    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed feedback, with some users unable to review it due to crashes at startup. Others describe it as frustrating and lacking depth, likening it to a proof of concept rather than a polished product, while a few express hope for future updates to improve the experience. Overall, the gameplay appears to be underwhelming and in need of significant refinement.

    • “Intuitive gameplay!”
    • “And it's a shame you can only build where it lets you, but I'm hoping that this is early gameplay and more updates and patches will follow.”
    • “The gameplay is very annoying; it's a clicker game that is actually pretty terrible for the player. I would say this is a proof of concept type of game, like alpha.”
    • “The whole game simply feels like some assets are thrown into Unreal Engine, pour some very little mechanics over it, and ship it.”
    • “It's a shame you can only build where it lets you, but I'm hoping that this is early gameplay and more updates and patches will follow.”
  • graphics
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game have been criticized for their inconsistency and low quality, with many users noting that the production buildings appear poorly designed and resemble cheap royalty-free assets. Additionally, the overall visual style lacks cohesion, featuring mismatched fonts and graphics that detract from the overall experience.

    • “The graphics are stunning and truly immersive, bringing the game world to life in a vibrant way.”
    • “The attention to detail in the graphics is impressive, making every environment feel unique and engaging.”
    • “The art style is beautifully crafted, with a cohesive aesthetic that enhances the overall gameplay experience.”
    • “The graphics don't even make sense for the production buildings; why does the wood production building look like a well point drill supported by a snake?”
    • “All of the graphics feel like they are cheap royalty-free assets, meant to be placeholders for the actual buildings.”
    • “And by different, I mean completely different: other fonts, other graphics.”
  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and unclear in purpose, with a lack of tutorials contributing to the confusion. While the ability to zoom in and interact with buildings adds some engagement, the overall experience feels overly grindy and in need of significant updates to improve gameplay. Many recommend waiting for a sale before purchasing, hoping for future improvements.

    • “Very basic game with no tutorials really (just a few messages to start in what to do then go figure it out yourself). Horrible camera/zoom and controls. Love that you can zoom in to the buildings and click on materials to speed up the building. Very grindy but unsure what the grinding will be for. Hoping for some hot fixes to polish as it really needs polishing. Would recommend buying on sale and hoping that the devs do some serious updating.”
    • “Once you have that down, it just becomes tedious.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The user is unable to provide a review of the game's story due to technical issues, specifically that the game crashes on startup, preventing any assessment of its narrative elements.

  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report that the boats in the game are prone to bugs, occasionally breaking and preventing resource loading, which negatively impacts gameplay stability.

    • “Boats are buggy and can break sometimes, preventing you from loading resources onto them.”
    • “The game frequently crashes, making it frustrating to progress.”
    • “I often experience lag and glitches that disrupt gameplay.”
  • optimization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game requires further optimization, as players with high-end PCs report issues such as stuttering in both gameplay and sound.
