On one hand- I really like this game. On the other hand I think it's an exercise in pure human psychological torture. No inventory- you get little spheres to carry items around in. You wanna set that portable inventory down? It's gonna roll away on you. You wanna get items out of that sphere? They're gonna fly out of the top and you gotta chase them down; all 12 of them. Sometimes you can place items directly from the sphere, sometimes not- have fun with that. When you're crafting from the tablet- it tells you how many of what items you need. Once you execute the craft it gives you a list of the items needed.. sans item amount though, Why? You wanna learn ( or in my case re-learn) a little Francais- this is your game. Some items are labeled in english on one screen but in french on others. Sable = sand for those of you who don't know. The cherry on top is the 3 bass and synth heavy techno/trance songs drilled into your brain while you play. Not my first pick for a shop keeping/crafting game in the middle of nowhere.. I love this game but the QOL seems like it was almost purposely left out to see the level of tedium the players could endure before ripping their hair out. I get it's made by a solo dev, and thats impressive, but please PLEASE make a few little tweaks to some of these things.

No other game I've played makes me feel like a store restocker, farmer, sawmill worker, carpenter, canning operator, smelting operator, all at the same time. It completely immerses you in an endless grind, and literally everything has to be built. If you want to stock your store to collect money to buy upgrades for your machines, then you must build more shelves, but not before creating planks from the wood that you collect from planting trees. everything takes resources that you must either mine or grow yourself. The progression and grind in this game is on another level. Super addicting!

If I had to describe this game in one sentence, it's a masterpiece of very satisfying progression. The start is very tedious, but that's the point. You're supposed to remove tedium via upgrades and new blueprints. I makes me keep thinking about what would be the best to unlock next even if I'm not playing. Be careful, the game is highly addictive. The dev knows exactly what he's doing. There are regular upgrades that make the experience smoother. I hope the dev can pull through with his ambitious roadmap. Then it will be one of the best shop simulator games on the market.

I'm a huge fan of this genre, and I've been on the hunt for pretty much every "simulator" type game for the past 6 months or so. I have no idea why this one was so hidden, and why it took so long for me to find it. Very grindy, but has satisfying payoffs. Top tier as far as solo-dev work goes. Tutorial takes about 4-5 hours, and there are some minor localization issues, but so far I'm quite impressed and can't wait to see more of the roadmap come to fruition. Worth the price for me, quite enjoying this game.
