Universe Balancing Bureu is a simple 3D rendered 2D puzzle game where you're presented with a simple node-map. Each node is a "planet" or other celestial body and you need to click around to balance your resources between them. Yeah, this is as dry as watching already dry paint dry. This is free, which is good, but the graphics are phoned in, mobile app tier stuff. Gameplay is equally shallow. This feels more like a mobile app than a serious PC game, and perhaps it would have been better if the developers had launched this on the app stores so they could reach their target audience (iPhone tapping mobile peasants) and even get paid for their effort through advertising revenue.

I like the concept of this game but clearly the developer launched it, and then just abandoned it. There has been no updates to this game whatsoever. It's a shame really as this could have been a good puzzle game and a decent time killer. Would be nice if you could zoom the camera out further, allowed side scrolling and given us the option to turn that god awful music off. I shouldn't have to be forced to either listen to horrendous music or play a game in silence to mute the music. For that reason, I will not be playing this game again and is why I can't or won't be recommending this game. The game is free, and for that, you can't complain. If I could give a neutral review, then I would do.

Игра 'Universe Balancing Bureau' - это затягивающая головоломка, где вам предстоит управлять ресурсами и влиять на развитие различных планет, чтобы поддерживать космический баланс. Идея проста, но глубина геймплея поражает. Каждое ваше решение имеет последствия, а неудачный выбор может привести к катастрофическим событиям во вселенной. Графика минималистична, но приятна глазу, а интерфейс интуитивно понятен. Музыкальное сопровождение добавляет атмосферности и подчеркивает важность происходящего. Сложность постоянно растет, заставляя продумывать каждый свой шаг. Приходится учитывать множество факторов, от потребностей населения до экологических проблем. Порой чувствуешь себя настоящим космическим богом, решающим судьбы миров! Из минусов – иногда не хватает более подробных объяснений последствий действий. Но это скорее стимулирует к экспериментам и поиску оптимальных решений. В целом, игра оставляет очень хорошее впечатление и заставляет возвращаться снова и снова, чтобы довести вселенную до идеального баланса. Рекомендую всем любителям стратегий и головоломок!

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.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

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.
