There's a free to play version with in-app purchases to get a taste test for the game. There's the original app with touchscreen controls for $1.99. Firstly, the game is on Steam for the same price, and there are more editions of the game (Playground, Stunts, and Medieval for $9.99, and an expansion for trains for the original for $2.99).

(Note: a few other Gamer's Lounge staff have noted that they found the PS4 edition showing as free when they got the Vita edition, but I can't guarantee that's continuing, and the store does have separate pages for both editions.) There is another caveat, though, and that's the other editions of the game. In terms of the actual purchase, I dislike the fact that these days "cross buy" games will work on PS3 and Vita but not PS4, meaning a double purchase if you own the modern system. Plus, the music continues exactly the same no matter what, and the loading screen "gears" would stutter, making me feel as if it had frozen.

It's really a shame that there's no way to get it to work. Many times I found myself trying to run the game via the touchscreen it's so naturally designed to feel like it would work with it. Using the controller and cursor can get frustrating, as you think you stopped putting down material only to slide to your next task and drag an extra piece along. I know this makes a difference in stress and load-bearing walls/floors, but when you're a half-inch from the edge to have that link become a major point for collapse it gets very frustrating. As for the gameplay, other little frustrations happen, such as the boards only being able to be a certain length or shorter.
