Automation empire is a factory game which basically is all about making as much money as you can aswell as getting as much weight shipped away as you can. This makes for very fun game where you only expand, never the other way around. Something that I like about automation empire is that it isn't that punishing to the player. you can basically be hit in the head with a frying pan and still be able to play this. A core mechanic in the game are the extensive minecart railroads you can make to transport all of your items. although i dont like that there aren't any other alternatives than using a furnice minecart or powered rails to get it moving. Another more late game mechanic you can exploit is the monorail. it is basically the minecart but with even more transporting power. comparing the minecart and monorail is basically couthing baby with the P1000 ratte tank that the germans wanted to use during the second iteration of the world war. another think (i spelled thing worng D:) is the fact that there exists oil in the game. this has the unfortunate side effect of bringing the united states of muricah (USM) to try robbing all of the oil in a totally leagal and non illegal process. which is not that good since it will exterminate all of the oil wells in the world. this game is very good and i like it very much. its very addicting and for that reason i would recomend all of you to play it, including you gabe newell. I now you are listening to this via microphone headphones and shall therefore imediatly download the game now. otherwise all of the progress you've made selling this to china will be lost and not found forever. but idk like you prolly know what ur doing since ur like really smart and stuff (plesa give me free games gabe). in conclution, automation empire is very fun and enjoyable game to play with all of your freinds. even though it is a single player game, that works tho since you dont have any friends. 2.4/3 mao zedong
