Build in Time Review
Posted by Anthony Guiliani, 127 days ago

Also, any time left in your click assist gets added to your overall total dollar amount if you finish with time left, so plan accordingly.  And make sure you save room for the customers that wish to reserve a certain lot for an additional star!

As far as cons go, there really aren’t that many.  The game is pretty monotonous as all the levels eventually repeat areas with the exception of upgrades to houses and the eventual level of obtaining a heliport.  I don’t know if you pay attention to music during games, but I do.  The music is the same almost all the time.  I eventually had to put on my iTunes to something that got me in a quick thinking pace.  Otherwise, game play seemed to almost become a zombie state.

 Nevertheless, Build in Time was a very enticing and fun game to play.  It seemed to almost sum up my work, and return me to the kid that I used to be growing up.  It was a good combination of the adult and childhood worlds combined together.  If you are a fan of any of the Sim games, or other games of the sort, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Build in Time.

Gameplay
This game was fun to play. As you move from decade to decade, things speed up and become more of a challenge. Levels start to get a little boring as you get further and further into a decade, but take a change of pace every ten years when you cross the

Overall
But it doesn’t seem to hold its own in the new age of computer graphics and animation. It’s a simple and fun game to play. Nothing too special to play over and over to try different strategies though. It’s a good
