It's good, I guessOn one hand, it’s really well made, the gameplay is original and the production values are through the roof for an indie game.
On the other hand, the gameplay is mostly focused on micro-managing linked towers and energy connections and it does get tedious after a while. There’s not much more strategy involved, so the outcome eventually comes to how willing you are to micro-manage a rapidly growing amount of tiny buildings.
Usually I’m losing the game just because I get tired of linking/un-linking countless towers and deliberately give up.
Still, it’s definitely worth a try. Especially as the demo gives enough content that it could as well be considered a smaller freeware version of Harvest.
