About
Welcome to the strangely beautiful, bioluminescent, and mysterious sub-surface alien world of Techtonica. You’ll begin with only the basics for digging, mining, and resource production.
Full Story Campaign
‘Techtonica’ is the only factory automation game to offer a complete, fully voice-acted campaign to play through. Something unknown awaits you beneath the surface of Calyx, Groundbreaker. Untangle and revive the efforts of an expedition gone wrong with the help of cubic companions who have motives, personalities, and secrets of their own.

Un diamante oculto del género factory/crafting. Techtonica me ha sorprendido gratamente. Si eres fan de juegos como Satisfactory, Dyson Sphere Program o Factorio, este título te va a encantar. Tiene una ambientación única, con una atmósfera subterránea bioluminiscente que no solo es hermosa, sino que invita a explorar y perderse en sus túneles. La mecánica de automatización está muy bien diseñada: accesible al principio pero con suficiente profundidad como para engancharte durante horas. Además, el ritmo de progresión está muy bien equilibrado. No se siente ni demasiado lento ni abrumador. Poco a poco vas construyendo tu propia red de máquinas y fábricas en un mundo que se vuelve más tuyo con cada mejora. El apartado visual es precioso: los efectos de luz, los colores, el diseño de las estructuras… todo transmite una sensación muy especial de ciencia ficción orgánica. La música ambiental acompaña perfectamente la experiencia, relajante pero inmersiva. Además, se nota que los desarrolladores están comprometidos: han ido actualizando el juego, escuchan a la comunidad y se nota mimo y dedicación en cada detalle. 🔧 Lo que más me ha gustado: La estética única y cuidada Automatización fluida e intuitiva Buena curva de dificultad y progresión Explorar tiene recompensa real El sistema de escaneo y desbloqueo de tecnologías 🛠️ Lo que se puede mejorar (pero no empaña la experiencia): Algunas pequeñas optimizaciones y QoL, pero nada que rompa el juego Me encantaría ver más variedad de biomas en el futuro Techtonica no solo es una gran propuesta dentro del género, sino que tiene alma propia. Si te gustan los juegos de construir, optimizar y explorar, te lo recomiendo sin ninguna duda.

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.

this game is cool
Le falta pulir, pero por el valor en oferta te pasas unas buenas horas automatizando
es buen juego porque te pone a pensar y fomenta tu imaginación.
Cool Game. It's basically Satisfactory with more story (and poorer manufacturing). But one thing is totally ass: Performance. It's not optimised at all. In the End you'll need to build 1000 Thingamabobs, One Thingamabob needs 400 Schnorpenheimers. One Schnorpenheimer crafts in one minute. Let's say you want to AFK build in ~10 hours. You'll need ~600 Craftingmachines just for the Schnorpenheimers + ~ 1800 Additional buildings for all the prerequesits. I've roughly 300 Buildings IN TOTAL and the Game is a slideshow with ~15 FPS
Astroneer but you are underground
