This is one of the worst games on the network. I can't believe I bought it. Nothing is predictable. The "spin the wheel" is useless. There is no comparison with Roads of Rome or other similars.

I like it. I find it challenging, interesting, and obsessive to get expert mode even if you redid the level over and over. (and over more). No walkthroughs on the net yet, so I kept at it.
Achievements were not my concern and I discovered I got them all but the one for completing a hidden object level in under 45 seconds. So, i went back and did it in 31 seconds and received the achievement for that. I liked that you could go back and redo any level you just could not wrap your brain around getting done and work on it later.
I found the graphics very nice, better than (did not play roads of rome), but time builders, my kingdom for the princess 2 and 3, and royal envoy and royal envoy 2 which I loved but the graphics is dorky. I found the graphics here, much more refreshing and beautiful. Kind of brought into the 21st Century.
Music I turn off, so cannot speak there. I always listen to tv, or whatever, while I play ...I leave the sound half way, but I don't care about music. I am also not interested in the story. I just like the gameplay.
Bugs: I found that the workers on some of the later levels would get stuck in their "wave" motion and left all the work to another worker. It was Random and sometimes I had to restart the level to get expert because of it.
My only other issue (I have Windows 7), was when I changed from FullScreen to not full screen, I would get an error message and it would have to be restarted. No biggie, but I like to check mail or something and you cannot do it with FullScreen. So I would play periodically in a windowed screen. It is not a biggie.
I really enjoyed the game. I am not a young person like you all. I am 69 and find these games great for the mind. I really am looking forward to the relaxed mode as most people seem to enjoy once I master these durn Bonus Levels and I will! It may take a few times, but I will get them in the expert mode. After all these levels it will not beat me.
Some things are not clear and there is no place to find the answer in the game itself such as say the storeroom. It tells you up front it adds more resources, but then I had forgotten and needed to discover it again. No place to go for that info. But it is kind of like the warehouse in other games.
I like it... Glad I bought it. Will play it more than once for sure.

I demo'd this game and really liked it...but kept thinking, should I wait for something else I like better? I was really on the fence about buying it. Thanks to BFG, I soon had my answer. I wound up not buying this game, as other TM games debuted that I liked better. Keep the TM games coming, BFG!
Overall, not a buy for me, although I liked the story-line, the graphics were average, and the building/road clearing aspect of the game appealed to the TM/Builder in me.
Thanks to BFG for debuting more TM games lately!
Happy Gaming, Fishes!
