Builder Simulator – Review

Builder Simulator joins the long line of simulation games, with the promise of a greater level of depth and detail for fans to create the house of their dreams, build it and then decorate and furnish it. So is this the cement of a solid simulation, or just a pile of rubble.

The closest thing to a “career” is in Contracts, which offer specific tasks on pre-defined levels, there’s 16 in total, but sadly this is where a few disappointments start to creep in, at least the first three of those sixteen are all the same building which is little more than you e already done in the tutorial and to make things worse, after completing the first and starting the second, it simply loaded back to the start of the first contract. Repeating the same tasks three times, I still couldn’t progress to the second contract, so at this time, that entire game mode is dead on the water, fingers crossed the developers fix that quickly, becasuse it’s not the best foundation for building a successful game.
