App Store Metadata Snapshot
What It Did
Build your own city as the new mayor. Create residential, commercial, and industrial zones. Build parks and recreation spots. Respond to crime and disasters. Watch your city come alive! No microtransactions or long wait times! Everything is unlocked and rewarded through gameplay. Pocket City re-imagines classic city building simulation gameplay for iOS devices. Note: Landscape and portrait mode can be toggled in the settings menu during gameplay, or by tapping the icon at the top right of the start screen.
What the Data Can. And Cannot: Show
The release and rating fields are useful screening signals. They are not evidence about a developer's motives, active users, revenue, or current search demand.
Release Recency
The latest release date in CloneChart's record is 2022-11-12. Verify the live App Store listing before relying on it.
Aggregate Rating
The stored listing reports 4.7 stars from 5,122 ratings. That total is cumulative, not a measure of recent activity.
Listing Context
The record identifies Games as the category and Codebrew Games Inc. as the developer. It does not prove present availability in every storefront.
Maintenance Context Is Unknown
Public listing metadata does not explain release decisions. CloneChart does not infer abandonment, a broken app, or an addressable audience from release age alone.
What a Builder Can Evaluate Next
Available Signals
Rating history, release age, category, listing copy, and screenshots can help frame product research. None of those fields alone proves demand or commercial viability.
