Reception


The game was fairly well received on release garnering a 7 out of 10 review score from IGN,[5] and an 8 out of 10 from IGN Germany.[7] IGN praised Project Highrise for being able to quickly and easily craft a smooth, self-sufficient system from the ground up thanks to a welcoming and fast-paced simplicity,[5] and Rock, Paper, Shotgun called the ability for the player to easily understand what was going on, despite the deep levels of complexity, the game's biggest achievement.[8]

Despite the praise, Project Highrise was also criticized for its lack of personality due to its artistic style and color palette. The way each room looked was thought to be too similar and as such, larger skyscrapers could look monotonous.

Project Highrise has a score of 73/100 on Metacritic.[3]
