A "qualified" recommendation. I was tempted too many times to just write a down review, uninstall and forget it. The game is abandoned by devs (they call it "finished") while there are some serious hurting issues. Some just trivial user mistakes thet could be handled by a QoL improvement adding an extra warning -- but some need a nontrivial workaround. Most important one for me is automated store output not obeying the setup and get stuck so you need to destroy and rebuild the output, possibly even add other tricks -- that one should just work. And changing the produced item in the related factory overrides the filters that will trigger this bug :(. In effect this means you need to use separate stores for the inputs rather than one 3x3 that would do the job and either way likely to babysit the production. Most of the challenge comes from using the land space. For this reason it is more evident what trivialia the game missies like you can rotate a factory but can't mirror it. The inserters are limited to 1-1 and 2-1 but there's not even a 1-2, let alone rotating inserters. With all the frustrating problems I still kept playing on and learned how to cope. And in the campaign the game has good progression: if you play well, then the "start over" is not a big deal as you will build new things mostly and you carry over the materials from previous place. And you have the option to import basic stuff rather than fiddle with it, paying with the high level produce. It's not a survival game, your folks will not die of hunger the penalty is just unhappiness and the result of it is slowing down. You probably need to set your own challenge to keep the happiness up or to finish in lower number of days, the game does not force it on you, in the campaigh at least. (I didn't yet play solo maps, maybe it's different there). Oh yeah, the price and deals are not great compared to some serious competition, especially more recent and actively developed games, but the ~10 bucks I paid alredy provided 42h play, most of it enjoyable, I consider it a great delivery and it will get more play down the road.

i hate any game with a "wipe" system but this one is different its like deconstruct everything to the "basic" resources and bring them with you on the next island (its done automatically when you leave an island). you have to restart the factory every time you move to another island but you will need to delete everything to make a new factory completely automated anyway.

Kubifactorium is a colony builder more than it is an automation game - it doesn't even introduce automation elements until a few missions in. It's very chill and low-complexity and is a game you can take at your own pace, making as much or as little spaghetti as you want. The setup is a series of missions on different islands, with the meta-progression element that when you finish an island, every building on it gets automatically deconstructed and you get to bring all of the resources you collected with you (up to a certain amount per resource). This gives you a head-start on the next island as you can rebuild your higher tier houses or fancier machines and workshops immediately without having to crawl back up the entire tech tree again. So, even though you start over on each island with no buildings at all, you can skip chunks of the progression to get back to where you were before faster, and build/organize your structures better than last time. Definitely a fun little game even if there's not much replay value, and a nice take on the genre and formula with its own ideas thrown in. Plus the gradual transition from manual to automated tasks helps really *feel* like proper progression as the more things you automate, the more colonists you have available to do other stuff instead.

Ive been enjoying this one. Some people are calling this game abandoned when it's actually just complete. Not sure why everyone expects patches until the end of time for a game. Also you do not start over for each island in the campaign. You have a boat that gets loaded up with most of your important stuff that was acquired during the last mission. You also get optional islands that allow you to gear up and leave any time you want (I always treated my colony to a nice vacation during those. lol). Anyways, I have encountered zero bugs and for the cheap price I paid for this, even if I only finish the campaign, this will have been worth it.

A very cute and relaxing factory automation game in the market!. 8/10 ⭐️ It's really fun and challenging to design your own production chain to be more efficient, compact, and tidier each playthrough and before you know it, it's already 200 hours passed lol. For my personal opinion this game has lot of potential for improvement. The map is somewhat limited and it would be great if the devs could make it "infinite" by adding procedural map generation. And if possible perhaps new resource types, products and recipes would be great. There are also some minor problems encountered during gameplay. The bigger your system grows or perhaps using too much fast-forward function sometimes breaks the game, for example conveyor belts randomly stops midway or slightly at the end of the belt that prevents the inserter from taking it, though it can be temporarily fixed by resetting the said belt section by deleting it or switching on/off distributor function, but it would be great if it's fixed for good. Also sometimes building progress randomly come to a halt as the game fail to assign a worker to build stuff and it stuck on "wait until colonist are available" status unless you reload save. At first I thought it was due to a foreign object present in the building zone that prevents the building progress until it clears but recently I am sure it's a bug because the zone is now clear and still on "wait" even though there are 60+ idle colonists available.
