What Makes Building the China Wall HD Stand Out
Embark on an epic journey across the Chinese Empire and take charge of building the greatest structure known to mankind – The Great Wall of China – in this addictive time management game.
The Chinese Empire is in grave danger as the Nomads from the North threaten the wealth and prosperity of its lands. Kong Baotu, a smart and resourceful man, accepts the challenge to achieve the impossible. He commits himself to building the Great Wall that will protect China from the warlike barbarians. In return, he asks for permission to marry the Emperor’s beautiful daughter, Fan Tanrui. Join Kong in his epic adventure! Help him save the Empire and marry Fan. Your journey will take you to the farthest reaches of China, through the emerald-green hills and treacherous rocky cliffs. In more than 40 levels, you will conquer the snowy mountain-peaks and cross the withering deserts. You will gather food and lumber, mine stone and iron, survive hurricanes and thunderstorms, all for the noble goal of completing the greatest building in the history of mankind – The Great Wall of China.

Community Insight:
This is a simple time management strategy game. We love the graphics. Id love to play more games like this.
We were at first put off a little by the games simplicity but this really challenging and fun! A great strategy time management game.
We love playing this game. It is challenging and addicting.
This is a great game and the only thing that keeps us from giving it 5 stars is the beginning part if each section where they introduce the next section but they only flash it for a split second and then move on to the section. Would have been nice to be able to read the intro about the new things they introduce in each section. While it does not keep you from solving the game play in each section, takes away from an otherwise almost flawless well written piece of work. Still recommend the game.
We wish there was a list of exact goals to accomplish. We wish you could generate more workers more easily. We wish you didnt have to wait for the workers to return in between every single task.
You cant line up your next moves because it wont accept anything until there is a free worker in the hut. So you have to just sit and wait until one gets back. Boring. Also you cant see what resources you need to get something done. Occasionally you catch a glimpse of something but its gone so fast youll never know it. So you spend a lot of mindless time just gather anything and everything until a green light shows up. Also boring. Too bad. Could have been good like other similar games.
Fun!!! Love this and Building the Great Wall.
Fun game!!! Hope they update so we can continue playing.
Avakin life is full of surprises.
We enjoyed this game a lot. Wish there were more games like this out there. Always looking for these kind of games. Challenging enough to have to do some levels multiple times to get the 3 stars. Worth the money.
Pick up the pace. This one does not wait for you if you’re slow.
A bit outdated…the other Building Great Wall of China has better features. However, still fun and addictive.
Great game from a great company!!! No in app constant purchases. Just one price. We are so glad some game makers still do this kind of game:). Works great.
Great game to play if you are looking for a time management game…..can by used by the whole family…..easy enough for children to play, yet hard enough for adults who want an engrossing time management game….it is not very good about the true story of the Great Wall of China and therefore you history buffs might find trouble with the storyline of this game,but if you can get past this element, it is a great game.
We gave this game five stars based on its play, not on how current the design is. It is a bit outdated, but a fair and decent example of a time management game. If your a TM fan, this is a good play, just don’t compare it to any other TM games more current than 3 years. Based on its age though, it is a good game and still holds up for a good play. As long as you are aware what you are buying, we believe the price is too steep for its age, otherwise we can’t complain.
This is an awesome game lots of thing going on. Really enjoying it.
This is a fun game. Relaxing to play.
We’ve played this game several times and always enjoy it.
Love this game. Wish it had more levels.
We love this game. We’ve played it at least 5 times from start to finish. Gotta love pay once, play forever games.
Still trying to figure out how to get the last trophy, but we’re on our second go round. Maybe we’ll get it this time.
This is by far our favorite time-management game ever! We’ve played just about every single time-management game in the App Store, and this one is still our favorite! Any chance you might make another one.
We love this game. It’s fast and keeps you thinking. Well worth the $5.
We love the pace of the game. Simple tasks that challenge you to manage time. Great fun.
We love the concept and idea of participating in this endeavor one taken thousands of years ago.
Need to be more games like this!!! A lot of planning and strategy, along with timing :-).
We are seriously addicted to this game. We even coughed up the extra $2 at the end for the "collectors edition" and it has been worth every penny. We find we will play it and all of a sudden several hours have passed! It is very addictive. Great time management game; interesting story; good graphics. Everything you could want ! Oh and challenging.
Love the game. Play it on our lap top and glad we can play it on our iPad.
It’s been a long time and we need a new release for more levels. Please.
We love this game once we’ve got the money we’re buying the full version cooking fever is boring to us cause you need gems which are very hard to get so we’re glad we found this game cause us and our mom love it and p.s. We’re not spending any money on cooking fever.
This game will make you lose sleep, be late for dinner, and generally be an annoyance to those who what your attention! You will be in China and trying to build a wall the most efficient way! It might even give lesions on better use of time! What an irony.
Was in search of another time management game and found this. This is great for kids as well as adults. You are having fun but at the same time learning about some history of the Great Wall. This company makes that cooking app game too, which is great too.
Very easy game too waste time! Enjoyable.
We love this game. We wish it had more levels though. A sequel or two wouldn’t hurt either.
We love this game. It’s pretty addicting.
It you love time management games, this is one of the better ones.
Love love love!!! Please make more games like this.
This game is very unique and we wish we could keep it, but sadly, our memory is running low. We will totally write this game down and remember it forever… Probably sneak It on our brother’s IPad. XD.
Be prepared to have fun with this fun game. Put on your fun pants and don’t forget to call home and let them know you’ll be out till all fun hours of the night painting the town fun with this fun game. If you don’t have fun insurance (hey in this economy, am we right?) then you have been warned: this game gets a little fun. Set phasers to fun for this roller coaster ride that will have you on the edge of your fun. If we had to describe this game in one word… It would be, you guessed it: "Hey this is a pretty enjoyable game!".
Cool game we’ll see how it gets.
This is a really fun, addictive game, and it’s challenging! We’re a fan of time management games and we’ve gotten good at playing them well, but this game pushed our boundaries. The puzzles are tricky, which makes the game than much more fun to play.
We got this game through another game we were playing made by the same company to earn some coins and we’ve gotten so sucked into it, we’ve temporarily abandoned the original game we were playing. This game is great and we’ve not felt forced to make any in-app purchases so far. We don’t mind the ads or the constant prompts to download the full version. In fact, we just might if this game stays this fun.
Kind of like build a lot, nice graphics, music. Moves well. Having a lot of fun, so we bought the full version.
We love time management games and this is one of our favorites. We wish they’d make a sequel! We’d buy it for sure.
Even though we’ve now completed the game three times and mastered each level, we still enjoy coming back to it. Nicely done… We wish there were a sequel.
So far, so good. Love this type of game and am enjoying this one.
Love this time management strategy game. It is frustrating to have to wait til the go to camp to give the next task. And the dragons are annoying. But the idea of building the wall is refreshing. And the design is nice.
The point of the game is to deploy workers to collect enough resources to accomplish goals within a time limit. Each level gets harder. The graphics are lovely and gameplay is quick. Very nice.
