If you don't have nostalgia for this series, it's probably not worth your time (especially since there are three sequels to this on Steam, all with better gameplay loops), but it's basically fine, and it's certainly an original concept for a game. Also, you can definitely tell that this game and Build-a-lot 2 came out before the 2008 Great Recession hit.
My piece of childhood gaming! I loved it, and i love nowadays too.
Game is fun and easy to pick up, game tests you ability to multi-task under timed conditions and preset scenarios. Been playing this game and its sequels for over 15 years and I still enjoy re-challenging myself.
not as fun as I remember it being, quite repetitive.
One of my favorite childhood game. I just love going back to this series. Fun but difficult to juggle many task games throws at you. The simplicity in graphic and management style holds up even to this day. Recommend it if you like management style games.
The game was good at first, then stopped working, squares are stuck on the screen, and of course steam said to bad. dont recommend.
Works perfectly fine on handheld devices like the steam deck this game design is great using touch screen. Wish this little gem would get a remaster with better resolution fr handheld gaming.
Classic game brought to a common platform. BEsides the price, I say give this game a try.
This game and the other games in the BuildALot family of games are a tremendous lot of fun. Challenging enough to pley them more than a few times, but easy enough to improve quickly and really enjoy! Have fun!
nostalgia :D
