I love this game and I honestly hope the developers don’t leave this game in the sand, I have so much fun with factory games and idle games. I wanna see this game continue with more levels and more resources and more complex factory builds honestly tho I just got to level 8 so I haven’t touched the liquids and stuff like that, I really just wanted to make this review to let the developers know that people do enjoy your game, the only bugs and companies that I have are sometimes when you start the game it just puts you into a black screen all you have to do is close the app and reopen but I just want that to be known and I wish that you guys would add puzzles that you guys made I understand the online creation but for the story mission of finish 5 puzzles I already got to where I didn’t know what I was even doing with the resource needed I would really like a developer made puzzles tab and you can use those as a demo and a challenge, overall I’m having so much fun with this game and dumped a inexcusable amount of money into this app but I want it to be know that this is no where near a pay to win game it’s going to take much longer but you won’t be waiting on resources like I am now you’ll be waiting on the money (also please make it more obvious that you could make money) it took me WAY to long to realize the recycler actually made money I thought it was just gonna revert what was made like iron rods turn into iron plates but no it makes you money…

Love the story and the factory building, is satisfying and interesting. Unfortunately several bugs are INCREDIBLY frustrating, namely the inability to complete contracts (as they sometimes get stuck), and the level 4 underwell pit expands the space inside but doesn’t let you place any more structures, making it impossible to gain everstone with the higher enemy spawns. The in transit and storage menus are too small on the phone and it’s difficult/near impossible to scroll or drag resources around. Without these few issues this game would easily be 5 stars, I’ve been playing a long time and you’ve got a great thing going. Keep up the work devs! You made a great product, it just needs some love.Edit: The newest update is fantastic. Splitting up individual storage limits for each resource was a great idea, though it does mean you have to spend credits to increase those individual caps. However, being able to drag the transit and storage box out and maximize it to see each of the mentioned resource storage caps makes it so much easier to see what you have. It also seems as if the contract bugs have been fixed! There are still some minor crashing and optimization issues, but I love that you guys are still working so hard on this game. I’ve updated my rating to 5 stars.

I’ve played this game for about 5 months now and it is one of my favorite mobile games ever. I love the way it’s structured, with both contacts and objectives being different styles of goals to complete, and it has a good story to follow. It always feels like you’re expanding by unlocking some new technology or finding some new optimized way to produce something. The guidance for how to make things is very good and helpful up until level 18-19 when instructions for the oil and ink industry are virtually non existent. I also feel like the objectives “complete 10 contracts” become a bit repetitive after doing it 4 or 5 times. My final complaint is that you need to be level 22 in order to upgrade your Sandship the final time. But the game caps your experience at level 20! It feels like a beautiful game until level 18 or so when there seem to be a few holes and it feels generally unpolished for the last few machines/technologies. Minor endgame issues aside, this is one of the best mobile games I’ve played in YEARS and I’m extremely happy with it. It’s kept me engaged for 5 ish months now and I am very impressed with how few ads there were. I’ve recommended it to a few friends and they seem to be enjoying it too. Thank you Rockbite!

I have only played for a couple of hours but already have I been absolutely enchanted, charmed, and absorbed by this lil game. It’s well designed visually; I like ol’ Harvey and the machines are cute and the environment, wow! It’s well designed mechanically; everything builds up nicely (so far) and the materials contribute meaningfully to progression through the story, especially as you’re firing up the ship. The sound design is *chef’s kiss* delicious. I love the mix of synths and acoustic guitar giving the whole experience a gritty, futuristic feel but there are also nice little touches like how the production sounds get slightly muted when you’re in a sub menu inside one of the buildings. Details, man. They go a long way. Most importantly though, that very first lore item is truly what hooked me. The story of Harvey...sheesh what a read. It really went SO far to fleshing out the atmosphere and the character who before had just been a silly pop up tutorial guide but now I know he’s kinda...well, (spoiler alert) haunting the ship. What once was a cutesy Factorio clone—yea I’m on to you, devs ;)— suddenly elevated itself rapidly and very stylishly. My compliments to the team and I look forward to delving deeper into the sands!
