I decided to try some different games since candy crush and minesweeper have been go to’s for super long. I stumbled onto Atlas earth but it requires an ios and doesn’t allow web play. Someone mentioned upland so I made an account yesterday and its so incredibly frustrating. It seems like most people are there to make money by selling plots at a marked up rate (which is essentially a ponzi scheme if you’re not getting something out of it) I’ve read pages of tutorials but things aren’t making sense. Plus, my daily bonus card has disappeared and the bonus it “gave me” when the clock switched over never uploaded.

I feel like I’m doing something wrong and actual players could help orient me (their chat isn’t useful)

(Also, I’m not 100% sure I’m on the right server since I’m interpreting this as different city builder games rather than a game called city builders , so if I’ve posted in the wrong place I apologize and would love to be pointed in the right direction

Edit: probably going to abandon upland. Its one of those games people will enjoy most if they’re into finding cryptic pieces of game play off a 2001 interface and try to make money by being willing to lose money, in a psuedo game environment. Its not an investing or money making game like people will lead you to believe, and its not a fun game unless you’re into learning nooks and crannies from a boring interface and interested in doing math from a boring interface (I’m not against math, it all just feels like drawing people in for get rich quick schemes to fleece people of their money, rather than providing entertaining game play.)

My best advice is if you join treat it like a game and not a money making enterprise and watch out for game players who will fleece you to try to turn it into a money making enterprise.
