April 2026
I had my eye on this game since it first came out and recently picked it up during the Spring Sale. I'm so glad I got it! This is definitely one of the better idle games I've played. I like the resource management, and the offline progression helps a ton. I got super excited each day to open the game, speed up time and watch the numbers go flying up. It honestly overwhelmed me a bit when I first started, but once I figured everything out, it was super easy and chill. There are 8 towns in total, each with a few resources unique to them that you have to trade to the other towns. I love the fact that this game isn't short, but it doesn't take forever either like some other idle games. I never felt bored with it as there was almost always something to do to keep progressing. I was able to finish the game in 21 days, playing a bit each day and letting it idle in the background sometimes. The last achievement I have left is the 30 day one, so now all I have to do is wait and I'll have 100%. I highly recommend playing this if you are a fan of idle/management games.

I really like the Factory Town series, it’s a solid blend of colony builder and automation. The idle model is built on a very well-designed system and can easily keep you engaged for a few weeks. While it requires some active attention at the beginning, later on you can progress quite quickly thanks to the offline hour-gains. The interface and QoL features are very well done, and once you understand the underlying mechanics, it becomes a very comfortable and relaxing/chill game to play. Without playing too aggressively, it can be completed in about two to three months, and many players could probably finish it much much sooner. I’d definitely recommend picking it up on sale if you enjoy the genre.

Wholehearted recommendation. It's a rare sight to see an idle game that has a lot to do, a good pace of progress and the humbleness to realize that perhaps the game doesn't need to be 800 hours long and turn into a half-addiction. Simply put, this game has over 30 hours of active progression, which ironically is about the same amount as those extremely long idle games. Thanks for the experience, game dev cowboy.
