The Machine Stops

It's fun tweaking and optimizing your resources to complete the objectives. and there is a lot of replayability with the multiple endings. It's perfect as a bite size game to play as each run only takes 10 minutes instead of needing to commit 30+ minutes for a match in another game.

Recommend playing with people back seating as it feels like starting a real business

Came in expecting another incremental game and ended up pleasantly surprised. There’s a lot more strategy here than I expected, and it’s the kind of game that grows as you dive in. I had several moments where everything clicked and I immediately wanted to start over with a better plan. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into resource management and optimization games.

The basic idea is strong, and it's nice and small and does not ask a lot of you. It's a classic roguelike, in that the only thing that stays between runs is the lessons you've learned from the last one. It's interesting in concept, and i hope the developer gets a chance to expand from here.

A fun little resource management game which is well worth the price. Looking forward to Act 2!

This feels like a resource management rogue-like. You have 10 minutes to win and you start from scratch every run. The runs are quick and the pressure is high, but every run I get a slightly higher score than before, which makes me want to try again. I'm trying to just focus on one of the three win conditions so I can actually get a win! Edit: I did it!!
