it's runescape but you don't have to waste real time grinding.

I didn't think I would like it, but it's actually really interesting. Lots of different mechanics to dive into.

One of the best factory games up there with Factorio and Satisfactory

Very fun farming/automation game. For the price there's a lot of value and fun here.

Best game ever made.

Sorry, it's true.

The account system is horrible, I had to log in 10 times and fill in 6 codes and verify I was human 15 times just to be able to make a new character and relink it to my steam so I could play.

Took me an hour and after all that, it's just Runescape. It's okay. Better gathering but worse crafting and combat than any other MMO.

I was hoping all the reviews were wrong, but man this game needs better, everything. The dialogue is bad and there's so much of it. There's just random introductions and incidents without any explanation. I got corrupted, healed, and killed a guy all in a minute and I don't know why. I'm level 5 but I've only fought like 3 things total. I've finished like 20 quests and I don't know why. I won the carnival without participating.

This game is okay, but it's just a chaotic mess of bad pacing, badly written story and lack of direction. If you want an intersting game, this isn't it.

The artwork and craft of the game is top notch, but it's heavily leat down by so many small issues that just make the game feel bad.
Like if something melees you, you can't turn to shoot them for a second, it feels so bad.
Opening your menu then pressing ESC brings up the map instead of closing the menu.
Having to hold a button to open a menu, but there's no indicated if you've hold it long enough.
A ticking noise for THIRTY WHOLE MINUTES before server shut down, like just make the tick for the last minute.
All the interesting locations being so close together, but then having cliffs everywhere so if you try and walk straight there you are blocked, but also poor pathway navigation. Kept hitting cliffs and having to trace them before I was familiar with the landscape.
Running out of a specific crafting material and just not knowing where to get more.
Having to find "Jangles" somewhere. Didn't kow it was a monkey doll inside a booth, had to google it.
Inventory Management, god, I don't know what's useful so I pick everything up and breakdown the junk and then deposit it and pick everything up and breakdown the junk and deposit it and pick up everything and break down the junk and deposit it and ......
When I'm tracking a feral ghoul's position ready to shoot and I click, and the ghoul STOPS dead and I miss because I was trying to track his position ....... like have the devs never heard of momentum? People don't just STOP.
So everything I eat gives me rads, and radaway is fairly common, so it's not really a dangerous mechanic, just yet another number you have to manage makes it feel tedious instead of immersive.

I could keep going, and yeah individually these aren't that bad, but the fact there's so many and the whole game feels awful because it's just a constant barrage of minor annoyances.

Tried 10 different simulation games, this is the best of them all, and it's free!

Good game. Just shy of being great thought.

The core gameplay loop is very engaging and there's just enough economic management puzzle to make it stand out apart from the other 1000 sim games that are shallower.

I feel the game could have a bit more automation, or a bit less tedium later on. I'm still manually planting and harvesting crops, tending animals and moving goods around and it gets pretty repetitive. It's funny how it's market simulator, but then you can automate the market, just not everything else.

Much better than first expected.

It's a village builder like the Anoo series with a Dungeon Keeper game going on underneath. I don't think they explain that properly, so if you like both series, this game is great.
