This DLC for House Flipper, released in 2022, enhances the core simulator gameplay by introducing pet ownership. Players can adopt and name animal companions, integrating them into the renovation process within the new Cozy Village setting. The distinctive feature is the new mechanic of caring for these pets alongside traditional cleaning and building tasks, adding a layer of companionship and responsibility to property flipping. It requires the base game to play.
The expansion shifts the renovation focus to a new location referred to as Cozy Village. While the core loop of buying, repairing, cleaning, and selling properties remains, the atmosphere is altered by the introduction of adoptable pets that players can integrate into their lives and the homes they are flipping.
The most significant addition is the ability to adopt and care for animal companions, primarily dogs. This moves beyond standard construction and cleaning tasks by adding a layer of personal responsibility and interaction to the simulation.
Players gain new responsibilities related to their adopted friends. This includes:
These companions are intended to provide assistance and companionship during the often solitary work of property flipping, adding a dynamic element to the player's routine.
As downloadable content, this package significantly builds upon the existing simulation experience rather than offering a completely separate game. It layers the mechanics of pet ownership and maintenance onto the established systems of demolition, painting, furnishing, and repair. The scope is focused on integrating this new, persistent element—the pet—into the established property management cycle.
This expansion is available for players across several platforms, including PC (Microsoft Windows), PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, provided they own the prerequisite base game.
