Judgement: Not Recommended
View review on Steam
A frustrating city builder/traffic management game about building a colony on an uninhabited planet. It is not complicated, the opposite actually, the supply chains for thing you gotta build to make you population happy are pretty simple. It is however incredibly annoying to deal with as the traffic management is awful with things never quite working as their should causing chaos everywhere. Considering 99% of this game is just dealing with traffic this is terrible.
The performance later in the game (15k+ population) is also absolutely terrible. I thought maybe it was because I was running the game on Linux via Proton (9.0-4), but someone else in the reviews confirmed the same problem. And it is not like I was running this on underpowered hardware either as I used a i9 9900k and a RTX 3090 which is way above what is recommended. It seems to be something to do with traffic specifically as it gets significantly worse when traffic is bad. I also had multiple crashes related to degraded performance but I am not sure if the game or Proton is at fault for that so I will not hold that one against the game. It did however highlight to me a different problem with the game which is the fact that you can not change how often the autosave saves, which is not often enough.
Save your money and don't bother. There is better games out there both for city building and for traffic management.
