July 2025
I want to start off plain....The game is Good, and if this games looks like it SPEAKS to you, just buy it. I say this as someone who got the game and 100% it. The game is a rouge-like "deckbuilder", the campaign is continuously overlayed across several "games/runs"....this means all games on a profile are "in the campaign" until you complete the campaign on that profile.....at which point it becomes a mission-less "keep building until you hit the 'lose' condition and see how long you can go" which SPOILER makes NO SENSE why there IS a 'lose' condition with how the campaign ends (This is a VERY minor gripe) For a bit more context allow me to dive in. The game is really very short. I think i played though the entire game in about 1 and a half days of play during the work week. For the price, you really can not complain about what you get. Soft points first, the Music is SO GOOD, can not over state this enough, it is a short soundtrack, but GOD I LOVE IT. The Aesthetics are also 100% on point, the Art Deco/Diesel-Punk/Techno-Punk style is just *Chefs Kiss*. BUT a game is not build on the soft parts alone. In terms of the mechanics, the core game play loop is VERY solid, sometimes a little obtuse on the finer points but genuinely solid bones. The events you get periodically are pretty good, there is a bit of randomness to how they play out (in terms of effects on the game), even if you select the same choices each time it comes up. The one portion I DO have to knock the game for, the game is a tad misleading in it being a "Deck Builder". You do TECHNICALLY get choices on new types of cards to add into the random rotation of cards you can use.......but I never really felt those choices have all that much impact on the game you are playing. You can accomplish most everything you need to with the Basic 4 cards and the upgraded versions you can get during the campaign. Additionally the "Faction Favor" system is a tad obtuse, and only really gives you the opportunity to get some marginally useful buildings that benefit that faction on any individual map you play.......which is not really all that helpful after the first few games/runs. Also with the story driven nature of the WHOLE game.....you hardly notice the faction bonuses anyhow.....maybe you do if you dabble more in the "free-play" after completing the campaign, but I have not noticed it. All in all, this game leaves you feeling like it was meant to have more.....MUCH MORE. Could that have been DLCs that added more campaigns, or maybe mechanic packs that added new layers to the experience, who knows? At the very least it is BEGGING for multiple story endings. Currently (and most likely permanently) it seems they built a game around a story they wanted to tell, while not really realizing the full potential of the game that they created. DESPITE ALL THAT, if you are willing to look at the game as a narrative one off story, or are okay with a very casual rouge-like city builder. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend getting the game (As well as the soundtrack, I literally sit and listen to it while I am working). It is OK for a story to leave you feeling hollow, bartering for a different ending, and looking for more desperate for closure....that IS storytelling. 9/10 would buy.

A pleasant and addictive city-builder puzzler with attempts at deck-building, roguelike and narrative. If you like meditative puzzles and like the visual style, you will like Technotopia. The game could have been something more if the authors had improved the plot, reworked the deck-building and fully implemented the ready-made roguelike elements. Alas, now it is just a puzzle. Deck-building lacks the most basic elements. Removing cards, discarding your hand for it to work. Most of the cards are added to the deck randomly and as a result, you have almost no control over the deck. The plot is weak, absurd in places and simply short. It is there only to create some semblance of a "campaign". I have nothing more to add here. As for the roguelike, the progression is very weak in the game. You have no control over the starting setup and don't even know the rules for accruing "experience". Gradually, you are given new cards that are not much different from the old ones, they give small bonuses and add a couple more to the starting deck. That's all the progression. In addition, the game is quite short to get bored. Even knocking out all the achievements will not take much time. 6 viruses out of 10.

For it's value, it's a great game. Their is a nice story and with the basic mechanics this will get you going pretty fast. It really is a rogue-like, puzzle builder. Each run, has a limited time, since the upkeep costs are going to crash you at some point, You get XP from each run and you move on. I won't catogorise this as a city builder, since it misses the depth's of classic elements, like citizen-tiers, professions and production chains. With the progressive unlocking of achievement and the campaing, this game will keep you entertained till you finish the campaign. Small downside is the last achievement; this can be a bit of a grind together with luck.

A fun puzzle game that I suspect lost some of its narrative wit in the translation. Despite being a very different kind of game, Technotopia scratched the itch that I wish Industries of Titan would have.

Techonotopia is a more narrative focused roguelike deckbuilder, once the story is done, the game's done, but that doesn't mean there isn't lots to love about it. The art direction, successfully achieving an art deco look and feel, coupled with the limited color palette make for a very readable experience. Building the city is sort of like Tetris, as you'll have to create specific shapes to build specific structures, which will give you certain bonuses depending on the color also. Because of that, The game resembles Dorfromantik more than it does Slay the Spire or any other deckbuilder that might come to mind. It's ultra chill, perfect for a calm weekend. If I were to recommend a tea flavor for it, I'd say cinnamon tea. for reviews about cozy or creepy (or both!) games, consider taking a look at my curator page https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44079361-Ghostly-Ramblings/
