What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

From Dust is a creative sandbox god-sim that lets players manipulate terrain and water in inventive ways, with nostalgic appeal for those who enjoyed it on release, though some find the controls janky and unintuitive compared to similar games like Black and White. Player opinions are sharply divided—some appreciate it as a unique title that represents a style Ubisoft no longer makes, while others find it frustratingly difficult to control. The game works well technically with controller support, making it worth trying during a sale if the sandbox terrain-manipulation concept appeals to you.

If Ubisoft still made games like this, they wouldn't have the problems they're having right now.

I thought this would be like Black and White, an older god sim game. The controls are too janky for me to get into this.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
