Fun automation game. Start very slow but gets better and lots of scaling and improvements to do. I don't think end game was slow at all, instead it was fast. I was building big so had everything ready I needed. Didn't finish all the extra points for skins and such and the quantum extra content wasn't much fun. Main game was though.

Some cons:
Spacewalk minigame was annoying, took unnecessarily long.
Seeing what icon is what was confusing. Adding names under them would have helped a lot.
Needs better QoL for lategame. Getting stuck by your own buildings gets annoying fast.
Lacking dialogue. Just one line after you bought everything from vendors. Currently you buy everything and they still say here's what I sell.

Get Fast Dock mod from nexusmods. Makes the game much better. Otherwise it's annoying waiting 5-10sec every docking

Good old Factorio, but everything improved and made better.

Plenty of content and lots of goals to fill. There's also lot of half made and annoying stuff like inventory, combat, movement. I recommend mods for teleports, fishing and more inventory space. Very fun game with them.

More a visual novel than a puzzle game. Almost 30 minutes of filler dialogue between puzzles.

It's overall a fun game but severely lacking in checkpoints. Doesn't respect your time at all by making you repeat so much on each death

Very fun platforming. It has everything in it. Precise platforming, timed levels, traps, gimmicks, adventures, bosses. Easy levels, hard levels, joke levels. So much to enjoy

I was expecting bit more like Papers Please from recommendations. I don't think this is very similar at all. All the choices are much more subjective. They affect world parameters that affect the ending. There's no reward apart from cosmetics, no clear choice. You never talk to the people nor see them. There's no goal to aim for. No urgency. Nothing to get better at or quicker at. Nothing to worry about, nothing to gain. The only rule is "Choose x amount of people a day for death". Nothing else matters. Even that only gets you currency which does nothing.

Don't expect Papers Please when buying this. It's more of a slow paced read stuff novel game. Don't go in with wrong expectations.

One of the best point and click games out there. Humorous, adventurous, unique

Expected more interesting choices. Virtue's Last Reward is a more gameplay focused time travelling game. With an awesome story too.
This is good too, but not too different to watching the anime.
