What players say
Interesting game with some fun mechanics. Not quite enough to keep me logged in, but maybe down the road I will give it another go. The building of the game though is solid and worth a play.

Fun game, only for those who like managing resources and making highly efficient designs and layouts.
City setup loop and interpretation of automation gameplay were not very enjoyable to me. It also is not often clear how to optimize and things get too many ingredients that don't build off each other quickly as u tech up meaning u have to set up whole new loops without much re-use of previous products. Overall, nice vibes but just not fun to me.
