Early Access Review
Factory must grow. Always. All the time. Until it grows larger than you own life.

After Patch #1 the game has GREATLY improved, haven't had any stabilty issues at all, and the improvement to the UI are really spot-on.

There's maybe still a bit of work to be done on the paint simulation and some parts of the UI, and really big projects using the projector aren't still possible as it doesn't save, but it's getting there. The devs are active and communicating, which i'm sure will help to shape the game to something really great.

Overall, one of the best things to buy for VR, and if you have ever written, or you had wanted to but never got to it, or simply if you are interested in graffitti this is definitely a must-have in your library.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
I would advise to wait for a bit longer, as game is still somewhat buggy.

PROS:
+ The experience is really good and close to what is the real deal
+ Visuals are awesome, the environments are varied
+ Steady framerate for the most part
+ Overall, the style of the game is quite nice

CONS:
- Doesn't have autosave, and sometimes crashes, making you lose all progress which is probably the most frustrating thing about the game and absolutely intolerable in my opinion. Save often because it happens at random times
- Some settings doesn't save, or don't do anything, like drip toggle
- If you use projection, make sure to do the piece in one sitting, as the projector doesn't save and since the placement system sucks big time, you wont be able to put it in the same position again.
- A couple of the in progress pieces i have for some reason load upside down.
- Sometimes freezes for a brief moment after you've painted something. Quite annoying.

Bottom line, it is a great experience for VR, quite polished visually and in regards to interaction, but the bugs can ruin it sometimes.

As soon as some of this is fixed (specially the problem with the crashes) i'll be happy to change my review, but i wouldn't recommend in its current state. I'd advise waiting for at least the first patch, you will end up frustrated otherwise.

Buy it, you'll only regret it when they call you from work asking where you've been the last few days. And that regret won't last long.

The best city builder since Sim City 4, by far. You can either play "legit", or go completely creative and not worry about budgets at all just by activating a couple of default mods included.
The road tool is probably one of the best ever used in a city building game, and anyone can create cities that look beautiful. Now making them functional is a whole different story...

And above everything, modding support is stellar.

Awesome game 10/10

Just marvellous. Never being an inmigration officer has been so engaging.
