Infinitely replayable, infinitely moddable, countless ingenious ways to solve problems... if you need a gentle, just-cerebral-enough distraction, this is it!
Bought this game when it first came out, launched it and gave up. Well now the year is 2026, I gave it a shot again and now I can't stop.
While I felt misled by the advertising, I was expecting something lighthearted and silly. This game is not quite either of those. I cry with the duplicants whenever one of their team inevitably has some accident dies. The game though is very awesome. Also it's sneakily educational, went into it with no experience with engineering, though I do love math, so I learned a ton and had a ton of fun playing.
