Gameplay is heavily reliant on understanding the mechanics and worker systems, making a guide essential for players who prefer not to navigate the complexities on their own. However, many users find that the game can be completed in just two hours, with a straightforward winning strategy that diminishes replay value, leading to feelings of wasted investment.
“If you play for 2 hours, you have either won or lost. There is an easy way to win, and you can do this over and over, so after 2 hours of gameplay, the game becomes useless and you waste your money.”
“This guide explains the mechanics of the game and its workers, and is essential to read unless you enjoy muddling through and figuring things out for yourself.”
