Max Tiles?
I'm going through my first run through of the game after the tutorial. Not sure what I started after the tutorial, but I've reached 8000 tiles and it says I need a consultant upgrade to build more. I've already unlocked the consultant and the influence upgrade for more tiles and floors. Everything is grayed out, because I think I've already built it or got it checked, I cannot see anything else I can unlock to build more. There's more I can unlock for other things like large casinos, large artwork, galleries and some more tenet types I can try out. I'd like to continue building past floor 103 to make room for more stuff I need, finish up all the contracts available and get as many achievements I can (I'm at 61), but now I'm stuck?

I've googled and I think I may be on a standard map (I can't remember what I selected), which has a max of 8000 tiles....
But I was hoping for some sort of completion...something to say I've accomplish a goal or finished my building.

Is there anything else I can do without starting over or am I done? What should I do next? I guess I've learned most the game mechanics and deployed most the tenet types to learn what they need and like, but there's more I'd like to do to this tower....what's the end game?

Thanks!

Hi,

these are the map limits:

Standard:

Max Height 60 - 120 with upgrade. Max amount of tiles 4000 - 8000 with upgrade. Max width is 70 Tiles


Narrow:

Max Height 80 - 160 with upgrade. Max amount of tiles 2400 - 5000 with upgrade. Max width is 32 Tiles


Wide:

Max Height 18 - 25 with upgrade. Max amount of tiles 3000 - 4500 with upgrade. Max width is 150 Tiles


Extra Large:

Max height 40 - 80 with upgrade. Max amount of tiles 6000 - 15000 with upgrade. Max width is 180 Tiles

About your play, limits depends from the map you choose. Also, scenarios have their own limits.

Ya, that's the post I found when I googled it...guess I'm on a standard map.

I was hoping for more information or options other than starting a new larger map....

Once you've maxed out, you've maxed out.

Thanks for a Developer response! I had a lot of fun with your game!

If I may, I'd recommend maybe making an End-Game DLC, maybe with some more goals or contracts and things that you can do with your finished tower. Also, it would be nice to know the tile limits on the maps before you select them.

Hi -

We probably won't be making any further content for this game - it came out over 5 years ago and after 6 DLCs and multiple platform ports, we moved on to our new game.

But very glad you enjoyed it - we're still very proud of Highrise and we still play it ourselves. :)

Happy New Year!
