I think for depth something else would be needed like maybe new tiles. But really when I talk about depth, I mean the player has to make interesting decisions, so maybe like a gamemode where you have a limited amount of moves could make the player think more about what moves to make

Thank you very much for this idea! I don't plan to add new tiles, I'm afraid that the game and the player will get lost in a flood of exotic mechanics. However, the idea of a mode with a limited number of moves seems like a banger to me! Based on player feedback, a campaign mode will be added as well!
I think you could add new tiles without the player getting lost in a flood of exotic mechanics. For example, you could have a set/type of levels that have a single additional tile (like a park that needs to have at least 3 houses around it or something you think would work better), and then swap that tile out for other tiles in other sets/types of levels. That way there is depth in that there is variety of mechanics, but they’re not all at the same time so they shouldn’t be overwhelming.
Just an idea! Love the game. :)
