Better and better
I really enjoyed the first one but this one is much better. There are more challenges. I really felt I got value for the cost. There are still 2 I'm trying to get gold standard on. It requires a lot of creativity to defeat the levels and sometimes 5-10 tries. Very enjoyable...I'll be eagerly anticipating the next one.

Excellent Game!
I love the TimeBuilder Series. Previous ones were very very good. This one is excellent too.
Challenging but not impossible. Good animation, excellent graphics. Nice storyline.
There are no useless or boring tasks.All levels were very well thought out by the level-designers in order to present a nice variety of actions and unique strategy.
Worth every penny!

Great sequel and everything you want from a TM
This is another great game in the TimeBuilders franchise.
The tutorial clearly explains the gameplay, great if you are a newbie to the genre, but also moves along quickly enough that those who are adept shouldn't find it too tedious.
The game progresses nicely with enough upgrades, new buildings etc to keep it fresh, the storyline tying it together.
The levelling is perfect - each level requires more skill than the last to get that gold pyramid. Some levels required multiple attempts and I love the challenge. This game also has what too many time management games lack (and what I think is a must to be 5 star) - it requires real strategy and skill and flexibility in your approach. You can't just repeat the same actions level after level and expert to excel.
A nice additional element to your strategy is the option to use the "scarab currency" to choose between different helpers for each level. [Note: to try the level without a helper click the cross in the top right hand corner - took me a few levels to notice this].
Note: I always play with all sounds muted so offer no opinion on music/sfx.

Great Game
I played the demo and got gold on all levels, so if you're not able to get gold, it may just be your strategy in the game. I am curious to find out how you find the hidden treasures. I will probably buy this game.

Not as good as the first
Loved the first! This one has some annoying features I hoped would be gone after Beta test. Bouncing rocks and money delay play until clicked again. First game they were banked automatically. The 'temples' are tabletop models of the 'my city' structures reused from first game, including housing. Most problematic: must desecrate sarcophagi to get treasure. Why not just keep the treasure chests?

Great for young Kids
But overall not challenge and not that interactive. Only made it to the fourth level before I gave up. Great for small kids though.

Not as challenging as I'd like it to be
The game is fun but I beat it too quick and it wasn't challenging. If it was more difficult, I would have given it 5 stars.

Hit and Miss
This game is all over the place. The levels don't slowly increase in difficultly, some of the early levels were way more frustrating than the later ones.
All of the 'hard' levels have a trick or specific order to complete tasks that allow you to complete the level in half the available time. Figuring out the specific pattern is part of the fun/frustration.
Like all games of this type, the gameplay if very repetitive and click intensive. The plot is loosely tied to each level objective, and often switches motivations without any explanation. You won't be playing this one to see how the story ends.
For me, this was a free game I slugged through because I wanted the 100% completion, not because it was fun.
