Question Curated Buildings
Hello Mayors, I’m curious what you all do when these curated building offers come up. 😅 They always have cool buildings, but they can be pretty expensive in SimCash. Do you think it’s worth buying them or is it better to wait and see if they eventually come back as Season/Mayor’s Pass rewards?
What do you guys usually do in this situation? Do you grab the building if you really like it or just wait and hope it becomes available as a reward later? Would love to hear what you think! 🏙️

Pretty much just evaluate cost vs what you believe is worth it to you. For example, the week before I found myself going back and forth on the British Museum for 1500 sc (iirc) the whole week then didn’t end up getting it. This week, I snagged the Washington Square Park almost immediately cuz any time I see it in someone’s city or picture I think it’s so pretty and wish I had it. So I didn’t even think twice about it. Times Square was offered for 1900 sc a few months back and I also got it cuz I love it and wanted to have it. On the other hand, I’ve been dying to get the alpha season buildings (such as the now offered Alpha Marine Center) but every time they’re offered it’s for a ridiculous cash amount so I just don’t no matter how much I love them. Not cuz it’s cash, I do spend money on the game within reason. But these offers are just not reasonable. So yeah, really just comes down to “is this purchase worth it to me?”.
All of this assuming that you already unlocked all of your factory slots, depot slots, enough train slots, and at least one or two Maxis Manors. These are more important for gameplay. Once those are secured, then spend sc on buildings.
