If anywhere you can build a dream home in sandbox mode with full freedom and possibilities, this is the game for you.

i feel like i have some notes. so far i love the game. very easy to understand the gameplay, graphics are solid, and is a good start. the game is in beta now but it has been awhile since the last update has come out. here are my ideas for the nest one 1. more things should be customizable. there is a very good start. most placeable items in the game you can change all or most of colors and patterns. things like windows wallpapers or specific portions of the item cannot be changed. it might seems silly, but if the marketing is how amazing how much you are able to do and should play this game over a game like the sims because of it, i think it should be true. also some of the colors of preset items can be a little off and throw off the color scheme of the whole room. 2. eye dropper tool. there needs to be an eyedropper tool instead of just a duplicate tool. duplicate is incredibly helpful. if you want to place something like dining chairs, you would only have to customize one and copy the rest. however if you want to place something like a gallery wall or matching sofa and loveseat you have to dig through each one of the pages trying to find each one f the swatches used. 3. more. lastly there needs to be more. i understand that the game is still in beta, but seems relatively finished and has gone through several iterations already. there really just needs to be more "stuff" in game. more clutter, more stuff to put on the walls, more diverse terrain, just more things. i understand that a new game like this would take time to get to a level of a game like the sims, but if your marketing is "play this one over that one because its better and you dont even need any packs" i believe it should be true. i do like the game and have already recommended it to my fellow sims players. i give it a solid 8\10 with changes easy 9.5\10. thank you for coming to my ted talk

Laggy, and looks horrible. It's bad.

I am in love with this game. It is very user friendly and can't wait to do more in the future.

low key, great game for just building homes! do recommend fro people with a MASSIVE IMAGINATION

I dont like this game because it doesn't support macOS chromeOS and steamOS and I didnt get to play it and stuck on the loading screen for fifty five minutes and I found out only supports Windows.

It's pretty reasonable priced, especially if you're in the early stages of remodeling your house and want to mess around with ideas before taking it to a contractor.

Although it isn't perfect, as some things are limited and placement of items can be restrictive, this is a really good game to play. I've only played sandbox mode so far, but I'm hoping to try career mode next. I like that for most of the items, you can customise the appearance - whether that's the material, colour, orientation, etc, it means I can design rooms to my personal taste.

Lots of creative freedom. Some things are limited and it takes a little bit to learn, but they have all the buttons. guides, handbook, etc, (whatever you want to call it) and it helps. Calming, beautiful, and very peaceful for meticulous people who love to create, and who love customization! Downside, if any, load times for a big build takes a good while. When the build is big, the loading, saving, and quitting takes awhile. Other than that, I will wait for it to load because the creativity, customization, and the peacefulness of it all is fantastic. The music is also superb! NOTE: Got it on sale from $23 to $12. But even for a $23 game, it's worth it in my opinion!

So much for '4 years of development', this game has had the least effort put into a game out of all games i've ever played. It's so poorly designed that I will be on the verge of tears just from trying to create a corner on a house's roof - The devs must've somehow (when researching real houses to make the game realistic) not seen that most houses do in fact have corners in their roofs. So instead of doing this easily, you have to stare at snap grid spasms until you can (maybe) build a corner. Not to mention the terrible optimisation, my PC starts to melt just from building one house and saving? It's like these devs were recruited from the street and don't live in a house themselves, you can't even build a diagonal or curved wall. Genuinely, Sims 4 has had 10x more effort put into it, and is a better house building sim than this game.
