So I played 26 hours of this game over the span of 3 days. When I say this game has Factorio vibes I mean it in the best possible way. It brings all of the great things you expect from games like Factorio with the added benefit of it being hexagon based so your designs come out looking less like circuits and more like natural structures. Each element has its own unique shapes for the buildings which allows for constant new puzzles when it comes to design. Yes you can make perfectly tileable setups like in factorio, but I found myself veering away from that and finding more aesthetic builds that match the scenery. 10/10 so far, cant wait to see what the other planes have to offer as I progress from early game.

it's like factorio but chemicals magic instead of oil and gears (also hexagons are the bestagons, so it gets good review)

If you like automation games then this game is for you. It has come a long way since it first came out. I was able to finish the game at about 115 fps so the optimization has come light years from the start. The research tree is polished and gives you a great since of progression. I highly recommend you try this game out.

For the love of god play the demo first; Two hours isn't nearly enough time to even begin to wrap your head around this bad boy. It's a great game, well thought out I feel. But just not for me and definitely not an instant buy for factory sim lovers.

An interesting take on the automation/base building style genre, with six (well, kinda six plus one) elements, each influencing available building types and styles for each elemental plane etc. Getting more and more polished over time, but perfectly playable/stable/etc.

I tend to enjoy factory builders, and puzzle games. This game is both. Every element has its own style for how buildings are shaped, creating interesting puzzles where you need to work around the chasms spread across each plane, but also with the shape of each building, especially since unlike most games the grid here is hexagonal. Devs are very active in discord and respond to bugs/suggestions/questions, and I genuinely love the design of the worldbuilding. Elements opposing each other can't be built on the other one's plane (think fire vs water), but also don't tend to fit quite right together on planes where they can both be built further selling the concept of them not working together.

i got this game to support the game dev/ since the premise of this automation game was so different, while being hopeful to see where the dev takes the game. i figured to let it cook more before i sink way way more time into this game. over all it feel like an solid game play loop, after trying the newest updates think the game is still on track.

Phenomenal logistics game with a very unique art style and flavor. I've put a fairly silly amount of hours into Factorio (Over 1k at this point) and this is the only other logistics game that really holds my interest. Dev is very active, posting regular updates and thoughts on game design and the passion presented there really shows in the end product. Can't recommend enough.

Super unique take on the automation genre, i love this game. the only thing missing is a lot of quality of life features, cut and paste, better blueprinting and some polish.
