Sept. 2025

This game is completely pointless. There's no lose condition. There are no time constraints. There is almost no economy whatsoever to manage. It's just a game where you build mega-factories that take shapes and paint them and cut them up and stack them and ship them home where you can feed an infinite void that never stops hungering for ever more complex shapes. It accomplishes nothing. I cannot stop playing this game. 10/10 highly recommend.

Played this for 3 days straight and then uninstalled it permanently because my wife was mad at me for not giving her enough attention. Fair enough. Great game though. Don't recommend if you're married to a non-gamer wife who doesn't enjoy Factorio-esque games.

I love this game but I am glad that they might be changing the default game mode Honestly, I love this game but at the current date, I am glad that they are adding a different game mode. I know that other reviews share this sentiment so, I'll start with the pros first. I had always wanted to play Satisfactory without the resource management needed to make the machines that led to the automation but every time I played it in creative mode it felt like I had (obviously) defeated the whole point of the game itself. Not too long ago, I purchased this game and was very hesitant because I thought it would be much the same experience, where I would play the game for a bit and then rarely play it again. I was happily corrected when I found the game weirdly addicting to play and it provided the things I liked from satisfactory without the parts I didn't like from it. I would heavily recommend this game to anyone who wants a different experience from games like Satisfactory but still wants to manage resources and have a more loose, laid-back, experience of your factory building. The only thing that has restricted a bit of my game-play is, of course, the issue with your factories quickly becoming nullified right after you've hit your needed amount. I'm aware of the operator-level system but when you need to dedicate either more platforms or just more attention to other factories it becomes more of a back-burner type of thing. I also sometimes feel like it's easy to forget the side tasks that give you research points until it's too late and you NEED to get upgrades. While overall none of this takes too much away from the experience I do feel like it does hinder the game-play in the mid to late stages as you tear down hours of progress just to make something else that you won't need later. I am aware they are making a new game mode and I cannot wait to play it when it comes out and see if I can find myself enjoying the late stages just as much as when I started the save. I think that this game is a wonderful factory-building game that feels looser on its restrictions than other more active factory-building games. If you are thinking of buying this game then I would suggest testing it out and if you have enjoyed other factory games then I am 99% sure you will feel fulfilled on your purchase of this game just as I have thus far. I feel hopeful for the 1.0 release of this game

Wish I could give a neutral review because the game is good, it's just not for me. The two deal breakers for me are: - Progression feels bad because you frequently have to tear out entire chunks of your factory and build something else to fulfil goals, rather than e.g. Factorio, where iron plates made using your first furnace stack are just as valid crafting ingredients as iron plates using endgame machines - It's very zen garden, there's no push back from anything, only goals you can meet whenever you want, which might be perfect for some people But I cannot deny it's a polished game (especially for early access) by a developer that seems to genuinely care about it. It's just not my style.

This game is not bad, and work well but I can't find it really fun. There are several reasons for that, the first one being that creating abstract shapes is not something I find very interesting. Another is that I don't feel any sentiment of progresstion. A good part of that is because it seems most shapes factory line need to be broken down/are useless after doing the mission, or at least that's what I felt. They don't really depends on previous shapes. A big part of the difficulty of the game is approvisionnement of enough of each shapes in all their colors, and I basically factorized that, which was the period of fun I had in the game. It was too easy to have all the supplies I needed and in the end there was no difficulties in creating build lines for the new shapes, it was just basics things in the good orders, so I gave up on the game. I still recommend trying it out though.
