Glu Mobile today announced the launch of Build-a-lot for Android Market. Build-a-lot is the critically acclaimed real estate strategy game originally developed for online audiences by HipSoft.

“We are proud to continue to support the Open Handset Alliance’s efforts with Android and believe Android Market provides a fertile environment for the business of mobile games,” said Jill Braff, senior vice president, global publishing, Glu Mobile. “Build-a-lot is an addictive game that will resonate with anybody who’s ever wanted to try their hand at the housing market.”

Build-a-lot is the third Glu title to reach Android Market, following Bonsai Blast and Brain Genius Deluxe. The game took the casual games industry by storm in 2007, garnering several awards including No. 1 “Action/Arcade Game of the Year” on Big Fish Games and “Strategy Game of the Year” on RealArcade.

Build-a-lot is a strategy game where players build, buy, sell and rent properties to become a real estate mogul. Players can flip houses for quick cash or sit back and collect rental income. Earn enough, and they can work their way into commercial properties, build up towns and eventually master the market.
