You may well be surprised at how addicted you’ll get to House Builder as you enjoy building different homes across the globe.
Even with all the issues I had, even one forcing me to restart a build from the beginning, I still found it oddly relaxing and couldn’t put it down until I was done with my current house. Given that you’re not forced against a certain time limit or other factors, you can easily play this at your own pace and enjoy it while doing something else. Priced at just under $20 CAD, some may scoff at how ‘indie’ it may perform, but this is probably the most entertainment I’ve had building houses on my console, though I question its longevity and replayability long term.
House Builder truly is a pleasant surprise. Underneath its somewhat simplistic appearance, the title hides an everlasting fun factor and a well-designed progression system of our abilities. The variety of locations, missions, and types of buildings to be built significantly contributes to the overall fun. This is a far cry from the classic simulations with their excessive realism, which can quickly overwhelm players not used to the genre. For those who know squat about building things in general, House Builder might even teach you some basics in a casual way. The OST is chirpy and catchy. Who knows if this game won’t make certain players of the younger generation crave for a career in construction? There are no major drawbacks to the experience, except perhaps the lack of a free mode to let our imagination run wild. Apart from this, House Builder is undoubtedly a reachable diamond in the small and rocky sphere of simulation games and should be tried as soon as possible!
