REAL ESTATE FOR DUMMIES

MAMBO JUMBO has developed a number of great games (ZUMA springs to mind!). Unfortunately, this one is not one of them...
You get to choose the lot, decide on what type of house to built, take or reject the incoming offers. Repeat. For as long as you can take it. Well, I could not take it for long as it got pretty old. Fast.
This is an example of what has come to be known as Casual Gaming: small, resource-flexible games that are fun for the whole family. It would not be a bad idea to download the 60-min trial version from a casual games site, such as REFLEXIVE (you can Google it), and decide for yourself whether this is indeed your cup of tea.
There are not many Casual RTS games, so I was more than willing to cut BUILD-A-LOT some slack. However, there are much better Real Estate games which, being some years old, make a far better deal.
I really enjoyed this game

This game made me feel like I could go out and flip a house with out spending any money. I felt like there was more variety to the game than what the other review mentioned. I enjoyed the career mode because the game really went along with how you would deal with flipping a house in real life. Also the different style homes that I was able to build and all the different challenges made this game worth every penny.
A little word-of-mouth to who ever reads this review, this game is addicting and extremely fun I highly recommend you buy this game and give it a shot; I played the trial version at Mumbo Jumbo and then ended up buying it. I would say try the trial first. By the end of the game you might feel like you can go out and do this in real life.
