Can I rotate buildings?

No, it's not possible to rotate buildings in Forge of Empires.

Why not?

Gameplay challenge: The inability to rotate buildings is an intentional design choice. It adds an extra layer of difficulty and strategy to city building – more like solving a puzzle.
Technical limitations: Buildings are only animated from a single angle. Adding a rotate function would require reworking and re-animating every building in the game, which would be extremely time-consuming. We prefer to invest that time in new features instead.

If you’re struggling with space in your city, consider selling unused buildings or reorganizing your layout to optimize efficiency.
