Renovate & Relocate: Boston Review

Renovate living spaces from penthouse to a suburban home and more in the northeast city of Boston where colleges abound and restaurants, shops are trendy and inviting. Mac hidden object game Renovate and Relocate: Boston will challenge you to renovate rundown places and to redecorate a home.

The story will take Olivia who just moved to Boston to start a new life. She must redo her dated and very messy penthouse. Scenes will require you to find a lot of objects to clear out from the messy entrance of her apartment building to cleaning out her contractor’s lawn. You’ll find each scene filled with many items you must click on to clear from the list located at the bottom of the screen with the hint button on the lower right. You will find your usual clipart type of objects like footballs, tools, medals, watermelons, shoes, etc.

After clearing out different places your room is cleared out to the drywalls and you can start remodeling the space as you like it. You will have 3 choices to pick for different things. You can choose your flooring, walls and appliances. Tony your contractor will do all the work. You’ll also visit furniture stores to be rewarded furniture and home decorations to add to your places.

There are over 30 levels to play with some renovating activities. There’s a lot to do but the HOG scenes are fairly standard with unrelated objects spewed all over the place. The remodeling part of the game is controlled by having only 3 choices to make. The story is limited. The scenes could have been in any city. The penthouse did show the skyline of a city, but can’t really tell if it is Boston or some other city. To be fair I’ve been to Boston and can’t really tell what their skyline looks like. It’s not like New York or San Francisco where you can definitely make out buildings. This game is easy to play and it may be good for children (although there are a lot of misspelled words), but I didn’t get much out of it even though I like going to Boston. I give it a 2.5 out of 5.
