About This Game:

The Universim features more than 200 research perks that will help you to shape your civilization. Be as benevolent or malevolent as you like to drive nuggets to evolve, advance, and expand.

Ecological balance and resource management are critical to success. Nuggets have their own needs and behaviors you must attend to. Your guidance will shape how they deal with conflicts, natural disasters, alien creatures, and other civilizations. Their growth and evolution depends on you!

I don't usually write reviews but this one royally pisses me off. I've been a supporter of this game since before it was on Steam. This was one of my favorite games. I recommended it so many times. It's been over a year now since Crytivo has abandoned it. Doesn't make any sense to me. They had plans for it and now they've left it unfinished. I'll never buy another Crytivo game again after this. Don't bother buying this or anything else from Crytivo.

This should've been a great success, alas it did not deliver on itrs promise and it is very much more an idle game in disguise with minimal interactions.
