July 2025
35 hours in-game so far. Here's my take: There are essentially three stages to this game: Stage 1: Starting Out: The game has a strong start, introduces a lot of mechanics and explains 90% of it very well. If you have played anything like it previously, you will intuitively know what to do for much of the first hour or so. You grab some resources, build a land-claim, construct a small base, and start storing and processing raw items into more complex structures and items. There are crafting benches, processing buildings, and storage options. Early game you will be burning a lot of wood to cook food and smelt metal. Eventually you will crack into Steel-production and then things get complicated. Stage 2: The Desert. The second phase will be establishing your power-generation, refining crude oil into gas and mineral oil, and constructing more complex, powered buildings to do your processing for you. This is where you hit your first hurdle... There is no early-game solution to the imbalance of power needs vs. power generation. The only decent options at early phases will be Gas Generators, Bio-generators, or solar panels. Gas requires a juggling of jerrycans and resources constantly to keep ahead of the generator's need for fuel. Bio-Generators produce very little, and require constant feeding of bio-matter like fruit, meat, rot, and the like. Solar power is much better, but is so resource intensive to craft the panels, its out of reach.... So you need to venture into the Desert to get Lithium Salts to make Lithium ingots to make electronics and any of a number of your tier 3 cool stuff. Problem is, the desert is dangerous, far from where you likely built your base, and the resources you're looking to get are hard to acquire, rare, and do not drop in quantities that are viable. After doing this, dying several times to things the game does not explain to you, you wille ventually get your first vehicle.. the hoverboard. Stage 3: The unending grind. Eventually you will figure out how to get Pragmium in quantities that open up making a Pragmium Power Plant, and your power generation will no longer be an issue. Lithium will constantly be an issue, even with the Advanced Extractors pulling it out of the ground constantly. Steel will become an issue. Gold will become an issue. Rubber will become an issue. You will find yourself needing tons of materials that are far apart, relatively,. non-abundant, and a pain to acquire. By the end, when I was looking into starting tier 4 and 5 productions... I realized that my best plan would be to just crank up my reactors, max out their longevity, and let the game run over night.... And I decided that I was not going to do that, and instead just step away from the game for a while. I don't know if I will ever play it again. Was it worth the $3.00 I paid? Hell yes. I got a solid 35 hours of fun and grind out of it. Is it worth it to grind to end game? I can't know. I lost my walker robot to the Pragmium Queen, and do not foresee bothering to get another, or wasting more time grinding out more of the exact same gameplay again for another 20 hours just to find out what comes next.

The game is too easy in single player mode. I also dislike that I can’t rotate objects or use a controller in-game either. But hey, it was on sale for $2 so I can’t really complain. At least progression doesn’t take ages to get anywhere.

Even the game was abandoned a while ago, the game as-is is quite enjoyable. I easily get hooked into it. It is among the cheapest game in this genre while the game is such a joy to play. Totally worth it especially at the 90% discount which happens quite often. I already spent 38 hours in it and still have quite a lot to work on. I really want the dev. to continue update this game. This game can then be as great as any big indie games. EDIT: I really can't stop myself playing. Soon, I notice myself passing 100 hours. If we take the game as a finished product which it is, it's really worth it. There are tons of things to do. Lots of bosses to kill. The game loop is you hit into some enemies which are impossible to fight, then you go back to grind and progress through the tech tree to get new gear/armor to go back and beat that enemies. During this loop, we also have to advance our tech in order to build the final rocket to bring us out of this planet. I play solo and I had to admit that up to the near end game, the grinding time grow astronomical high very fast. When I go out to collect certain resources, I spent my precious high damage bullets. Then I have to go out to collect resources for these bullets I deplete another resources. After I explored 100% on the map, found all creatures (which passed 100 hours play time). I skip to the end game using admin console command to get all required resources. The cool tech in this game that I like are the night vision goggles, different types of mechs, drones. There are a lot of toys to experiment with. If I'm not cheating on getting resources at the end game, I belief I will need at least 50-100 hours just to collect all required resources. So, I belief at least you will be able to spend more than 200 hours on this game easily. If you like this kind of games, just buy it already, ok?

In order for this game to be fun: 1. You need friends. 2. Don't be afraid to double or triple the resource sliders to reduce the insane grind so you can enjoy the better aspects of the game(like combat and raiding).

Nice game but easily get bored. There are small amount of enemies and small map size. I hope they will update to add more enemies, technology, armor, weapons and increase map size
