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.

It is a niche title, but it can be a very fun game if you don't mind spending hours remaking houses and decorating them to your heart's content.

Undoubtedly it is a very specific type of game, which is fortunately an outlier from the mainstream blockbusters. It is one of those games that does not require you to think a lot while fixing a house, it is enjoyable, it is chill and I pretty much enjoyed playing it when I was not looking forward challenging games at the end of my day. On the downsize, it becomes repetitive very fast and it lacks some more detailed guidelines as what to do or how to position some things such as house layouts or other things, which may be a feature but as a game simulating house flipping, sometimes you need a little bit more guidelines to make the design look good. I recommend it and I enjoyed playing it. Hopefully the new one will be more detailed and less repetitive.

In adult life life is basically nothing but work. So why not do it more but in a video game :)

If you are looking for a relaxing game just to chill or are into interior design this game is great. There are lots of things to do to model the house, many furnitures and different houses. For me thought it got boring after 10 hours of playing. If you are a very creative person you will probably play this game more and enjoy it more than me.

House Flipper is one of those titles that you just don't expect to be as good as it is. Seriously, play this videogame.

If you've ever dreamed of becoming a handyman, this is by far the best game on the market for you. You get to fix damage, knock out walls, build new walls, paint, install toilets, bathtubs, sinks and so many other things. You can even add images from your computer and hang them on the walls as paintings! I would recommend this game over the sequel, which is much more simple and not as satisfying.

This house-renovating simulator provides a satisfying sense of progression and realism. Its focus veers away from architectural and interior design, letting handiwork steal the spotlight.

House Flipper seems like a killer idea for a sim game, and while your first few sales deliver some of the before-and-after magic, the game fails to capture the larger remodeling fantasy. Empyrean has been delivering a steady stream of updates and improvements to House Flipper, but it’ll take a lot more elbow grease to get this fixer-upper ready for market.

House Flipper manages to scratch a specific itch, but it lacks long-term incentives and just generally feels like a missed opportunity. With more content, polish, interactivity, and customization, this could become a nice sleeper hit. It's serviceable as is, but it won't hold your attention for too long.

House Flipper is a great game. Renovating and cleaning houses is always twice as much fun for me in games as it is in real life. I love games that focus on this. However, the game becomes quite repetitive over time. It doesn't have very many missions, and once you've played them all, you can't restart. But until that point, I actually had quite a lot of fun playing it.
