I timed how long it took the parents to "fix" the floor on one spot. After 70 mins of them working on the floor, I moved them off it and sure enough, the floor was NOT finished! This is a bit too long. I love the game but the time it takes to fix some of the repairs is really way too long. My husband said "It don't take me that long to repair the floor!" LOL I finally just let the game run and went to watch tv and I'm not nor ever was much of a TV person. After about 2 hours, checking on the game ever 30 mins or so, the floor was finally finish.
