The gameplay offers enjoyable mechanics and around 6 hours of active play, but much of the experience involves being idle for resource accumulation. However, players find the tutorial lacking, making it difficult to grasp advanced mechanics and effectively set up task assignments. Overall, while the game shows potential, it suffers from confusing mechanics that could benefit from improvement.
“This game had a lot of promise and the gameplay mechanics were enjoyable.”
“It's definitely worth getting it while it's on sale, since it's about 6 hours of gameplay (the rest is more being AFK while getting science/money).”
“Maybe the tutorial could be improved a little to get you running with some research and more advanced game mechanics.”
“Mechanics are confusing, task assignments are pretty much impossible to set up.”
