  • Great game but belt are way to slow.

    I first want to say how much I like this game. But I have my belts maxed out and they are way too slow to supply my factories. Also, the tier 4 extractors are too slow as well. There just isn’t enough either nodes to pull from or we need faster extractors. By the way I am trying to feed 9 manufacturers at a time. So needing 8 of one thing going into 9 manufactures the 72 items needed is taking way to long. Please fix this. I think it needs to be like 3 to 4 times as fast. OH. I still like this game.

    Update…. Playing in January 2022. Belts are still way too slow. Also, I have researched everything. Please make the belts like 4 times faster. Also, I have ran out of resources and the extractors are all level 5 and are still way to slow. Please fix this. Ill pay for that upgrade. Hook us up.

  • A Great Game, Needs One Thing To Make It Fantastic

    This is one of the best "Factorio-like" games available on the App Store. There's plenty to do, craft, and unlike in Factorio you don't need materials to make belts and other structures, just money, which I greatly appreciate.
    HOWEVER, this game need one additional structure for it to be a 5 star game, overflow gates. An overflow gate would basically be like a normal belt except when the throughput becomes stagnant it ejects the extra materials (the "overflow") to one or both sides (if belts are present). I know that this is a very specific request but overflow gates are an absolute staple for any kind of factory building game and I'd love if the devs could add it.
    Again, this is a great game already, lots of content, rewarding gameplay, logically and logistically challenging, and extremely helpful production stats for the late game (though I would love to be able to see individual stats on a spreadsheet showing like the last 10 minutes of the game)

    If you ever played Factorio or any other factory building game and enjoyed it then this is definitely for you!

  • Its fun, for a few days…..i’ll explain

    I loved the game. It appealed to my background in manufacturing also, applying supply chain and JIT(just in time). Of course its just a fun game without a manufacturing background, optimizing and balancing, the things that make all games food. For the first few days my ipad was on 24 hours a day running this game so i could progress. I am now making earth tokens, and i barely open the game. It NEEDS to ‘run’ when its not open. Its an idle game whether anyone wants to admit or not, so it needs to run when its not open.

    If the intention is to make money from this game, im afraid your profits will be low. I never saw the need to do the boost or where it would really yield anything at 5 minutes boosting gold and research, i didnt even use the free in game curency. Boosting ALL production, now that is something that sounds more appealing, speed EVERYTHING up, call it ‘overtime’ or something.

    It needs to run in the bacground. And i also believe the developer may need to find another way to monetize the game, profits are deserved.

  • Love it! Hoping it keeps getting developed!

    Since I got this game, I haven’t been able to stop playing it. It’s amazingly addicting and fun.
    As some have said, a couple of suggestions would be the ability to change directions of underground tunnels (probably easier said than done…), and maybe an intelligent split building. Ie), the belt splitter leaves little to work with, so maybe a small building on top that would allow the player to set basic parameters like 1 resource left for every 2 right.
    Would also love the ability to pause a buildings production from within rather than having to demolish a belt to stop it.

  • Great game, two things though

    So I’m not gonna tell you guys how great the game is so I would just check out another review but I will tell you this, I totally recommend this and it’s perfect (except for these two things I’m talking about) it’s no pay to win game or just your average kid scam. Okay so first off, when you research something you can’t make money off that thing you need to research (ex: 500 wooden frames to research tier two exactor, no making money once you do this but you can always cancel any time). You used to be able to do this but now you can’t. Even if this was intentional please add this back in please. And also please add the delete world button back I don’t want a million worlds I’m not gonna play on and search for 3 minutes just to find my world I actually wanna play on. Thank you for reading this, have a great day!

  • Great Potential

    The concept of the game is great, the UI is organized, and the graphics are unique. But, I’ve got a few problems. 1. Why can I only research one thing at a time. A huge part of this game is making an efficient and organized system, but there’s no purpose to this as you can only research one item. It would be great if I could research multiple items, motivating me to have multiple item outputs going into research all at once. 2. Some of this stuff really just takes too long. I don’t want to sit here for 30 minutes waiting to research faster conveyor speed, and then it barely has an effect. It’s not an afk game, which I’m totally fine with, yet the long waits make you sit afk, just with your device on. Which brings me to my third point, the game is very intensive in my device. I’m using an iPad that’s a few years old, and I can’t play the game when I’m not charging my iPad. It really overheats my device and simply turns of after 2-5 minutes if not charging. Like I said, great potential, but some research gimmicks are holding it back.

  • Great fun, but ….

    Fun, moderately challenging and a bit repetitive, but easy to get addicted to. Issue 1, the game only runs when it is actively running on you display. Since there is a lot of setting things up and letting them run (for hours), you are forced to leave your device plugged in and running for extended periods of time. Issue 2, when you get to the end, other than a screen that comes up to tell you that you can buy a new building, nothing happens! The building produces Earth Tokens which do nothing. I might play through a second time to do a better job building my network (Hint, think about moving your Research building farther and farther away, as you build out in one direction), but otherwise …. Developers, if you are listening, maybe achievements, challenges, competitive scoring, worlds with extra difficult terrain??? You could even charge me for extra content, if you fixed issue number 1!

  • Pretty good game overall, could be improved

    The game is really fun and I like how it makes you kind of think and figure things out. Couple of things I don’t like very much is that you can only have 1 research lab, makes it hard for all these items and conveyor belts to just go into 4 openings. I also dislike how you need to be in the app for it to continue to research and make money, I wish it would play in the background so I didn’t have to sit and wait for the research to be done. Thats all I have a problem with currently, the game is fun and I can find myself playing it for hours at a time. Just wish those simple things were fixed.

  • Fantastic factory management game with no ads!

    This game is awesome. I played a lot of factoryidle in high school during class, and wanted a similar experience for my phone. Other apps were either full of ads or just not fun.

    As you can see from the game photos, there's a second currency besides your normal money. This is only used to double your progress for a certain amount of time. At no point did I feel like I needed to use this however, as you can always be researching something new or redesigning your layout.

    All of the above is accurate as of when I posted it

  • So fun, one problem

    This game is so satisfying to put together and in the begging the gameplay flows so well. I was always making just enough money for equipment and soon as I finished putting together a path for my next upgrade, the one I was currently researching was done, always giving me something else to do. That was until around the time that I unlocked computers. Once I hit this point I was able to set up a super efficient system, but the output was really slow. This makes research take FOREVER, and the only real solution I found was letting the game run while I have my phone set aside. If this game had a few number tweaks and was able to run in the background it would perfect for hopping on a few times a day to tweak the system and then wait for the fruits of your labor. Outside of that I find it hard to stay engaged while the only game play at the moment is watching conveyor belts. Outside of this small gameplay halt, this is legit one of the best free games I’ve played since the golden age of mobile games. Thanks for making such an amazing, ad free game!!
