Eden - World Builder
Is It Any Good?
EDEN - WORLD BUILDER is a good, solid app for budding architects, artists, engineers, or anyone with a healthy dose of creativity. It offers an experience similar to buying a bucket of LEGO pieces, but with more functionality and less cleanup. In addition to stacking blocks and objects to create buildings, vehicles, forests, or anything else players can think of, there are a variety of landscaping tools to shape the entire environment. This is the kind of app that players can interact with for hours at a time and not even realize how long it has been because they become so engrossed in its creative aspect. The lack of a strong goal-based system may deter some players from pouring a lot of time into this app, but those who take it for what it's worth -- a 21st century sketch pad that lets players bring their thoughts to life -- will no doubt enjoy all that it has to offer.
