This is a fun automation game with several elements similar to Factorio but with an FPS perspective. Some of it is slightly better or worse than Factorio, but it is an overall great choice if you like automation games. Other noteworthy differences besides the perspective are:
-No progressive enemy system or attacks on your infrastructure
-No limited resource patches, but the number of patches is finite
-No randomized maps (everyone plays on the same map)
-Building and changing builds is generally more time consuming and cumbersome but more satisfying
-No real endgame objective like self-induced SPM goals of Factorio

I backed this on Kickstarter to support the developers of the upcoming Mika and The Witch's Mountain. I was disappointed by this game's lack of difficulty and anything remotely interesting. I really don't think I would recommend this for kids either. It just isn't fun.

Also, you can't call the in-game reward a Kickstarter exclusive when anyone can get it.

This is a bad game.

I am writing from the perspective of a chess player and achievement hunter. It takes under two hours to get all four achievements if you know how to play chess. You must win 11 games to get all four. In the required story mode, you always play black against a bot who plays at about a 200 rating. The bot always opens with the ludicrous e3. There are some gimmicky "spells" along the way which alter play, but it just slows down your demolition of a poorly programmed bot. After the story, you play a few more games to clinch the final trophy. The 60 minute clock in story mode shows the developers have no real awareness of chess.

Objectively speaking, the computer having zero skill and ability to modify the skill level makes this game useless for chess. En passant, a legal move in chess, was not programmed here (typical for poorly made chess games). The delay between the end of one move and you being able to click on your next move is excruciating.

Subjectively speaking, all parts of this game are trash.

This game seems very fun from the one level I was able to play with my friend online. Unfortunately, there seem to be endless connectivity issues that make this game unplayable. After numerous attempts to reconnect with each other, we gave up on playing this game.

EDIT: The above described error has been corrected, and the game now works. The game is somewhat fun.

This is a short game with fun puzzle elements. It is straightfoward and easy to obtain 100% completion. Unfortunately, the game will give you the answer to every puzzle without consequence if you want it.

This game is poorly programmed. The controls are probably my least favorite part of the game. The bridge building games available on mobile devices are a better and more enjoyable option.
