Build-A-Lot for iOS Video Review

If you've been keeping a close eye on these reviews, (and why wouldn't you, really?) you already know one of my favorite recent games is Hotel Mogul, a real-estate empire game. Well, Build-A-Lot is a very similar (some might say clone) of that game. Of course this being the app store, where seemingly identical apps pop up frequently, I'm not going to wade into which app came first, all I know is, I experienced Hotel Mogul first, which has made Build-A-Lot feel second rate to me.

The game revolves around buying, selling, and building properties in order to reach a list of goals in each level. While the game itself is fine, the low def audio is annoying. I will give them kudos for incorporating a feature that you cannot cancel construction once it is more than one-third completed: this give the game a more realistic feel.

Here's a look:
