What players say

Its a good game -but- its not at all what I was expecting. For every 1 level of 'blow up this castle with your war machine' you get 4 or 5 'puzzle levels.' Thats ok and all. Just not my cup of tea and I would not have bought the game had I known. I will also say the building system is not great. Its missing a ton and there are really obnoxious issues like building frames you expect to connect, they just don't so you...

Fun engineering game. The base game doesn't have much content, but mods and workshop creations more than make up for that.

bought Besiege thinking i was gonna build cool war machines built a machine it fell apart immediately tried again it exploded tried a third time it somehow flew backwards spent 30 minutes building a massive machine just for it to break because i added one wheel the game is basically me fighting my own engineering skills 2/10 fun for a little while but i got tired of watching my creations fall apart
