House Flipper - Finally out of BETA (STEAM)

Nimatek · May 18, 2018, 8:42am

Hey everyone,

Just checking in to see if anyone else picked up or is play House Flipper from Steam and enjoying it as much as I am? Took forever to get a BETA key so was surprised to see on launch that I got a key from a friend.

It seems like such a tedious and mundane idea, buy a house, clean it, repair it and sell it. But oddly it soothes my inner madness going around cleaning rooms (nice when you get the upgrades for you tools) and then going about demolishing / painting and finally selling for a profit (hopefully).

good fun for a relaxing game and outlet to some creativity.

Here is the Steam link for the lazy

I didn’t even know this is a thing, though I am not surprised. Currently the user reviews are a bit mixed I would say.

Bah sorry didn’t see my link didn’t paste before posting.

It is a strange game, either you like it or you don’t. It appears to follow from a bunch of Simulation based ideas - Surgeon / Mechanic to name two. But definitely a youtube review before buying - I’m not saying buy it right now, just checking to see if anyone else plays it.

Sounds interesting, although I have a lot of real life house work I’ve been neglecting for a while, perfect time to practice with a game

Fucking finally. I have had my eye on this for a long time. It looks absolutely brilliant. Will be picking it up tonight!

I love my brother, I love my brother.

Instead of studying I have been watching him redo a house in the game, I just bought it, I will play tonight.

bought it over the weekend and started playing a little. I love it. So methodical and chilled out. Cannot wait to spend some more time with it. Just bought my first house. Let the cleanup and renovating begin!

Hahahahahahaha slow poke

Just in the evenings after studying and during the podcast on Sat I was playing this.

So far I have finished all the email works - all 100% -be methodical, especially around window frames.

I am on about 10 hours in. Busy with my 2nd house

@Nimatek is running out of houses to buy - Hopefully we get more options soon

I fell in a deep Forstpunk hole over the weekend. So the majority of my weekend was spent playing that

aaaaaaaaaaaah makes sense.

We even have @DieGrootHammer addicted.

Seriously enjoying the game. Also so far there hasnt been an advantage for selling your home office and upgrading your place. So I just made my shack pretty. Will take some pics tonight

What is going on here?

What is the draw of these type of games?

The more i see this game the more i think… hmm maybe

Just be warned at the moment there is only 20 jobs, and not sure about the houses - about 20 odd as well. But it is addictive and oh so relaxing.
