My city is gone! [ Edited ]

[bgrimm989]

After spending countless hours and over $400 to build it up my city (level 31, pop. apx 180k happy citizens) is gone!!! After doing a clean up on my phone as I'd done before to cut down on game "lag" the game kept crashing on start up so I did a reinstall of the program thinking that my game (my city) would be fine since I logged in with Google Play and my progress was saved. But now every time I start the game it starts me over from scratch! My progress (my accomplishments) still show up in google play. I had a facebook friend who's city showed up in the game too so think I was logged in through there as well. What do I do to get my city back!?! Please help!

I just took someone's advice and played through the tutorial. It worked!!! Afterwards, well before it was even finished really I was able to select settings and log back in to Google Play. I was afraid that the new city would overwrite my saved one but it gave me the option to load my old city which I did with hesitation, still fearful but low n behold, it worked!!! CITY SAVED! :-)
