About Building & Co: You are the architect!

Building & Co is a management simulation game which allows the player to experience all the aspects of managing and supervising a real construction site. Players must adhere to building specifications, keep to budget and take into account technical constraints; as well as hitting crucial deadlines to be able to complete on time and progress on to more ambitious building projects.

In a rich and highly detailed 3D environment, players take control of the complete construction process such as hiring, managing and coordinating workers to the purchasing of materials, constructing foundations and floor design.

Building & Co is the first construction management simulation game to offer unprecedented freedom in decision making, and offers hours of fun with a technical twist that will appeal to fans of the simulation genre.

Be an architect, be a city planner, even be a foreman - take charge and bring the craziest building designs to town!

FEATURES:

• Draw the design plans, set up the construction schedule and manage the workforce.

• Build a variety of building projects such as residential buildings, hotels, banks, museums, hospitals and even shopping malls in a rich full 3D environment!

• Work through highly detailed construction stages with the aid of professional advisers from areas such as Human Resources, Logistics, Architecture and construction to help you achieve success!

• 20 challenging single player missions with progressive difficulty in different urban environments.

• A powerful 3D engine that features weather effects, a seasonal cycle, and a 360° camera with zoom facility.

• Let your imagination run wild with the integrated "sandbox" mode, which provides unlimited freedom to create and construct the building of your dreams.
