I enjoyed playing this game it was fun. What I did not like about the game was that there was a virus encoded in the game. The virus was deemed a malicious malware virus and it was caught by my virus protection program. I have downloaded games from Amazon before and have never had this problem. I emailed Amazon explaining my situation and I received a email back saying something along these terms. They explained that they run a scan on every game before putting it for sale to the consumer and they thought I was mistaken but, given the circumstances they were going to refund my money. I suggested that they should not sell this game and they figured I was board with the game and just wanted my money back! I warn anyone who considers this purchase to re-think this through I mean it is only $6.99 to download I would have to be pretty bad off to complain about and put up a fuss over something that insignificant, in fact I would not have even purchased a game online if I was that hard up for money. In short I think that Amazon should re-evaluate how they handle customer service in the future with something along these lines, it is possible for technology to make mistakes and there are morons out in the world that have nothing better to do than to create viruses just to screw with other people.

I wish it was longer (more levels). I like it because although strategy had to be experienced/learned, it was not too dificult to understand/master to the level where I was frustrated.

I recieved this game free from Amazon for purchasing Build A Lot 4.I’m glad it was free. Not very impressed. It’s a cheap version of Build a Lot. Kinda old fashioned. Where with Build A Lot you have set goals, and as long as you meet those goals your good, but not with Build In Time. You pretty much have to do what the customers says right then and there. Ok for free, but had I paid for it, I wouldn’t be to happy.

I came across this game because I liked the build-a-lot series, but was slightly bored with them after a while. Well, not with this one!! It has many similarities such as building up the neighborhood, having goals you need to meet, etc… but is not as tedious and is slightly more fast-paced. It’s somewhat of a time-management game. You have so much time to build up all the lots in the game, and your customers show up on the left with their orders. But it’s not just simply houses you build here. You have garages, parks, and different paint colors. So it’s more detailed than the first build-a-lot game. I loved it and highly recommend it!!
