EDIT2: Another very similar game by the same dev is out there, same kind of thing, same price, same reskin. Avoid this dev. EDIT: I had to change this not NOT recommended. Why? Not the game, although my thoughts have not changed, and about 4 hours is about all the "playing" there is. It is because the dev has a very similar game, also at a cost that, is in the same state. If they had one game and were working on it? Sure, pay to get it. But this seems like a copy/paste cash grab, which is super sad, since the bones are there.. EDIT2: The devs response did not shine any light on why they released 2 games that are 20% complete, at the same time. My recommendation stays the same. Are you committed to making a good game, or making 2 games that are not really finished and make 2x as much cash? Pretty clear which the devs chose. This is super beta material. The instructions (in English at least) are not that helpful and only 1 page saying not a lot. Lots of stuff is not obvious, like only one of the "team" fights at once. There is no scroll bar on the left, so it is VERY possible you will not notice there are more things to build (looking at you, Uranium!) I would say I am half way thr…

Good idea for the game but the game is about 20% finished now. There are a lot of different resources but only few of them have specialized machinery, the rest are just copy-paste. Balance is non-existent, some things don't make sense. Why positive review then? Because I enjoyed playing it for 5 hours until it became obvious that it is not finished yet. So if you want to try it for few hours without expecting a full game, I recommend it. I am not sure if it will be ever finished as their other game - Mining Copper was released two weeks before this one and also has reviews that say it is unfinished (I didn't play it myself) and instead of finishing one game dev released another. So what is this game about? There are three parts in it: mining, making and exploration. Mining: You have several resources and each one has a machinery chain which basically starts from drilling holes, transforming them into tunnels, digging resources, transporting them, processing them into final product (either green/blue energy or just some resource which you store to use in other chains). Each stage in chain produces next resource and can also produce gold. You use gold to upgrade speed and yield of…

Not working correctly. Tip says you can setup your building processes to get endless ores. This is just not the case. Once a remaining ore type hits zero, buildings stop working as it's used up from top to bottom (top being mining by hand). I've restarted this 3 times and it's always the same outcome. Putting a limit on amount of each ore was a bad idea. It runs out quickly. I ended up refunding this. I did enjoy it for a short time until I hit this problem.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

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.
