BUILD EMPIRE: Construction

From a small local builder to the largest contractor in the world.

BUILD EMPIRE is a turn-based management simulation about running a general contractor. Win work in the bid room, run the sites, grow the company, and climb to No.1 in the world rankings.

■ How it plays
1. Bid - price the job and win the contract
2. Build - advance the month, progress the work, collect payment
3. Manage - grow departments, hire people, raise finance
4. Rank up - build a track record, clear the stage requirements, reach the top

■ Features
- Fully turn-based. Nothing moves until you press "Next month". No timers, no waiting.
- Projects from detached houses to skyscrapers, airports and maglev lines, up to national megaprojects and space-scale works
- Every project type has its own rendering, so you can see what you are about to build
- Sites change as the work progresses: cleared ground, excavation, foundations, steel frame, cladding, completion. Bridges, tunnels and offshore wind each build in their own way.
- Bidding tactics driven by technical score, standing, sales strength and your relationship with the client
- Choose how your people work. Closing the site two days a week costs money and time, but morale and retention rise, and you avoid the overtime breaches that end in debarment from public bidding.
- Department levels, hiring and staff traits, bank finance, investment projects, M&A and overseas expansion
- Everything you finish stays in the city on the home screen, built as itself - your own skyline takes shape.
- Name your own developments and hold them: rent comes in every month, for as long as you own them.
- A completion report every month. The real test is how far you beat your planned profit.
- World rankings by revenue, profit and technical score

■ For players who
- New to this? Five cards explain what you can do when you start, and the home screen tells you your next step.
