Builder Ben

Builder Ben is a video game in the action genre and published by Scorpio Gamesworld originally released in 1984. It is currently playable on Commodore 64.

Builder Ben is a single-screen game divided into two parts in which you embody Ben as you attempt to build four houses while avoiding various creatures and tools. In the first part you have to climb a brick wall from the bottom of the screen to retrieve your three tools at the top of the screen. As you climb the wall there is a weight and a bug that move across the screen, as well as a person that moves across the screen dropping a rock when you are in line with him. Once you reach the top of the wall you get one of the tools and have to carry it back to the bottom of the screen all within a time limit. If you are touched or run out of time you lose one of the six lives. Once all the tools are brought to the bottom of the screen, you move on to the second part.

The second part is a platformer based on the arcade game Burger Time in which you have to build the four houses while avoiding two tools that move across the screen. The screen has four levels of platforms with connecting stairs and on each level there is a part of the house and you have to pass over a part to move it down a level which pushes the other parts underneath to the bottom of the screen. If you touch a tool you lose a life and the screen is completed when all four houses are complete.
