    I wrote directly on support and Yatin Balwani (creator of the game) sent me reply:

    Hello Mayor, thanks for getting in touch!

    As creator and caretaker of your very own city there are a number of ways for you to re-imagine, redesign and redevelop your cityscape.
    At no cost to you, basic roads can be demolished and re-drawn, and your existing buildings can be moved easily with a ‘tap, hold and drag’ finger movement. Where your hard-earned Simoleons have been spent on the purchase-cost of a building (like an upgraded factory or specialisation HQ, for example) you’ll even get a partial refund of the cost if you decide to knock it down! You can check the refund amount on the bulldozing confirmation pop-up. The only buildings you can’t demolish are government and commercial buildings, as those are just too useful to lose!

    Currently there is no way to restart your city, but I’ll be sure to pass your feedback to the team. Many thanks!

You can reset your city but it will literally take you to square 1.

All you need to do is delete the App; when gamecenter asks if you want your data keeping or removing select remove. Reinstall the game and done, you will be presented with the initial tutorial.
Hope that helps in some way

This is killing me... I'm connected to game center AND Facebook on iPad (the game i don't care for) and only Facebook on my iPhone (the game i've invested in and want to keep) -- thought I'd just be logging into Facebook to continue progress when I downloaded for iPad but clearly it's not that simple... so frustrating.

I have progressed well in my second game and I would it to be playable across multiple devices such as xbox playstation ps4.

    I am running into the same problems. I started a game on my ipad. My son started one of my phone. 

    Of course my son really messed up the game on my phone and My Ipad version is over 35000 people in 2 days. The problem i am running into is he loaded the phone to facebook and now i can't connect to facebook with my main city because it makes me choose. I have tried every article out there and nothing will solve this problem. 

    So why don't yall take 5 mins and put a feature to chose which one you want saved when you click to load facebook contacts on the game.

      I am having the same issue. My son played on my phone which connected it to fb and I started my own game on my iPad which I picked my fb one and he has the city all messed up n no money left so last two days I been trying to fix it but never enough money cause I can't help everyone with fire, power, water etc.... Mine I had it all before everything else and was doing good. I'm tired of sturglaing with he's....I am loving this game but not keep playing if I can't do my own city and hook it to my fb so I can also get the credit for my friends who play also. You do lose out on a lot if you don't know what to do at first also.
