I love puzzle games, and this one in particular, scratches that itch in the best way. I think the thing I like the most, is how what you build can almost look like art, even while it's running crazy numbers into the main collector. This game's also got a nice escalation in challenge, especially with the upgrade system.

Pros:
- Lots of game time to be had, since there is no right answer to the puzzles.
- No penalty for resources. You can build as elaborately, or as simply, as you want, and completely destroy what you built without any sort of punishment.
- Super engrossing, due to the simple, but not necessarily easy, game play.

Cons:
- As much as I love the music in this game, I would give almost anything for there to be more than one track. Sometimes I just zone out and I don't notice it all. And other times, I have to mute it after a few hours.
- Upgrade element of the game needs instructions on how to go about it. It's not as intuitive as other aspects of the game. There are sources online that tell you how the upgrade mechanic works, but it takes a bit to find a good one, and it really should be something explained in game.
- For the few super useful shortcuts that the game has, I would love to have a CTRL+Z for undoing things, as opposed to clicking the button at the top right of the screen.
- (Maybe a bug) After long sprints of gaming, I have noticed that the audio begins to crackle and pop, and there are some moments where it seems the calculations just stop for parts of the machine. This could be due to memory usage issues in the game, or it could be my laptop (an Omen 15, so MORE than capable of handling this game).
- (Definitely a bug) There are a lot of times when you will see some major miscalculations that make no sense (like 10 x 10 = 0), and sometimes they can work themselves out. Other times, you end up having to break the machine where the issue stems, or destroy it and start all over again.

Overall, this game could greatly benefit from a few tweaks here and there, and the cons are minimal, at best. But I really love the game and believe everyone should give a chance at playing. Especially since it's such an inexpensive game, and one worth the risk of trying out just because it looks interesting.

Such a chill game with a heavy emphasis on just building your fantasy home in extremely pretty and calm environment. It just feels nice to have another game in my library that I can sit down and just lose myself in without any stress.

I've definitely put in more than 31 hours, but on Steam, that's all it shows. Although this will never compare to D2, I still think that the design team is headed in the right direction. The gameplay is solid, and it's gotten much better since release. The mob density rides the line between too much and just right, which is a drastic change from what felt like a barren world in the release version and Season 1. And the story finally feels like it's going somewhere. Which is something I couldn't say was the case for the past few seasons.

I think my biggest gripe is that some of the absolute best looking gear is strictly paid for, whether on its own ion the store or through buying a season pass. Which is a real shame, because the effort that they put into those cosmetics could definitely be put towards the folks that don't buy anything.

I'm a big fan of puzzle games, and somehow I slept on this one. After finally picking it up and installing, I can't stop playing. This game is probably one of the most devious time-sinks that I've ever had the pleasure of getting lost in. The music is nice and chill. The game doesn't penalize you for making mistakes, so you find yourself placing tiles where you might not intend to, but it doesn't matter, because it looks so serene. I highly recommend anyone who is a fan of puzzle games, or city builders, or both, to pick this game up and get lost in it for hours on end.

I am barely into the story and already I am floored. It's been a long time since I picked up a game and felt like I could do whatever I wanted and enjoy it, regardless of whether it was intentional or not. For example, in the ruins near the nautilus crash, I managed to persuade the bandits outside to leave off without fighting them. Then I busted the partial hole in the ground with a heavy stone and faced off with at least five more bandits. Looking ahead into the hallway outside my room, I saw an oil barrel. So, I decided to see if a flaming arrow and a barrel of oil could change the tide of battle. And did it ever! One shot and I killed all five or six members of the bandit team in that area and never took a single bit of damage myself. The last time I was able to do something as creative as that in an rpg was in Neverwinter Nights.

My only issue with the game is that even on an Omen 15 laptop, and allowing the game to auto detect my settings (it says Ultra, but I think it might be a bit more gracious than reality), I am running into some serious frame juttering and stutters in all kinds of places. I have dropped the settings down to high, with a frame rate cap of 60, and some of the more demanding effects severely reduced or just off, altogether, and I still am having issues. It could be some hold over bugs from the early access had with DX11 that I still can't quite resolve, or something else entirely (I can't even boot up the game under the Vulcan setting, unfortunately). I am just going to chalk it up to new release bugs and wait for Larian to patch it up. The same thing happened with their Divine Divinity: Original Sins games, and they got a lot of performance issues cleared up in a relatively short amount of time.

There is a lot to love about this game, honestly. It's a solid first person shooter with excellent controls and a solid story. However, there are a fair number of things that aren't as great: balancing issues, repetitive missions and zones, and a number of needlessly cryptic quests. But all in all, between the PS4 version and this one, I have probably put in well over 300 hours into this game and I would recommend it to anyone, honestly.
