Early-Access-Rezension
I fell in love with this game from the start. I have recently discovered that I had an interest in Home Remodeling games and this scratched the itch entirely.

This is a living document so I'm also going to add to this over time:

The Pros:
*The game is pretty challenging from a home design perspective
*It's one of those games where you can get sucked in for hours without realizing it
*The property management portion of the game is fun, especially when it comes down to negotiating rent and renovating properties
*The game does a really good job simulating the whole landlording experience, from dealing with problematic tenants to outright evicting and breaking a lease.
*The graphics and music fit the game perfectly

What needs to be improved:

There's quite a few of these -

1. An Undo Feature: When placing tiles or paint on a renovation, If I mess up, I want to be able to undo my mistake without having to start fresh or spending more cash trying to fix my mistake. As the game goes on, the projects get more challenging budget-wise. I don't want to have to redo an entire remodeling project because of an accident
(Update 5/3/2021) - Not sure if it was fixed or I just didn't notice it but, It now seems like the game will refund or charge you the difference when you put down a different floor or a new paint.
2. Remove the Background Check and Tenant History from the Cell Phone panel: My biggest pet peeve in this game is trying to scope out potential tenants. Having to go between watching potential tenants in a building and the BRC and TH info in the cellphone panel is a hassle and can easily be fixed by putting that information in the panel where the actual tenant info is when you click on them.
3. Decor Completion Info Should Be Easily Accessible : I shouldn't have to go to different menus to figure out the percentage of completion I have for room. That should be visible at all the times during renovations.
4. Decor Suggestions Info Should Also Be Easily Accessible Again: I shouldn't have to go from one screen to another to get suggestions on what I need to make my room more complete.
(Update 5/3/2021) There's actually a way to have the Decor tab open while remodeling. I'm not sure if I didn't notice it from the get go, but it definitely makes things a lot easier.
5. The Camera Features Really Need Some Tweaking: I can't tell you how many times I've tried moving the camera in a certain direction only to have the camera punted clear across the map.
6. The Game is Verrrrrrry Grindy: I'd like to see a faster progression system in this game. As fun as it is to remodel and renovate space after space, it can get a tad bit boring after a while.
7. (New 5/3/2021) The highlights around decor, paint, and flooring don't make sense to me when it comes to the overall remodeling review standpoint. Like certain plants being for florists, or certain items being Odd's and Ends. I may have just overlooked it but, there's really no indication in what scenarios we should use these items and I would really like to see some direction on how to use them.

Other than that, this game is in an excellent state for an early access title and I can't wait to see how things develop over time.

Edit 4/23/2021 -

1. I see there are a lot of jobs for building businesses in the game. I want to see some sort of a feature that distinguishes between a Place of Business and a home residence when remodeling a specific space. I'd also like to see some business specific assets and items I could put into those places to make them feel more like a place of business IE: Cash Registers, counters, bar tops; etc.

2. I also want to see more building types. I tire from remodeling the same places over and over. I think I've remodeled the same Tree House 6 or 7 times now. New architecture buildings and a wider variety of assets and items would also be a plus.
