<span class="bold">Block'hood</span>, a relaxing neighborhood-builder with minimalistic artstyle, is available now for Windows and Mac, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Apartment complexes are the building blocks of a well-functioning neighborhood and neighborhoods are the building blocks of entire cities. If you were given all the necessary tools, would you manage to create an ecologically sound network of tenements that would never run out of resources and fall into decay? What would its inhabitants be like? Only one way to find out.

Aptly named Plethora-Project decided to provide players with a plethora of tiles and give them access to over 90 building blocks, challenging them to come up with interesting combinations and spawn unique neighborhoods with varying degrees of functionality. As they absorb player feedback and continue to improve the current features, Plethora-Project also work on implementing the most ambitious one yet: the population module. Once available, it will flood your pristine-looking neighborhoods with simulated people, challenging you to discover the building combinations that will attract the most unique tenants.



Build the coolest, most efficient, and long-lasting neighborhoods in the whole <span class="bold">Block'hood</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.


Note: This game is currently in development. See the <span class="bold">FAQ</span> to learn more about games in development, and check out the forums to find more information and to stay in touch with the community.
Me like much :) Will wait for final release though.....
Well it looks interesting but certainly not a building simulation. Looks more like that mountain sim on Steam. Or maybe its a puzzle game? Still will keep an eye on it.

Zoidberg: I certainly do.

moonshineshadow: Yep me too. $1.10 fair pricing thing.
Really strange.
Regional pricing is weird.
This is definitely interesting. I don't really mind the absense of simulated people, in fact it looks like an application for designing future houses/ networks of self efficient neighbourhoods (the eco premise is nice) rather than a game and it could definitely be used for academic purposes. The visuals are nice too. I hope all turn out well during the development phase (into which I ain't partaking in as I'm completely negative about buying InDev titles).
Looks very interesting, may even spring for the indev version at some point.
Once again though there is a big red "Buy on Steam" button on their web site and no mention of GOG.
Why???

Nicole28: I'm not really sure what this game is about, but from looking at the screenshots, I think the addition of people animations would be nice. If not, it'd look rather empty, sort of.
Agreed. The game would be much more compelling with an organic aspect, something to inhabit your space and interact with it. Since that part is in development, probably wise to hold off until one sees how it plays out. I think it could easily be the deciding factor that pushes the game into the "rewarding to replay" camp.

Why do you say that? I mean, see this random gameplay video - looks like a builder to me.

Painted_Doll: Meh . More ( Devolver Digital ) indie crap .
My thoughts exactly.

I wouldn't even buy crap like Block'hood for 20 cents in a bundle. Looks like the gates have been opened for shovelware at GOG. :/
