April 2026
It's a pretty cool action game with survival elements and an interesting visual style. It's a good game to play. The only pity is that there's no co-op mode, and I think it needs some updates to be a real gem

You've probably seen the mixed reviews and wondered, "Is this a bad game?" The answer is no. However, it certainly can be a frustrating experience, especially within the first few hours. This isn't the type of game for your average instant gratification, goldfish-brained consumer. This game demands patience and a little thought and rewards you as such. Pros - Bot building is fun - Resource management can be demanding at certain points but it forces you to use what you have wisely - Simple, sensible narrative - Nice art style - Enjoyable base building options with lots of variety and freedom to craft a super base - A great concept which needs some work - there is some potential here Cons - Camera angles/zoom can be very restrictive, particularly when building - Driving mechanics and the UI can feel clunky - Enemy AI is too predictable - Sticking bot tools to your vehicles can be frustrating depending on the orientation of your vehicle - Lack of variety in mission tasks On the whole, I found myself coming back to this game and wanting to play it despite the frustrations. That tells me that there is something great at the core of this game, it just needs a lot of refinement. I will continue to support and play the game if updates and content follow. I'm giving it a tentative thumbs up because I have enjoyed the overall experience.

I want to support devs of this game, so, thumb up :) I believe that the start was tough, but the first fixes followed quickly, I respect that. I've beaten the game, but I would enjoy it more, if some more bugs were fixed, and bots would be smarter on feeding machines and tacking processed materials. Also, not sure, if sending a lot of raiders every 10 days is really good idea. They have been 'eating' my scrap, for pretty long time, because you don't have enough of it untill you can build drills, and usually they do much more damage, than you can fix with their remains. Also I think that there should be more transaparent hints, that there are some facilities to fix, which can unblock research progress, like big sorter for electronics and big smetler for alloy. What is good about this game: I really like overall idea to grow and conquer. And there is a part, when you can configure you machine from boxes whathever you like, and then you also can switch between several machines quickly, and there are blueprints, so, you can easily build more of that. And they really do some assigned work themselves, so, you can focus on exploration, figthing, building. Every start is randomized, so, if you feel that there is not enough of scrap piles or points for thermal generator, you should consider just start new game. What could be improved: -Apliance of ingame rules: I saw many examples of requested materials were not delivered to request-warehouse or production facilities, or taken from plants. Bots ignored that I allowed them to work only under some specific antenas, and went elsewhere. Builder were chilling, when there was something to build. -Parking spot - why would just everybody go there, and I didn't see, if you can control who should park where -I didn't manage to utilize RTS mode anyhow. -I would like to have some kind of destroyer, so I can remove excessive material like plasma and weapon parts -hitboxes were weird pretty often -there were several times, when I noticed, that parts dissapeared from warehouse/my bot -i would like to have an option to save the game without need to exit -My scout-digger not only didn't dig found undenground resources, but also didn't discover them (or they became hidden again after some time) -if I not mistaken, you can't change blue print name. I usually needed to create blue print, then build a bot, then rename the bot, then save blueprint from that bot, and finally remove initially created bluepring with random name

I like the game. P.S. Tune your expectations. It's not an ExMachina return. Not the size of Crossout game. For the game made by about 5 people - it's a great game.

Games got a solid foundation but the QoL and UI interactions are still in an "early access release" level. I'm personally on a mixed, leaning positive level.
