The gameplay is generally well-received, with mechanics functioning smoothly and production chains being logical and engaging. However, some players find the gameplay experience to be somewhat shallow and reminiscent of "Cities: Skylines," which may appeal to fans of that style but could leave others wanting more depth.

- “It is a beautiful game with great mechanics and overall not too shabby as it stands for early access.”

- “I hate leaving bad reviews, and maybe I'm just an idiot who doesn't understand the game's mechanics, but it isn't working for me.”
