Good early/mid game; falls apart at the end. If you like cleaning and/or job sims: 👍 If you like automation and/or conveyors: 👎 I enjoyed the earlier bits of the game where you run around various areas manually collecting scrap, processing it, and selling it basic items. That part is done well and honestly I got my money worth out of it, hence the positive review. The entire conveyor aspect however is barely usable. You can easily play most of the game without them though and for the endgame hybrid products you can use a fairly trivial setup with a few splitters and merges - you can beat it 100% with it. Building anything more complex however is just not gonna work, the game is not built to handle it. * No snap to grid, grid doesn't match conveyor size anyway (rofl), and you can't move conveyors * Machines have arbitrary different sizes, connecting a large build together is a nightmare * Intermediary items are stored inside the machines (infinite capacity), not the actual storage * You cannot control the resource flow and it's impossible to tell how much of what you have available * Items fall off of conveyors at random - you get stuck with 35/36 contract, go search for a box somewhere * Insane FPS drops to single digits even with empty storage and machines not running, reasons unclear It's a decent job sim but the conveyors are best not to bother with beyond some triviality. For a similar experience but MUCH better conveyoring check out Parcel Simulator.

Not perfect. Some bugs. Overall was addictive and enjoyable for me. Endgame is a little lacking. Ended up 100%ing it and stopping once I found the endgame lacking. Definitely worth it when on sale for a mixed manual/automated recycling business game.

I don't know what it is about games like this but it's so relaxing to play. I have so much more to do but I can't stop. Have to close the game and do other things? Do I really hmm naaa back to it I go. Sorting trash is way more fun then I expected. Totally recommend it.

The satisfaction I feel when I play this game is insane, I got hooked on it after about 3 minutes of game time and it is well worth the grind because yes, as with all simulator games, it is very grindy (Though I don´t mind it at all). It runs somewhat smooth on my potato of a laptop and it gives me the nice little brain tingles when i pick up the trash due to the sound it makes. i would 100% recommend this game if you need to just unwind, relax and feel like recycling some trash
