Real Talk
This is the 6th City Evolution in 6 weeks. The cadence is now weekly: unlock properties, attach a regional modular structure to the paid bundle, repeat. The formula works — city evolutions drive marketplace activity (our Market Tracker data shows positive volume movement around most city evolutions). But the Rodizio Edition modular follows the same pattern as every other regional modular — no SU or Living Unit values disclosed at time of sale. You're paying $20 for a structure whose actual contribution to your neighborhood scores is unknown until after you buy it.
Worth noting: the Resident Score and Influence Score missions that these structures feed are currently auto-completed for Blossom Season due to Upland's own recalibration (April 8, 2026). Players are buying service structures to build scores that Upland has paused holding them accountable to. The score missions are scheduled to return in Genesis Season — but for now, the primary gameplay reason to build is paused while the sales continue.
