After playing this for over 20 years now I still love this game.

THE FACTORY MUST GROW, PLEASE SEND HELP!

If you liked the original Sins, this game is just more of it.

Very funny game, can't believe it's free.

4 Palm Trees, 10 sets of houses, no beaches or tools to make beaches.

I feel insulted.

How about a nice cup of Liber-Tea?!?

It's still ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ good.

This game really makes me wish there was not just a Thumbs up and Thumbs down option, but a :| meh option to review the game.

It's competently made and that's about it, the set pieces look great but the moment to moment gameplay is never goes beyond the basics of platforming and 3rd person shooting.
The mechanics never come together in any satisfying way, you'll only switch weapons because you're out of ammo, not because it enables any strategy.
And the playforming feels very automated, never feels like your learning and mastering your abilities, Even Jedi Fallen Order had more complex platforming sections than this game.

The story is incredibly safe, it's bland with no punch or spice.
Like a bad Pixar movie, except it's aimed squarely at 7-year olds, by people who have a very low opinion of the inteligence of 7-year olds.

And the entire Rift/Dimension thing that's central to the game?
Outside of some set-pieces and linear cinematic moments it's almost entirely a glorified grappling hook and 'door' to platforming 'challenges'.

All in all, the game left me whelmed.

Probably the best iteration of the Anno formula so far.

Performance issues.
Buggy/non-functional simulation.
No mod support

Buy Cities Skylines 1 at a sale with some of the DLC instead.

Okay Game, plays like a more simplified version of the Homeworld Games.

Unfortunatly ruined by retroactive Epic integration.
