It's a fun well made game that I've followed on Reddit for a long time. Keep in mind that it does require skill to play, that which I do not possess.

The pictures are not representative of the game. The game mechanics are convoluted and the story line was written by someone who either didn't have the time for a story or didn't care enough. It involves clunky DRM protection and is really just not worth it. Get Cities:Skylines if you want something to build.

This is a fantastic game, with amazing asthetics. Easily one of the best games I have played of this genre. A modern Myst.

It's not finished. The textures are crude and the storyline is crudely delivered. It's almost like it's trying to be Myst, but instead it looks like an alpha version. The dev just took basic Unity tools and made an island. The lack of care shows. It's only $3, but after spending even 5 minutes I doubt it's worth even that.

It's definitely not sandbox, but it's better than most non-sandbox fps. Not the best, not the worst, goes on sale a lot. I picked it up for $4.

If there was ever a case against low skill workers in space, this would be it.

This is a wonderful game that does nearly everything right. I enjoy how it looks, how it feels. The UI could be a bit more friendly, but I can get used to it. The diplomacy system needs to be redone, simply not that intuitive. Converting over from Civ V so it's a welcome change from someone other than a AAA game producing machine.

This is why the greelight project exists. It's an excellent project that shows insane progress. Good work, early alpha is amazing.

It's a good game, has nice mods to make it over into SMAC/SMAX but the $30 DLC isn't easy to swallow considering how half-baked they seem.
