"I have 109 hours on Automation Empire and still play it till this day". Its a very good game to seek out when you want to figure out how to make something as efficient as possible. This game would be the way to do so. Its slow when you start. Than the chaos hits you when you have factory's all over the place and wondering what resource goes to were- when you need to do research to reach another objective in the game. lol. Although the gaming development has come to a close with the last update being 5 years ago. It is, and will forever be a awesome built game with a lot of head scratchier's to make you think of different key perspectives you might have missed while thinking on how to learn efficiency.
