两年前玩过demo特别特别喜欢,终于下载来玩(:目),花了两个存档四十多个小时才通关。游戏内容不复杂,汉化也没有大问题,剧情只是装饰作用。游戏里的不同地图和不同主题都很亮眼,哪怕通关了也可以换个地图换个主题继续攻克。游戏开头很好上手,到了工程师-贵族机器人阶段难度会上升很多,主要是资源难采集,而且矿洞里的敌人有些难对付。此外游戏里一些数值的详细解释比较少,需要玩家慢慢掌握赚钱和花钱建造的平衡。 喜欢经营类游戏的话可以试一试,我自己玩得非常上头!!!
A short and sweet city builder.
Wenn Anno und Satisfactory ein Kind hätten, gepaart mit Tower Defense. Das Spiel macht großen Spaß, hoher Suchtfaktor.

Every market we collect.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Really fun gameplay - the first half hour is a little rough because there's a lot to bootstrap, but the stakes are low (you probably won't suffer a colony collapse). The game really opens up when you unlock the mine. Has good replayability, since the mines can be randomized, and there's a bunch of maps with their own perks. Took me 8 hours to beat the first map. Definitely will drag you in to "one more turn" if you like base builders. Now I'm curious about Dungeon Keeper and similar mining games... Game looks nice but based on mangohud would probably run on much older hardware.
Das ist ein wirklich großartiger Casual City Builder. Mir gefallen grundsätzlich alle Steamworld Spiele ganz gut und das hier ist eines der Besten. Als Strategie Einsteiger ist das hier das perfekte Spiel, also Anno Experte vielleicht eher weniger.
É mais do mesmo, apenas mudou a embalagem... Mas é muito gostoso de jogar e bem relaxante.Se gosta do gênero pode comprar sem medo...
Un très bon city builder, avec une petite historie simple mais efficace et un univers bien à lui, venant de la série des Steam World Dig. La façon de gérer sa ville est très bien pensée, inspirée des jeux Anno, avec ses différentes "classes sociales" et ses routes, entrepots et bâtiments de services ou de production à placer le plus efficacement possible (le déplacement gratuit et infini est plus que bienvenue!). Il y a une partie sous-terraine également, pour faire honneur aux titres précédents. Ce côté plus "exploration-expansion-extermination" vient compléter à merveille ce qui se passe en surface! De plus, beaucoup de mécanique de qualité de vie viennent rendre le tout facilement gérable et visible. Bref, c'est un bon jeu, bien équilibré, où vous trouverez votre compte et pourrez rejouer les cartes, afin de compléter les différents succès et déblocages qui vous sont proposés!
This is a fun city sim with dungeon keeper vibes. Keep you population growing and happy, and dig deeper. You can unlock various special buildings with buff in very different levels of helpfulness. It's very charming, being part of the Steamworld universe (maybe a prequel?), but it isn't enough to mask all the flaws. It's a bit hard to see why a certain building isn't working well. E.g. it says "slow production", but not why. But that is maybe on me. It offers different difficulty levels, which is always nice to see, but one of them disallows achievements and unlocks, which was unneccessary. A very nice, quite cozy game, very likeable.

i'm basing this purely on how good steamworld dig is. this game feels like two underbaked games awkwardly put together. both are fine, but i do not feel compelled to even finish the final stage let alone play through it again.
