I can honestly say this is one of the first tower games I've played that gave me the same excitement I felt as a kid. The developers are also very responsive on the steam forums. If you loved playing Sim Tower as a kid pick up Project Highrise - you won't be disappointed.… Expand

   Absolutely addictive.
   
   Balancing the many (many) needs of your tenants, along with designing something aesthetically pleasing is deceptivelyAbsolutely addictive.
   
   Balancing the many (many) needs of your tenants, along with designing something aesthetically pleasing is deceptively difficult. It's true that there's not much variation between room types, but the workshop will soon sort that out.
   
   There's ALWAYS something wanting your attention and I've already been playing for a few hours and it feels like five minutes.
   
   There are lots of different types of offices, restaurants, shops and apartments to build, each influencing something near it in different ways.
   
   For example;
   
   One office wants greater variety in restaurants that serve dinner, you plop it down and the guy next to him starts to complain about the smell.
   
   Meanwhile, the restaurant complains because they can't empty their rubbish, so you pop a rubbish bin down; the guy near that starts to moan about the smell and next to the restaurant has become too noisy so one of your tenants demands a rent decrease.
   
   I love this sort of thing because it absorbs you for hours. I really love this game - I'm sure there's a perfect balance to be struck with placement but I'm yet to find it. I'm enjoying the search though!… Expand

Though lacking the livelier invite unlike SimTower, it is still a good and fun Tower Simulator building game. I hope theres more stuffs added soon in the SteamWorksop to make my tower look unique and interesting.… Expand

   Project Highrise is a well-featured game, but has quite a few quirks and bugs.
   
   [][]PC Requirements[][] Low. [][]Graphics[][] 6/10. Okay.Project Highrise is a well-featured game, but has quite a few quirks and bugs.
   
   [][]PC Requirements[][] Low.
   
   [][]Graphics[][] 6/10. Okay.
   About as good as I'd expect from a management simulator. Sometimes parts of structure textures are reused for other structures, which is not ideal because it can cause a bit of confusion.
   
   [][]Gameplay[][] 6/10. Okay.
   The game has a campaign in the form of 15 scenarios - easy, medium, and hard - and a sandbox mode. The scenarios each have 3 challenges. Building trees are complex and large. However, the gameplay is significantly less enjoyable because of the numerous bugs.
   
   [][]Game Time & Replayability[][] 8/10. Good.
   
   [][]Audio[][] 8/10. Good.
   Relaxing soundtrack, well suited to a simulator game like this. Background noises are not distracting and well-recorded.
   
   [][]Bugs[][] 2/10. Bad.
   Need extra money? Raise rents to 200% just before midnight and then lower them right after. Evictions can be done cheaply by simply lowering the tenant's rent to $0. Apartments that cannot be built below ground can be moved to the basement after being built. You can build two floors and then delete the lower one.
   The game will auto-save when you exit to main menu (there is no option to turn this off) and there is no way to load except from the main menu; this can result in the auto-save you want to load being overwritten, making the auto-save feature less useful.

After playing for a bit, I decided it wasn't worth my time due to the pedestrian graphics, poor game play and overly complex and mind numbingly bad user interface. I checked the forum to see if there were any redeeming qualities and immediately found a (locked) thread about poor balance and bugs. The developer/moderator argued incessantly with their customers and warned people despite having no cause. I then wrote a review of the boring game play and mentioned that they were awful to deal with on the forums. The developer had it flagged so it doesn't count against their negative reviews. I'm sure they're doing the same thing with other negative reviews. Beware!… Expand
