WW2 REBUILDER - play the full version now
The game titled WW2 Rebuilder will be available on Steam. It is a simulator of rebuilding European cities after the destruction caused during World War II. The game was developed by a studio from Wroclaw, Poland - Madnetic Games - and published by PlayWay.
For Madnetic Games, WW2 Rebuilder is the first game to have a full release. In 2022, a free Demo and Prologue were published for this project. These have been very well received, at this point WW2 Rebuilder: Germany Prologue has a whopping 87.27% positive reviews out of over 330 issued.
As many reviewers note, the idea is unusual. Here is a game about war, in which we do not grab a rifle, but a hammer, and instead of destroying - we create. We move to the time immediately after the conflict, when most of the old continent was destroyed. In the full version we will see maps from Great Britain, France and West Germany. We will play a different character in each country.
Players can discover the history behind ruins. Pick up a hummer or a trowel, drive in a bulldozer, clean up the area and design the new look of a place by placing different decorations. Get ready for a perfect mix of a history and a building simulator. See the stories of civilians and people of different nationalities after war.
The studio plans to keep adding maps and other mechanics to the game after the initial release for the next six months, up to a maximum of a year. In the Early Access version of the game, 10 maps will be available, however, including a Sandbox map in which you can design your own town and build it from scratch. Future updates announced by the studio will include two additional maps - Ludendorff and Normandy - new buildings for the Sandbox map, more decorations and a camera mode. Other changes are to be tailored to the needs of players.

Future updates announced by the studio will include two additional maps - Ludendorff and Normandy. The game is a reconstruction simulator, but the studio decided that storytelling is equally important in the game - hence we will experience many stories of civilians through letters, posters, tickets, notes scattered around the maps, but also through visual flashbacks or cutscenes.
