#CONSTRUCTOR GAME ORIGINAL ON WIN 10 UPGRADE#

Throw in four-player multiplay capabilities, and you have the makings of a wacky online buildfest worth hours of decent and devious fun. The whole idea of building is enhanced by the Teamster-like violence and British humor. Merging all these elements together, Constructor plays like SimCity on acid. I may be somewhat demented, but I enjoyed beating up the hippie! Armed with nail guns and tools, they do a darn good job on a picketing hippie or an enemy workman. But specialty characters aside, the workmen, foremen and repairmen are handy for out-and-out violent acts against an opponent.

The mob is handy for all your killing and maiming needs - and let us not forget the psycho clown, who has a fondness for playing with matches. There is a policeman to take care of the pawnshop guy's activities, and handle hostage situations caused by mobsters. There is the pawnshop fellow that will steal materials, appliances, etc. There are many other characters who do nasty and violent things. If your opponent has an empty house, send him there to take it over. When playing against a computer-controlled opponent, just send out a hippie to invoke a party or picket a factory. The third portion of gameplay, character management, is the best in my opinion. Building new structures has the same effect as advancing a tenant to the next class - it allows you to build improved structures, new factories and upgrades to existing buildings. By building newer structures, you also procure the use of various henchmen (the third aspect of gameplay) such as hippies, policemen, clowns and mobsters (there are many other psychotic and diabolical creatures to choose from as you advance). You build decent housing to create decent tenants, who in turn create special characters, and additional higher-class tenants. Higher-class tenants produce special characters such as cadets - which can be trained to be policemen.Д«uilding structures is another cool aspect of the game. It is important that you give tenants what they want, so that you can improve their quality of life and create higher-class tenants. Tenants will ask for these things randomly, which appear as a flashing icon on the left side of the screen. The gadget factory is capable of producing various items, including trees, subway stations, garden gnomes, double-glazed windows, computers, doghouses, etc. This is done by creating a gadget factory, which you get after building the required structures. There are a number of items you can make that will do just that.

To wit, a good portion of the game is keeping your tenants happy. But if you are thinking along the lines of: 'I'll just evict them, or raise their rent,' you might want to re-think that strategy! While you certainly can do those things, they tend to have consequences in the game, such as black marks on your record (tenants complain to the council if you do not do as they ask, in a timely manner), tenants destroying property upon eviction, or going 'rogue' on you and squatting on your land. You are in essence, their landlord, after all.Д«eing a Landlord might seem like fun. Tenants are fickle creatures indeed, and the main cause of many headaches for your would-be construction company. Once you have built a lumber mill, and your first 'flat,' you will be able to rent to tenants. You must do this to the specifications of the Council. In Constructor you take on the role of a 'Developer', hired by the city council to build housing - for the most part. However, your opponent can send in the Mafia to smash things up, or even put ghosts in your houses to haunt and drive out the tenants!' Probe is already at work on not one, but two sequels! But while you're doing that, the computer player (or your opponent) is building, too.

Once your wooden houses are up, you get grade-one tenants, with the idea being that you constantly upgrade tenants. 'You start off with an empty screen and build your houses from scratch, opening a lumber yard and bringing in the wood before you can do anything else. Robert O'Farrel, the game's producer for Probe, gave us a quick run-through. In the process of building them up, you've got to keep all the families that live there happy.' It's a single or multiplayer game, kind of like SimCity crossed with Command & Conquer whereby you've got to build up neighborhoods. When they were going through some problems, we jumped in and snapped it up. Fergus states: 'It was a project that we'd been after for a long time, but it was originally with Warner. Probe's other hot new title is Constructor for the PlayStation, a game which has been in development for two and a half years and takes the Sim game idea to its Noth degree.
