If you loved Build-A-Lot and enjoy fantasy games, then Wonderburg is YOUR game. Period.

Instead of turning pristine pastureland into the next suburban sprawl, you'll be fixing up fantasy-themed towns. But otherwise, the game is just the same: spend cash to improve houses, collect rent, buy, flip, sell.

Sometimes houses get haunted, so you use witch spells to get rid of the unwelcome tenants. Instead of workers, you hire Dwarves.

I don't care much for the theme. It's a nice idea, but doesn't seem like a genuine effort, more of a token gesture.

There's no reason for me to enjoy this game. I think Wonderburg is no better, or worse, than Build-A-Lot, which I really didn't care for. You could take the FREE 1hr trial from Big Fish Games and make up your own mind...
