bu tarz zaman yönetimli strateji oyunlarını severim ama bu oyunu sevemedim basit bir yapıyı karmaşık göstermişler türünde daha iyi örnekleri var o yüzden hayır

Alcatraz Builder is a strategic, path clearing, time managing puzzle game.
Your goal is to clear the path from obstacles, bring items from point A to B,
build and upgrade factories, hire people to get everything done faster and take down enemies.
The levels only take a few minutes each to clear but are easily completed.
However, it's frustrating yet addictive to achieve that perfect score of 3 stars.

Alcatraz Builder reminds me a lot of the 12 Labours of Hercules series.
But comparing those two games together, this one felt a bit off..
All the levels look extremely similar and this made it feel repetitive and boring.

To those that enjoy these type of games, I highly recommend you to check out the 12 Labours of Hercules series instead.
I personally enjoyed those more and they are also cheaper.

Ik heb andere spellen van Monument Builders (bijvoorbeeld Monumentbuilders Titanic op CD), maar deze via Steam heeft helaas een probleem. Hierdoor is hij voor mij niet speelbaar. Waar je normaal de tekst zou moeten zien, zie je alleen maar een X staan. Dus je kunt verhaal niet volgen en je kunt niet kijken wat je moet doen in een missie.

TLDR: Tabletlike cooldown game. Setting has some meaningless elements, such as feeding cupcakes to pelicans to get them off the board. You do not get to see alcatraz. Outcompeted by 12 Labors.

Review: If you have never experienced it, it is worth it at least once to play one of these PC tablet ports. To have had the experience of being baited with very long cooldowns, gem for cash offers, unlock a feature for facebook shililing offers, watch a video for a few more in game currency, and moving into a port like this one, it is quite the eye opening experience. They gutted the free bonus section, you can see ads for other monument builder games but they yield no reward, rest of the buttons are unlocked later as a reward but all they do is show you some concept art, and some in game historical fluff text about alcatraz that you collect by beating levels. The game lowered all gem costs to 1, and gives you enough gems to constantly buy all the power ups at every level as long as you have three stars, which isnt hard with the power ups. The game becomes this super fast paced clusterflock of automated workers, ultra fast cooldown, and hastened building production. Levels are beaten within minutes and you realize just how little gameplay the original tablet games really had once you removed all the hassle out of it. As a sit down experience on the PC of course this kind of cooldown game is very innappropriate, it was always meant as a pick and drop experience where the game mostly plays itself. This game is made worse by the fact that you dont ever even see the alcatraz prison from what I exerpienced so far. You are just in presumably neighbouring villages fixing roads, clicking on little gangsters to make them go away, and clicking away debris. Its a lot like playing Tapped Out Simpsons from EA except without the sandbox component and with silly missions instead. The monopoly knock off mission giver and the whole storyline is all rather derivative and forgettable. You got to feed cupcakes to pelicans to get rid of them? All in all this is just library clutter

amusant,fini le jeu en 9 heures,c'est pas cher payé pour un jeu distrayant
pas facile ,je dirais même difficile d'atteindre les 3 étoiles
un peu d'histoire à chaque niveau,c'est plaisant

[quote][i]Pourquoi pas ? Voilà ce que je me disais en l'achetant en soldes et voilà ce que je confirme après l'avoir testé.[/i][/quote]

[table][tr][th][h1][b]Description & Gameplay.[/b][/h1][/th][/tr][/table]

Pourquoi ne pas jouer à ce petit clicker/gestion en temps réél ?
Il suffit de cliquer pour nettoyer, tuer, construire, acheminer. D'apparence simple, cela deviendra de plus en plus compliqué en avançant de faire des perfect.
L'intérêt principal étant d'accumuler des rubis au fur et à mesure des bons scores pour faciliter les missions suivantes.
C'est 50 niveaux qui s'enchainent comme ça vous faisant évoluer depuis le ramassage jusqu'aux échanges commerciaux.

[table][tr][th][h1][b]Ambiances sonores et graphismes.[/b][/h1][/th][/tr][/table]

Disont que le jeu se veut simple, on dirait un jeu big-fish, bien coloré avec plus de bruitages que de musiques. Dans l'ensemble, je n'y ai pas vraiment prêté attention étant plus concentré sur le gameplay.

[table][tr][th][h1][b]Le contenu.[/b][/h1][/th][/tr][/table]

Même s'il y a 50 niveaux, je suis plutôt déçu. Que ce soit par le manque de liberté dans les niveaux qui rend le jeu linéaire malgré la difficulté croissante. Que ce soit par le manque de maj, de succès, de cartes de DLC (non je plaisante pour les DLC^^). Bref il y a un manque, même si je n'arrive pas à le définir clairement ici.

[table][tr][th][h1][b]Conclusion.[/b][/h1][/th][/tr][/table]

Acheté en soldes pour moins d'1€, je ne regrette pas, car j'y ai passé du temps quand même dessus. Mais il est vite répetitif sans compter le système d'achat ingame... Ah oui je l'avais gardé pour la fin, je n'ai pas compris l'intérêt d'ailleurs.
Je met un pouce bleu car il est intéressant dans sa globalité et sympa, mais je ne recommande pas son achat à plein tarif.
