  • gameplay
    15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game has been compared unfavorably to "Little Big Workshop," with some users noting it feels derivative and lacking in innovation. However, others appreciate the engaging gameplay loop, particularly the market forces mechanic that requires balancing production and demand. The game features a comprehensive tutorial and offers depth in mechanics, such as factory layout and workflow management, which some players find enjoyable.

    • “The gameplay loop is interesting and fun.”
    • “The market forces mechanic is probably my favourite part of this, trying to balance production quantity and the demand of the products you are making, getting them out quickly vs how many you can make.”
    • “Smart Factory Tycoon is very deep in gameplay mechanics, everything from where to place the tables in the factory, how to set up the workflow, the path the robots will take, and how to transport everything.”
    • “I knew all mechanics already from that rip-off garbage...”
    • “If this game does not improve how robots work and some minor mechanics such as buying stuff, building and rebuilding, or changing something from place to place, you are definitely better off playing the other game, Little Big Workshop.”
    • “Sadly, this game is a copy of Little Big Workshop but a lot for 'indie' - UI layout, gameplay loop, flow.”
  • graphics
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with some users describing them as outdated and reminiscent of early 90s technology, while others praise the realistic and eye-catching designs. Many feel that the graphics lack the charm and quality of the original game, suggesting that improvements are needed to enhance the overall visual experience. Overall, the consensus leans towards disappointment, with calls for a significant upgrade in graphical quality.

    • “The maximum graphics settings even fit my computer, which is very good.”
    • “Realistic and eye-catching game graphic designs.”
    • “Very good graphics.”
    • “Graphics look like they were made for Windows 95.”
    • “Pretty bad honestly, not that good graphics and just bad in general.”
    • “In the current state, it feels cheap and plays exactly the same as the original game - but lacking a lot of the cuteness and better graphics.”
  • monetization
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of "Smart Factory Tycoon" is criticized for being misleading, as it presents itself as a game while primarily functioning as an advertisement aimed at selling the product for $15. Reviewers express frustration over the prevalence of such ads masquerading as games, arguing that they clutter the market and detract from genuine game developers. Overall, the monetization strategy is seen as exploitative and detrimental to the gaming community.

    • “If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on YouTube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising.”
    • “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
    • “It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers; you deserve better than adverts.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews; while some players appreciate its atmospheric qualities and ability to remain engaging despite being on a loop, others feel it lacks rhythm and can evoke negative emotions. Overall, it contributes to the game's ambiance, enhancing the experience with its reflective nature.

    • “Great game with an easy to follow tutorial and a good atmosphere provided by the music and cute robot employees.”
    • “I think the game could have a better pace if the music had more rhythm.”
    • “The background music and game sounds are extremely self-reflective.”
    • “Music didn't get old even though it was on a loop.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is perceived as lacking, with one user rating it a 3/10 and expressing regret over their choice of a funny name for their factory, suggesting that the comedic elements did not resonate well.

    • “The humor in this game is absolutely delightful; I found myself laughing out loud at the clever puns and witty dialogue.”
    • “Every character has a unique sense of humor that keeps the gameplay fresh and entertaining.”
    • “The absurd situations and hilarious interactions make this game a joy to play.”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story revolves around producing marketable products, starting with rubber ducks, where players must acquire blueprints, machines, and robots to manufacture them. The tutorial effectively guides players through the initial steps of this production process.

    • “The game's story is virtually non-existent, making it feel more like a tutorial than a narrative experience.”
    • “The premise of producing products for the market lacks depth and fails to engage the player in any meaningful way.”
    • “The first mission revolves around producing rubber ducks, but the lack of a compelling storyline makes it feel tedious and uninspired.”
  • atmosphere
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is praised for its cozy and detailed environment, enhanced by charming music and adorable robot characters, which collectively create an inviting space for players to build their ideal factory.

    • “That's why I like the way the developers have worked on detail and created a very cozy atmosphere in the game, which gives us the opportunity to create the factory of our dreams.”
    • “Great game with an easy-to-follow tutorial and a good atmosphere provided by the music and cute robot employees.”
