A unique cooperative action game that is all about the art of architecture has just laid its foundations on Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch – Buildest.
A game where you can explore different historical eras and build unique buildings, Buildest from developer MAYO Games and publisher Sometimes You is now available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch for £10.74.
Prepare to explore, craft the necessary materials, and order your workers to build as you travel through time and discover all the architectural secrets of the past.
A Journey Through Architectural History
The core of Buildest is a grand tour through seven different and distinct historical eras. You will get to visit and explore:
- Ancient Egypt
- Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome
- Ancient Asia
- The European Middle Ages
- European Baroque
- European Art Nouveau
- American Art Deco
Each era contains a multitude of new architectural elements for you to use in construction, and each also opens up other new and unique game mechanics as well.
Examine, Gather, Build
Being an architect is easy, right? All you have to do is examine the design plan, gather the necessary resources by exploring the level, craft the materials, and then give the order to build. It’s that simple!
As you progress, you can unlock new crafting recipes to create your own unique designs, and even experiment by combining architectural elements of different styles.
You don’t have to take on this historical journey alone. You can choose to play solo, or team up with up to three friends in 4-player co-op to speed up the building process.
Another Unique Blueprint from Sometimes You
Publisher Sometimes You continues its mission to bring a massive variety of unique and often bizarre indie titles to console players.
The creative co-op action of Buildest joins a diverse library that has recently included the surreal and memorable adventure MOUTHOLE and the Lovecraftian horror of The Nameless City.
It’s important to note that Buildest on Xbox does not support Xbox Play Anywhere.
