Всем привет! Игра интересна и затягивает. После 70+ часов я могу так сказать. Есть одно большое НО...Оптимизацию не завезли. На 4070ti SUPER просядки кадров 1080P до 50. Логичный вопрос к разрабам, А где патч после релиза. Или релизнули игру и всё похер.С таким отношением идёте также в известном направлении их трёх букв.Однозначно к покупке толко в бесплатном магазине не более!
Fun game. The final tiers can be a slog

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 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.

Very enjoyable experience. Gameplay mechanics are very polished, but the engine is not super optimized compared to other factory games (i.e. Satisfactory) resulting in relative lower FPS. Still, I finished the game and thought it was well worth my money and time!
This is another game that's the closest in gameplay to Satisfactory. It's great! The recent "mixed" reviews are because developers took a big, flat, inefficient map (that people liked) and structured it around an elevator, instead. It's a cool nuance in my opinion, and runs great, people just don't like change. Things I like: Great plot great feeling of exploration multiplayer works well satisfying gameplay, feels great to automate a bunch of stuff. There's lots of cool "systems" I haven't seen in other games. Things I don't like: There's a few tiny quality of life things I wish worked better. Like to build, everything goes on your hotbar, I miss building out of my inventory directly when I just have to place one thing. The game is a little directionless at times. Too many objectives and many are gated behind other ones, it can be a tiny bit indecipherable at times. It's hard to know when things are worth automating in mass vs just building a tiny factory to get "enough" of something. Anyway, I'm taking a break before learning the 5th or 6th major mechanic of the game, so maybe I'll update when I finish everything! Oh! This game definitely feels like you can "FINISH" it more than any other game out there!
I round this game good at first with its story based building but i go to play and my nearly 32 hour game is now gone as the old saves are invalid, sad to say that i may never play this game again
Hab mich gefreut das es endlich in den 1.0 ist. Durch die teilung der Karte in mehrere kleine die durch einen Aufzug verbunden sind, haben die Entwickler das Spiel für mich gekillt.
El juego está hecho con las patas
