It seems a little silly to gush about a video game that simulates housework but given the added amount of stress and anxiety that has crept into my life lately, House Flipper is a wonderful way to shut out the noise of the world for a little bit.
This house-renovating simulator provides a satisfying sense of progression and realism. Its focus veers away from architectural and interior design, letting handiwork steal the spotlight.
Cleaning up a large house, painting the walls, and fixing the plumping is dull work for most people. For some bizarre reason, in House Flipper all that is fun. Being a sim title it's not for everyone of course, but those who enjoy the idea of buying, renovating, and reselling houses will actually get addicted with playing this, especially since its title that's incredibly easy to pick up and play. Sadly, it suffers a lot in terms of replay value. By the time you hit 10 hours or so, you've practically done everything twice, and all that's left is to simply experiment with new colours of paint, or different sets of furniture.
House Flipper seems like a killer idea for a sim game, and while your first few sales deliver some of the before-and-after magic, the game fails to capture the larger remodeling fantasy. Empyrean has been delivering a steady stream of updates and improvements to House Flipper, but it’ll take a lot more elbow grease to get this fixer-upper ready for market.
House Flipper manages to scratch a specific itch, but it lacks long-term incentives and just generally feels like a missed opportunity. With more content, polish, interactivity, and customization, this could become a nice sleeper hit. It's serviceable as is, but it won't hold your attention for too long.
One of the best and most satisfying simulation game you can play. Not huge monsters no zombies no action just you and your beatiful house just tha. You either can build a petshop, electronic store, bar or nice cozy home. Meybe the house in your dreams.
This is quite an addictive game, you can lose track of time while playing it. I get so absorbed in it.
I've always liked building and creating in games.
However when you start buying and flipping houses a lot of the base game houses seem way too simular to each other with not much unique variety with only a few interesting houses at the upper more expensive end.
I like to complete everything and the game does become repetitive and boring as there is not enough Decor and design choices in the base game.
I like doing the structured jobs much better than buying and flipping houses as that gets very repetitive and feels so samey.
There needs to be at least the ability to make your own paint shades as what there is, is limited. And you can only do walls in vertical strips and are not able to do horizontal strips. Which limits creativity as you can't do a lower half different than a top half of a wall.
The game can be glitchy and buggy.
I also think the DLC is overpriced and I would not buy any unless it's on sale for no more than $10AUD.
I only have the pet DLC as my friend gave it to me as a Xmas gift as that was the only one with a small discount.
Overall I really enjoyed playing the game. It's good if you are creative and like decorating or even just cleaning and making a house look better. Overall the game is very relaxing and fun, makes time go by so fast when I play it. It's good to play and return to when you feel like playing something relaxing.

House Flipper apporte un petit vent de fraîcheur grâce à son thème de la rénovation immobilière. Il est extrêmement simple à prendre en main, et dispose de nombreuses tâches différentes réalisables. Pour autant, il finira par devenir assez répétitif, avec le sentiment que les maisons s'enchaînent les unes après les autres, d'autant que l'argent coule rapidement à flot, il ne faut pas s'attendre à de la difficulté. Le titre mise plutôt sur la liberté créative qui est laissée, au joueur et personnellement je trouve ça très bien. Un très bon petit jeu pour vivre le quotidien de Stéphane Plaza !
Sortie en mai 2018 / Développé par Empyrean (studio indé Polonais).
I do not understand why this game has such a high rating here and on steam.
House Flipper is one of the buggiest games i have ever played. And I have played many games by EA and 2K.
But instead of fixing bugs they sell plushies and DLC 's which trigger even more bugs , even if you don't own the DLC 's.
If you follow the Frozen District - Twitch stream you'll see how proud they are about there creations.
But if you take a deeper look into the game you'll see a lot of asset flips (scripts, meshes , textures, posters aso.).
Even many of the textures which comes from textures (dot)(com) hasn't renamed and has the same name as the textures on textures (dot)(com).
SummaryHouse Flipper is a unique chance to become a one-man renovation crew. Buy, repair and remodel devastated houses. Give them a second life and sell them at a profit!
