What we like:
  • Addictive gameplay
  • Moddable out of the box
  • Relaxing pace
  • Lots of customisation options
  • Regular updates
What could be improved:
  • Frustrating events (short circuits and arrival of people)
  • Intermittent AI issues: stupid colonists and animals
  • Slow research and progression
