Kills the whole game. ### 2/5 — I can’t even get on the game *2026-08-21, version 1.14.1* I don’t know if it’s fun or good because I can’t even get on the game. ### 4/5 — Great game, but vital flaw *2026-08-10, version 1.14.1* Why can I only have 2 research centers when there are resources scattered all over the place? I have a ton of technology that I can’t research because the limit is 2, so I can’t exactly research everything because not everything is next to each other, forcing me to build conveyor belts to the nearest research center, which is nowhere near close to where the actual resource is and I don’t see a technology in here that allows me to have more than 2 at a time. Don’t get me wrong, great game, addictive even, but can we either increase the limit of research centers or get rid of it altogether? I get if you don’t want your map to be cluttered with research centers, but 2 seems too few. ### 4/5 — Very satisfactory factory game *2026-07-28, version 1.14.1* Great things about the game - Free with minimal ads - Very low amount of Idling and waiting tire upgrades - Simple and addictive - Fun progression that adds layers of complexity - Numbers are very linear and easy to calculate on the fly - Can be played offline Meh things about the game - Ad button is easy to mistap - Occasionally overwhelming Recommendations - Drones for long distance transport - Splitters that can differentiate between items - A drill or something in later game that functions as a resource node that can be placed anywhere Overall, I highly recommend this game, it’s one of the best free factory games I could find and does a great job of keeping your attention. ### 5/5 — achievement *2026-06-28* This is the best industrial game, but the "Factory Designer" achievement is not unlocking. I have placed 1,000 fences, but the achievement has not triggered, so this may be a bug. Please check or fix this issue. ### 5/5 — This games is so fun and addicting *2026-06-26, version 1.14.1* I have already played this games for like 4 hours and I only got it yesterday evening but I haven’t had a single forced ad but since I got this game I haven’t played any other game because this is just so fun and addicting I only stopped playing to write this review ### 5/5 — Factorio’s Younger Cousin *2026-06-25, version 1.14.1* Like the title implies- if you like Factorio; you’ll like this. The UI is sooooo smooth and it actually does some simplifying I WISH factorio did. 10/10 would recommend ### 5/5 — Its me bald *2026-06-08, version 1.14.1* Took a break from industrial and downloaded this for fun and oh my god its so good! like the other reviews, no ads at all! I like to watch the ores go through the conveyor belt ### 5/5 — i LOVE this game *2026-05-31, version 1.14.1* This is the closest to satisfactory (a factory game on steam) on mobile it's very fun i LOVE it ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-05-30, version 1.14.1* I’m addicted, been playing for like 12-13 hours total and unlocked maybe half of the games I think. This is super fun the challenge of strategy and everything is fun. Even better with the battery saving mode. The only thing I want is alternate belts. If I could have a 2 way split belt that would make my factory so much nicer looking but this game is fun ### 5/5 — 0 stars *2026-05-19, version 1.14.1* prob the best factory game out there I love this game -a superficial draw tool or shovel feature for marking the map would be really helpful for planning layouts -a weather or day/night cycle would liven the gameplay I always enjoy playing! Thx!! ### 4/5 — Needs to be a PC game *2026-05-17, version 1.14.1* This game has the best mobile interface, crafting the roads would normally be impossible on a mobile game but they make it seemless. Its impressive what they have done with a touch game, that being said its still to much tech that needs to be fit onto a map, and that map is on a phone so its better to play on an ipad or play a pc version ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2026-05-16, version 1.14.1* Spent hours the first time I started playing it. The more I played the lore interesting it got. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-05-10, version 1.14.1* I just finished it and it was amazing it is no WiFi required and it’s a amazing time waster as you just get sucked into these sessions of play and there’s no pay to win or adds besides the gems but you don’t need them I’ve been playing for 3 years and how big my island is is insane this game is great ### 4/5 — Great game! *2026-05-07, version 1.14.1* Loved the challenge. As the game became more complicated it was less enjoyable. Keep the challenge but loose the frustration. Otherwise it is one of the best games for using the great cells. Well done … ### 5/5 — Great time killer! *2026-05-05, version 1.14.1* This game appealed to me immediately and I played it nonstop the last time I was ill and needed a distraction. The game moves at an appropriate pace and one can get immersed in making things more efficient. And, it is addictive. I’ve built multiple worlds now, hoping to improve productivity from previous errors. I do wish there was more to unlock because I’ve abandoned a few worlds after unlocking everything. I still pick this up after six years or more of play and find myself falling in love with it all over again. I’d love to see a variation of this game! ### 5/5 — Loved it more than my kid for way too many hours. *2026-04-27, version 1.14.1* Spent ages addicted to this game. It was seriously one of the best games I’ve played on the iPad - free. No ads. Strategic. Just enough challenge to keep you working for the next thing. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-08-22, version 1.14.1* For some reason the app keeps on sending me out over and over again ### 1/5 — Copy *2026-06-29, version 1.14.1* This is a pretty fun game but it is very similar to Satisfactory in a lot of the endgame progression ### 1/5 — How? *2026-05-19, version 1.14.1* It's to confusing ### 1/5 — Don’t play this *2026-03-24, version 1.14.1* Yes the progress is nice, until you hit the ‘mid tier’, then you discover the option of new world, with added benefits, which costs $20. If you are trying to play this as a free to play, good luck and god speed, they want you to buy the expansion because the recipes become increasingly confusing and difficult. Avoid this money grabbing game at all costs. ### 1/5 — Отзыв *2026-01-31, version 1.14.1* 24 доллар реально дорога за эту игру, она в стиме стоит 400 рублей всего Почему такая разница в цене не пойму ### 1/5 — iOS 12 ready ? Not good *2026-01-22, version 1.14.1* 🤔😢 c’est pas sympa de couper la super partie après la maj ios 😡 ### 1/5 — App Will not open *2026-01-15, version 1.14.1* I’m on an iPad min gen 1 (I think) but running iOS 12.5.7, the app will not open after download. The icon expands to fill the screen then jumps back to home screen. Supposedly I have the correct iOS so compatibility isn’t supposed to be an issue. The game sounds super fun. ### 1/5 — I can’t get in the game *2025-12-26, version 1.14.1* It just crashes when I try to open the game. ### 1/5 — Terrible community, game might aswell be abandoned. *2025-12-26, version 1.14.1* Tedious to play, massive potential in the right hands Developer is clearly done with actually updating the game. Couple of years back I left a lot of extremely valuable suggestions, they banned me from the discord without warning and without any possible sound reason. ### 1/5 — Connecting conveyor belts is too confusing *2025-12-04, version 1.14.1* Gave up dealing with the confusing interface ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — keep updating this game!! *2026-09-01, version 1.14.1* This game is honestly a hidden gem, a game where you can grind and play ad free. Would highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Thank you!! *2026-08-31, version 1.14.1* For making such a great game and not forcing ads on us! The gameplay is fantastic with everything I was hoping for and more!! 1000% recommend. ### 5/5 — Please read developers *2026-08-28, version 1.14.1* Just an amazing game. Ads are all optional but aren’t broken like other games. It is basically the industry version of cities skylines but for free. You don’t have to wait long to progress, only you carry your progression. And it follows a “get it yourself” approach to progressing rather than an idling. My only criticism is the tech tree is a bit small and easy to complete. ### 5/5 — Bro- *2026-08-22, version 1.14.1* This is genuinely the most fun I've had with a mobile game in I don't know how long. It's so satisfying, well paced, and just good. It's a good game, shoutout devs. 10/10, spending probably too much time playing it. ### 5/5 — FIVE STAR!!! NO QUESTIONS *2026-07-24, version 1.14.1* I really love the game because you build the way you want to and there are infinite possibilities. I have this game and play it every time we go in the car. No Wi-Fi makes it perfect. I have grounded this game for longer than I can remember and im still not getting a hint of boredom. You just start building and then have to figure out how to put more and more conveyors. And the same rules keep applying and you expand. Please make more games like this. ### 5/5 — Honest, great, immersive game! *2026-07-22, version 1.14.1* I began playing this game during a hospital stay in 2021. Five years later I am still enjoying this game. There are adverts interrupting your gameplay. I have honestly spent hours playing this. Usually, I am a PC gamer and love these types of games, but it was great to have one on the move. I have never written a review for any app ever before, but this one is worthy of a few minutes write up. No other game I have ever found on a tablet offers what this does. I have only ever found one game that offered a similar amount of gameplay, but the devs caught on and it quickly became filled with micro purchases. Well done to the devs on this for keeping it the way it is. ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-07-16, version 1.14.1* This game is so simple, it proves that even a simple game like this can be so much fun to play. I like how you have to balance producing high level objects and also more simple things to progress, e.g a metal box is worth $12 but a cog is only worth $4, but to get an object worth $15 you have to produce cogs. Genius. I highly recommend for people who enjoy laid back production games, and also those who also love trying to make something then work on efficiency. Great job with the game devs! ### 5/5 — Almost Perfect! *2026-07-11, version 1.14.1* This is not an “idle” style game, it’s engaging and requires constant tweaking with careful planning and problem solving to proceed, so there’s no waiting with nothing to do, or having to come back later in the day to see if stocks have built up. I love that it doesn’t run while you’re not in the game … when you come back to it there are no heaps of resources to attempt to manage, so there’s no stressful time targets either. Overall it’s a beautifully balanced game, with no immediate need to watch ads, although that need does arise gently if you wish to progress further. As said by others - the user interface (esp. when building on the map) is a delight to use and works flawlessly. I give it 5 stars and highly recommend to anyone with a logical mindset. My only complaint was no “Deny All” button immediately after install - resulting in me having to turn off pages of consent buttons just to deny them access to my data. ### 5/5 — Best Mobile Game *2026-07-09, version 1.14.1* Almost every other mobile game is riddled with ads, or is locked behind significant paywalls with “gems”. This game is amazing! I love the gameplay and the lack of ads. I appreciate the 1 ad = 4 gems deal, as it gives a way for the developers to make money and for you to get gems. ### 5/5 — Perfection *2026-07-04, version 1.14.1* This is THE best game for anyone who likes strategy, level up games, and sorting stuff into the right place. It’s free, the ads are completely optional for gems only, no forced ads which is so rare these days! It seems to work offline, and yet always saves my progress to let me carry on later exactly where I left it. Great if you only have a few minutes, while also being utterly satisfying for hours when you have more time to play. Download it now!!! I just completed the game after 40 hours and I’m excited to do it all over again! Thank you. To the devs for a great game, good quality and perfectly executed! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
