly because of the insane economy system. Every city is oversaturated with competition. The ads made it seem as if you could, "buy your hometown" this is false. The only places you can go are a few metropolitan areas
