## What is Monument Builders?

In Monument Builders: Big Ben, oversee the building of the famous clock and discover the many legends which surround it!

The works start at the same time as a terrible threat hangs over the city: struck by a series of gruesome murders, London is gripped by fear and Scotland Yard is powerless against what appears to be the acts of a serial killer. Work alongside the architect, Carl Rybhes, and ensure that the building works progress despite the difficulties engendered by the search for the serial killer.

Help Carl Rybhes to gather all the resources needed for the building. Manage your workers efficiently in order to complete the levels in time, defend yourself against robbers, look out for clues hidden in the scenery and solve the mystery!
For memory, Big Ben, the real name of which is actually "Clock Tower", stands in the heart of London and was inaugurated in 1859.
Big Ben is, in actual fact, the name of the bell. The Clock Tower is the building itself and is part of Westminster Palace, the seat of the British parliament. It is the first bell that indicates the exact time when Big Ben rings. The sound of the bell can be heard over 6 km away!  
This massive clock, the hands of which are the size of a bus, is re-set every year using an old penny coin which is placed on its mechanism if it is running ahead of time and removed if it is running late. It was named "Big Ben" after Benjamin Hall, a heavily-built man who was the First Commissioner of Works.

### 3/5 — Challenging to finish

*2019-07-31*

The game is great until you hit levels that ask for the impossible without more hints... like is there really a 4th clue at the end?  Why doesn’t it appear?  Why doesn’t the forum mediator answer?

### 3/5 — Just okay

*2018-05-06*

The game play on this is standard for a time management game. The game can be pretty glitchy. I frequently have to reboot it. I’m an experienced player, but there are several levels that I feel are impossible to get three stars.

### 3/5 — Good game but

*2018-02-28*

As in the issue with Alcatraz some levels just can’t get 3 stars and frankly I don’t have enough time before I die to keep at it. I’ve even tried walk throughs and followed the instructions but no, it can’t be done on IOS. Great set of games but impossible on some levels

### 5/5 — Really enjoyable

*2016-11-25*

I really like this game, it's entertaining as well as informative, the facts presented between levels are quite interesting and the game is fun and engaging. Also compared with another one I've been playing, I can say it's a refreshing and welcome change to just be able to play continuously without needing additional payments. Love it!

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2015-10-05, version 1.0.1*

Great game.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2015-09-23, version 1.0.1*

In an earlier series of monument builders, the player could trade points for game perks such as auto delivery of supplies. This added another element to the game and helped user through difficult levels. This feature also encouraged user to complete all levels within 3 star time in order to accrue points to move forward. 
This version has some super easy levels and some that appear impossible, no requirement to finish a level to move on and no reason to accrue points. Not nearly as enjoyable as an earlier version.
