✦ AI summary

Caster is a rough-around-the-edges indie game with ambitious terraforming mechanics and fast-paced movement that some players find genuinely fun, though others criticize its bland graphics, minimal story, poor level design, and lack of polish. The game appears to be a divisive early indie project that appeals primarily to players who appreciate its novelty value and don't mind technical limitations, with most positive sentiment tied to its historical bargain pricing rather than intrinsic quality.

If your graphics card burns out while playing this game, you won't even notice the difference in image.

A hidden gem of a lost era. Rough around the ages and feels like a university project, but what it lacks, it makes up for in ambition. I hope this kind of terraforming returns.

Goated game, as for 30 cents it met the requirement for one paid game on steam to play multiplayer. For the price at the time, the game was fun too.

Oh my god so fun! You can run so fast and jump really really fast if you jump while running like it's absurd. The weapon choice's are extremely perfect for multiple types of player's. Super fun game, also it get's pretty hard after the first world and the creator really get's creative with the level's, fun video game and I wish I grew up with it!

Caster is one of the worst games I've played in a long time. I got it on sale forever ago for pennies so to see it priced at £8.50 is honestly shocking given that it appears to be a first project with little work put into it. Across dozens of blank landscapes there are generally the two objectives of shoot stuff and collect stuff. Fundamentally, that is the premise of a lot of games, if you're being disingenuously reductionist. What Caster lacks by comparison is almost an entire story, graphic or sound design, and apparently any QA testing as I gave up on the borderline impossible task of keeping the ship afloat in Acid Meadow following a level where I had to push a ball into acid with no real means to move the ball other than determination. I came in with low expectations and Caster still did not meet them. Again, seeing the game at its current price and its rating artificially improved by a bunch of meme reviews, please do not be fooled into making this purchase.

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.
