I went ahead and got this game thinking it wouldnt' be that good. I am mostly into seek and find games or bewjewled type games. This game was actually pretty fun. You own a house and you want to fix up your house and advance so you look in the newspaper or make calls on your cell phone and find odd jobs that people need. Like tiling a floor or painting a ceiling. it tells you want to do. For example to pait the walls . You have a bunch of cans of paint, you take the colors and mix them together. Then it times you for 2 minutes and you take your roller and roll it onto the walls.. As you progress in the game the tasks get harder. When you complete a job you earn money. Once you earn enough money you can purchase things for your house. Example , Fridge, Stove, Couches etc. And then you can upgrade your items for better ones. And eventually you can buy newer and bigger houses... It's fun if you want a game to keep you occupied

5.0 out of 5 stars A review from an 8 yr old, December 28, 2010

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Our House (Video Game)

On our house you get to make your own house. You go to the supply store and buy furniture, paint, wallpaper, and flooring. You even get to pick the house you want to work in. But, each house you pick wants different stuff in their house. Once you have everything you want\need for your house,you put the paint on the walls, the hard part is you have a timer. The timer always makes me mess up. You can put the furniture wherever you want. You put the flooring on the floor to. There is this one level where you have to put the flooring down and its a puzzle. This game is awesome!

Based on the description, I was really anxious to play this game. It's enjoyable and keeps me entertained for a little while. I find one of the mini-games has trouble reading the stylus and that detracts from the gameplay and is frustrating. After a half-hour or so, the frustration builds to the point that I want to switch games. I would make some changes to the overall game structure but all in all, a fun game.
