Construction Simulator® 4 is the latest entry in the popular architecture series for mobile devices. When it launched back in May, it introduced a new Canadian-themed location, Pinewood Cove, more than 30 new cars, and a co-op mode that can be enjoyed with friends.
If you’ve played an entry before, there’s a lot to appreciate here. All vehicles are fully licensed and equipped with well-known machinery from Atlas, Bobcat, Caterpillar and more.
Then there’s a range of control options to suit different tastes, including touch, gyroscope and controller support. You can even adjust every aspect of the vehicle’s handling to suit your taste.
While driving a vehicle and doing physical labor yourself are an important part of the game, economic planning is just as important. You need to balance your expenses with your income to ensure you maintain healthy profits.
The best part is, you can check it out for free now by getting the new version, Construction Simulator® 4 Litefrom the App Store or Google Play. If you like it, you can upgrade to the full version for just $5.
