The gameplay is a mixed bag, appealing to fans of similar games like Scrap Mechanic and Trailmakers due to its ability to create complex mechanical structures and resize parts. However, players note significant limitations in engine placement and customization options, leading to frustration with the mechanics and puzzles. While some appreciate the unique aspects of the game, others find it lacking in fun and engagement compared to its peers.
