Cozy free puzzle game that serves as a prequel to the paid Mars Power Industries Deluxe. Had a good time with it! It should be noted that First Job is a good preview of the kind of experience / mood you can expect from Deluxe, but the type of building puzzle you are solving is actually a bit different - First Job's focus is more on placing buildings in the right place to absorb adjacent power cells, whereas Deluxe's focus is more on shifting power cells onto existing buildings. I recommend it, and if you liked this one, then Deluxe is a worthy follow up.

A free puzzle game always gets my recommendation. In particular I love these free demos contain new content not present in the main game. What I don't get is the connection to the setting (i.e., industries on Mars). The same gameplay could be about e.g., stacking cakes in a bakery ...

Игра Mars Power Industries: First Job – это приятная головоломка, предлагающая нестандартный подход к менеджменту ресурсов. Игроку предстоит строить и оптимизировать энергосеть на Марсе, обеспечивая энергией различные постройки. Простота освоения и постепенно возрастающая сложность уровней позволяют быстро втянуться в игровой процесс. Особенно радует минималистичный, но стильный визуальный дизайн и спокойная, ненавязчивая музыка, создающая расслабляющую атмосферу. Задачи становятся все более заковыристыми по мере прохождения, требуя логического мышления и планирования. Иногда приходится перестраивать всю систему, чтобы эффективно использовать энергию и выполнить миссию. Однако, геймплей несколько однообразен, и может наскучить после нескольких часов непрерывной игры. Хотя игра короткая, это скорее плюс, чем минус, так как она не успевает надоесть. В целом, Mars Power Industries: First Job – хороший выбор для тех, кто ищет расслабляющую головоломку с приятным визуальным стилем и умным дизайном уровней.

This game is a nice way to see if the full game might be your cup of tea; it's a prologue, not a demo/trial. It's unfortunate and misleading that the preview video includes features that are NOT in this "first job" release. The drag and drop mechanic works well, but I wish there was a reset button, not just a multi-step undo. Recommended for those that can "think ahead" to imagine what are the follow-up possible moves.
