Sehr schön und angenehm.

Its a fun game to play while watching tv

手感上和戴森球类似，都是合面团，面多加水水多加面，剧情不错，屁股歪的没太离谱，合面过程还算舒服，13小时火星共和国通关

Бомбовая музыка и игра.

Неплохо. Игра может увлечь на какое-то время. Прошел игру полностью на две концовки (третью не охота, потому что она маленько только отличается от одной из пройденных, а времени сожрет прилично). Приятная, простая и интуитивная. Но игра не без огрехов. Во-первых без водного дополнения игра доставит много сложностей, последние этапы тераформирования суть просто прокрутка до нужных показателей, действия минимальны были. Да можно дальше строиться и ускоряться, но смысла в этом особо нет. Чудить исследовав все точки интереса вообще за гранью понимая, для сильных духом. ИИ противника туповат, логистический интеллект тоже порой желает лучшего. Сюжетная часть... Ну норм, ничего вау там не будет, но и не полный анус, всё читаемо, всё логично, норм, норм. Челленджа не ждите, особых красот тоже, чисто позалипать. 7 из 10 (балл за музыку).

If you can forgive it for a few shortcomings in the user interface and combat that can be worked around you'll be able to enjoy this gem and its unique and well polished aesthetic. I often find myself playing at 1x speed instead of the insane x16 speed it offers, because it is fun to just take it slow and carefully look at where to grow and where to prune. This team has really achieved something with this game. My main gripe is with the road upgrading interface, which requires many clicks. I wish it just had a button or a shortcut and you could click the roads you want to upgrade. But no, you have to click on a building to reveal the upgrade button. Now you go into the traffic overlay to see what road needs paving, and the tool is suddenly canceled. The way around this is to not micromanage the roads, but rather to make an overall plan of where you want traffic to go, as the bots will follow the fastest path. You can also hold ctrl and click multiple buildings and easily connect them that way. Then there's the balancing issues. I've played the campaign twice and each time I ran out of aluminium. The solution is to start pruning parts of your base to regain the aluminium, but this wasn't really obvious as most games don't refund all your resources when doing this. The campaign makes me feel locked up, as it doesn't allow you to use the entire planet. It rushes you and takes control from you when you are having a chill time, and it punishes you and locks you up if you are going too fast. I've realized that playing sandbox is much better. Once you know the game you can always roleplay the campaign. Then there's the combat. It's just not fun. It's just throwing numbers at numbers, it's slow, it's not exciting. To me it appears as a hurried feature that should never have been added. It's just bolted on there in the campaign in order to create some drama but I think this was a mistake. It's best to just avoid the campaign when first playing as you'll be able to play peacefully then. As I mentioned before you can always roleplay it later and focus on the story, and then the military tech branch might be a fun little extra flavor. That being said, it looks and sounds and feels amazing, it's a game I occasionally return to because it has that unique thing, dare I say akin to Stronghold. There are plenty of well balanced, polished and well rounded Mars colony games out there that just don't offer you that spark.

Необычная, продуманная в деталях, логичные механики, с хорошим сюжетом. Собраны, наверно, почти все технологии терраформирования. По мелочам можно было бы улучшить интерфейс и аналитику, но в целом отличный Sci-Fi.
