Sandbox Mode
I enjoy this game. But IMHO the devs have got to let Sandbox be Sandbox. I play Sandbox because I do not want to be hindered by the Story. Please, I do not want to meet minimums, I do not want to chase Ghosts. I do not want to play Campaign Story in Sandbox. Please let Sandbox be FREE PLAY like every other game I have ever played. If Sandbox is an option, then let it be Sandbox. Thanks in advance.

I agree that Sandbox is a lot like Career in this game, but I believe the devs are aware of that and working on making it more sandboxxy.

Thanks for response. I hope they do. I play Sandbox to be creative. I'll play Story if I am in the mood for the story. Thanks again.

Sandbox mode used to be just that, no story line or quests but it got broken in one of the patches and has not been rectified, no surprise there!

I agree, I was really disappointed by finding out that sandbox mode was actually like story mode!

Hello again, I thought to buy this game. But I'm disappointed after reading everything about glitchy sandbox mode because I was thinking to buy the game only to play in sandbox mode. I don't care about story or contracts or points/needs etc whatever this game offers. You've played this game and I've seen your negetive review ae well. So please tell me is the sandbox still broken? I mean I can't design and furnish rooms completely freely with every option unlocked?

I haven't played this game for a very long time but I doubt that sandbox ever got fixed, the DEVs have abandoned this game completely now but they never much cared for it from the start anyway. The post before yours is dated September this year and they are saying sandbox is still broken, if that is the case then it never got fixed and never will now. I'm sure there are other games out there more worthy of your attention and money!

Thank you for your reply. Yeah I myself also kept reading more topics in this forum and looks like the sandbox is really not fixed. I know how in depth review you can give so I thought to ask you. I completely believe you and in that case-- I don't think I can buy this. Damn, the game's graphics looked promising but why are some DEVs so careless? Well, good bye to this game and thanks a lot to you once again...

I can confirm as I too picked it up recently should have read all the negatives first, it is indeed not fixed.

There are so many visual glitches, areas that don't paint or floor wont cover. It still plays well for the decorating aspect if you can over look walking through visual mesh but still super glitchy in other places flickering windows lights still on when no light it in room.

You have to unlock stars to get better tools and more furniture options you start with basics like you do in career mode and unlock more as you get the stars 1-5. Basically it's still career mode but you can turn off a couple of features when you set up the sandbox so it's not as tedious.
