    For a little context on why I gave this game such a low score, I'd like to talk about the PC version. The PC version of House Flipper is a brilliant game and a heck of a lot of fun, but not very well optimised. It isn't the most graphically impressive of games, yet it runs like a clogged toilet on anything that isn't a gaming PC. I have two devices that can run Skyrim with no problems, andFor a little context on why I gave this game such a low score, I'd like to talk about the PC version. The PC version of House Flipper is a brilliant game and a heck of a lot of fun, but not very well optimised. It isn't the most graphically impressive of games, yet it runs like a clogged toilet on anything that isn't a gaming PC. I have two devices that can run Skyrim with no problems, and they can't run House Flipper on the lowest graphics settings for love nor money.

    This issue is also present here in the Switch version. The controls sometimes feel really sluggish, as does the framerate, and there's just enough input lag to be noticeable. I also swear it's making my Switch run hotter than any other game I own - and this is all in spite of the fact that the graphics are cranked down massively compared to the PC version and really do not look very good at all. The Switch is capable of running better-looking games at higher framerates, so I surmise this game may just be a port of the PC version, and not a very good one at that. Not to mention that as of the launch day, it appears to not have any of the DLC or many of the items that were subsequently added to the PC version.

    Still, if you can get past all that it's still the House Flipper I know and love. Get this version only if you don't have a PC that can run it decently, otherwise it's not worth your money.    … Expand

    There’s truly so little fun to be found in House Flipper, where ugly graphics, awful controls and some tedious UI all combine to create something far too dull to recommend. You’re better off watching paint dry.

    Despite numerous issues, House Flipper is a slow burn that will frustrate and comfort you, making it a decent game to add to your Switch collection.

    I don't understand the appeal of cleaning and renovating in a video game, especially when it's as boring as it is in House Flipper.
