The value story
Across all 56 discounts in the 6 years tracked, the median cut is 80 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
It is pricier than 93 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 96 percent. Captain of Industry ($34.99, scores 77) outscores it, and so does Factory Town ($19.99, scores 79). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

If the devs ever do decide to come back to work on the game, I would probably be likely to revise my review and recommend the game but that's frankly doubtful. If it's on sale for like $5 or less...
Played all day for 2 days and there are so many bugs I am pulling my hair out. I play a lot of video games of this genre, and it is so buggy I cant even play it anymore. I am so tired of these broken games being allowed to be sold. It seems like it could have been one of those games you play forever, but unfortunately, the game bugs out once your heavily invested.
