The review is total BS. She claims she's playing the Android version and then talks about visiting other Springfields.
While I have no argument with the bad review, in general. because there was a time when the game deserved it. I do have an argument with this reviewer. Clearly, she is just doing typical lazy reporting and reposting the comments read on Facebook or even this forum.
Read through the review and it is riddled with false statements. I doubt the person has even played the game (look at the part I quoted for an example).
I stopped reading after that.
There's absolutely no hint of a challenge within the game; you simply do as you are told. You're instructed when to build houses, plant trees, buy land, lay paving and so on. If Apu needs Tomacco for the Kwik E-Mart, you don't even get to figure out the solution for yourself (to build Cletus' farm and grow Tomacco).
A scrollable character menu on the left shows which tasks are currently available for each character, and you simply pick an option from a list. For each completed task you earn money and doughnuts, which are used to progress in The Simpsons: Tapped Out. If you're lucky, you might win some extra money and doughnuts with an Itchy & Scratchy scratchcard.
