The Constructors for Windows

A simulation-strategy game about running a construction company

The Constructors is a simulation-strategy game that sees the player take on the role of owning a construction company. The player must design new neighborhoods in the fictional town in which the game is set. They will be able to hire contractors to carry out work and must deal with clients.

As far as comparisons go, the most obvious game to consider is something like the Sim City franchise or Cities: Skylines. However, the scope of The Constructors is more local. The game also allows the player to cut corners and make more money.

Run a construction company

Unlike the games mentioned above, The Constructors delves into the minutia of running a construction company. The player will have to oversee the design and construction of various projects, but they will also have to deal with contractors, clients, and even local townsfolk protesting new construction. The player also has the option to cut corners to maximize profits, though these choices have consequences.

Design neighborhoods

The game takes place in a fictional town by the name of Wondersville, which has seen better days. The player’s goal is to revitalize the town by building new neighborhoods and other projects to breathe new life back into the place. The Constructors gives the player the freedom to exercise their creative side when designing these new neighborhoods.

A good game for fans of the genre

While The Constructors is unlikely to win over players who do not already enjoy this type of simulation and city-management game, it offers a new dimension for those who do. This game takes the player into the finer details of running a construction company, something that many other city-management games do not do.
