The real estate sector may be down but perhaps testing your wits via a mobile game can help you get ready once the economy picks up. The new application is Build-A-Lot, a critically acclaimed real estate strategy game originally developed for online audiences by HipSoft, lets iPhone and iPod touch users build, buy, sell and rent properties with the ultimate goal of building up towns, mastering the market, and becoming a real estate mogul.

“Glu is excited about its latest development efforts for the popular iPhone and iPod touch, as the App Store continues its exponential growth and consumers become increasingly eager for high quality mobile games,” said Jill Braff, senior vice president of global publishing, Glu Mobile. “HipSoft has cultivated a strong audience for the online and downloadable versions of Build-a-lot, and we are looking forward to providing existing fans with another way that they can interact with their favorite building game.”

Build-a-lot is now available worldwide for $4.99 from the Apple App Store on iPhone and iPod touch.
