What players say
TL;DR: I recommend this game for folks looking for a COZY game with a production line theme. There are some quality of life features I wished were implemented, but the game is still very much playable and great to play while watching a stream or generally chilling. I can't stress this enough, THIS IS A COZY GAME that is about production. I purchased this game thinking this would be a fun factory sim/supply chain...

not intuitive. Forced to do what the dev want you to... No way to free play, erros happens whenever they want to happen, you have no free will in the game. Must follow the linear whatever the dev invented and done. but if you make a mistake, your fault without an error message. Some nodes requires input for maintanence, but the node itself has no input. Dev created a game that him knows how to play
