    When you collect trash and bum, you are renovating a haunted house. I really like the love and passion for this game. The devs are really doing their best to make it better for us, the players. And I know it sounds like I'm sticking my head in their asses but it's true, this game would be an unplayable mess without their love.

    House flipper is a game where you flip houses.
    You start of with a little bit of money, and you earn money by doing chores. With the money earned, you can buy houses, which you fix up and decorate, and then sell (or keep as a new office). The game itself is unique, and has a fun gameplay loop. There is not much of a grind, and the game keeps feeling fresh.

    For those who are scared of roaches or spiders, do not worry! There is an option in game which allows you to change those pests into pieces of glass. Parents BEWARE. The game contains one house which has jumpscares and is ABSOLUTELY NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN IN ANY WAY!
    The game does not give you an option to turn it off, nor does it warn you.
    A lot of the assets this game uses are "free" or bought assets from the unity and the unreal engine stores. This makes it feel a bit cheap. The game overall is a solid 7.5/10. It's a lot of fun and a solid game.    … Expand

    Абсолютно бессмысленная, но страшно затягивающая игра. Утомляет только затянутая анимация некоторых видов действий вроде подключения раковины и покраска обоев.

    I really enjoy the relaxed game play. However! I really wish the XBox or console version were just as good as the PC version. I know I know PC is "so much better" than console but I prefer console. The game has a lot of potential it be so awesome for console.

    I like the idea of this game, it seems very simple but after watching some youtubers one may realize there's much more to it. I'm not sure about the game cost though, is it really 15$, anyone?

    It's based on very good idea! That's why it is so interesting. You can buy, change and sell your house and have a very big fun. I like lifestyle tv, but it is much more better!

    The biggest problem is that there needs to be more. More available houses, more handyman assignments, more buy-able assets. The simplest of landscaping features would be helpful as well. Another gripe is buyers wanting me to supply their bunker and buy food or turn down a house because it lacks a TV. Buy it yourself!

    Am I going mad, why on Earth would I be cleaning up virtual garbage and painting walls? Well, the mad part is debatable, but House Flipper being fun definitely isn't.

    No time limits, plenty to do and let your imagination run free. I recommend it for anyone from 7 to 97. And I've never spilled a drop of paint on the carpet or furniture. You can go flippin' mad as well. Grab a copy of House Flipper and find your hidden talents. Just don't let your wife know you're a good painter / decorator.    … Expand

    Sehr tolles Spiel !
    Also ich kann nur sagen mich hat es direkt in den Bann gezogen, das Renovieren und die Freiheiten bei der Gestaltung einfach grandios. Addons Sehr empfehlenswert, zumindest das Garten DLC.

    minimale abzüge in der Animation, Grafik ist grundsätzlich gut!
    Ein Koop Modus wäre noch wünschenswert :)

    House Flipper is surprisingly addictive, relaxing and fulfilling while packed with a commendable amount of content, but even more so with Steam Workshop mods.

    A great game,very relaxing.
    A lot of great features like putting together various house objects,being your own repairman,builder and painter.
    Every aspect of the game is very well done but there are some things missing that should be added later on : -Expanding a both house -Replacing windows -More furniture,maybe mod support so creative people could add their creations on the game    A great game,very relaxing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. House flipper is a game that is simple when it first came out, the first i'd say 1 hour at most is just doing odd jobs, the game has come a long way since it first got released, it didn't have the ability to get to the second floor to paint the walls on the outside, but now you can, i didn't like the game when it first came out but each seasonal stuff i give it another chance and i have went from a 3 to a 9 since the game has been out, there is free dlc that anyone can get, there is so much stuff that has been added into the game, haunted houses, the murder house(which has been there since the start), Walter whites house(with the pizza on the roof), just the houses at the beginning are kinda the same but slowly the more money yo have and spend on the house the better and better it gets it seems to be great if you want to relax and just have some good old fashion fun, the game has no story what so ever but it doesn't need a story its a simulation game, you just need the ability to do the things that you would need to do, at first you couldn't replaced pluming now you can, before they didn't have scaffolding in the game, now they do, they have added so much in the game and the next DLC is adding landscaping. it h as come the longest way any game has come the farthest(at least for simulation games)… Expand

    House flipper is greatly relaxing and much more immersive than I was expecting. This is a fun game to play to wind down, or to have an exception creative outlet. The game also features realistic design choice, and an interesting and immersive experience into the world of real estate.

    The contracts are pretty fun, they took me around 10 hours, but after that the game can get a bit boring. As a huge fan of games like The Sims I expected more variety in objects. I want to move the outside walls so I could really design my own house.

    Really enjoying my time with this game. I play it in quick bursts to relax and wind down after a busy day. My one wish is that there was more flexibility in building houses. You're constrained to a preset foundation with the outer house walls limiting some design potential.

    The game starts out super fun. It's interesting and has an air of achievement after finishing the job. After some quests and renovated houses, the game becomes repetitive. Regardless, I highly recommend it to pass the time and watch Twitch!

    Cleaning up a large house, painting the walls, and fixing the plumping is dull work for most people. For some bizarre reason, in House Flipper all that is fun. Being a sim title it's not for everyone of course, but those who enjoy the idea of buying, renovating, and reselling houses will actually get addicted with playing this, especially since its title that's incredibly easy to pick up and play. Sadly, it suffers a lot in terms of replay value. By the time you hit 10 hours or so, you've practically done everything twice, and all that's left is to simply experiment with new colours of paint, or different sets of furniture.

    It seems a little silly to gush about a video game that simulates housework but given the added amount of stress and anxiety that has crept into my life lately, House Flipper is a wonderful way to shut out the noise of the world for a little bit.
